Why Blockchain Publishing?


Since the Comics Code was introduced decades ago, the powerful messaging of comics has been controlled. 

Even today, comics and creators that don’t fit within modern societal ideals are canceled, deplatformed, funds are withheld from crowd-funding, and more. 

Our mission is to let creators tell their stories, without censorship. And blockchain is the technology that makes this possible.


How Blockchain Works


Blockchain runs separate from any banking system and does not need approval from banks or ecommerce merchants. Anyone in the world can use an exchange, like Coinbase or Transak, to purchase cryptocurrency. This currency becomes a simple transaction between two people, no bank or middleman involved. 


The transaction is recorded on the blockchain and is essentially immutable (meaning it can’t be altered or hacked). 


Benefits of Blockchain


By publishing your comic on the blockchain, you are making it digitally collectible. As the buyer of a blockchain comic, you can collect or resell your comics.

Every time a comic is resold, the original creator earns royalties from the resale.

Creators can publish what they want, without fear of being censored. 


The Downside of Blockchain


This is still a new technology, and it can be hard to understand and trust. 

Blockchain books must be purchased using cryptocurrency. Collectors must purchase cryptocurrency through an exchange, such as Coinbase or Transak. Learn more about this process here.

We are working hard to simplify this process. As more industries use blockchain, and more people make purchases with cryptocurrency, this tech will continue to grow.

Help us bring change to the comic book industry and support indie creators.

Question
Are there any fees to upload my comic? 
Answer

You can upload your comic or art to the Marketplace for free. 

There are several options for publishing your book in the CryptoComics Marketplace. It is free to publish off-chain digital books, or to make your book available for borrowing in the CryptoComics Library.

There may be a "gas" fee for publishing to certain blockchains. Currently, we do not charge for publishing to the Polygon blockchain.

Gas is the fee required to successfully conduct a transaction or execute a contract on the blockchain platform.  Gas is used to pay validators for the resources needed to conduct transactions. If a gas fee is required to publish a book, you will see the amount required prior to publishing, or you can choose to publish using any of the free publishing options that are available.
