What Is Story ($IP)?​

Story is a Layer 1 (L1) blockchain designed to serve as the foundation for intellectual property (IP) on the internet. It enables creators to register, license, and monetize their IP assets seamlessly. By leveraging blockchain technology, Story provides a transparent and efficient framework for IP attribution, licensing, and commercialization.

$IP is the native utility token used for:

• Paying transaction fees (gas) on the Story blockchain.
  
  
• Registering and validating intellectual property assets (IPAs).
  
  
• Licensing IP assets and obtaining commercial rights.
  
  
• Participating in governance decisions for the Story ecosystem.
  
  
• Staking for network security and validation.
  
  
• Enabling revenue-sharing and royalty distribution for IP owners.
  

Story tools include:

• Story Explorer – A user interface for discovering registered IP assets.
  
  
• StoryKit – White-label UI tooling for ecosystem developers.
  
  
• IP Hub – A central repository for IP registration and management.
  
  
• Licensing Module – Facilitates permissionless IP licensing and monetization.
  
  
• Dispute Module – Allows for staking-based IP disputes and resolution.
