In the age of AI, $IP will play a critical role in tokenizing the $61T IP asset class.
58.4% of $IP will be devoted to Ecosystem & Community, Foundation, and Initial Incentives.
More on ꧁IP꧂👇
AI is transforming the $61T asset class of IP — from science to creative works.
The current IP system cannot scale to meet the explosion of intelligence that AI powers.
Story's Peer-to-Peer IP Network unleashes the latent value of IP, allowing ideas to be monetized seamlessly.
Just as Bitcoin was built to address the financial crisis,
Story exists to address the crisis in AI.
By liberating IP from the hands of a few centralized intermediaries, Story is creating a programmable market for intelligence to increase the intellectual output of humanity.
Story is a Turing-complete, purpose-built L1 at the intersection of AI and IP.
By making ꧁IP꧂ programmable, Story opens up a digital market for one of the world's most important assets.
And $IP is at the center of the Story ecosystem.
The $IP token serves several critical roles on Story's L1:
1. Stake $IP to secure the network 2. Transact on Story with $IP as the gas token 3. Steward the governance of the $IP ecosystem
$IP is burned with each transaction, which can result in deflation in some conditions.
$IP staking follows Fair Launch ideals:
Everyone starts earning staking rewards at the exact same time.
*No one* can earn staking rewards before the community does.
Only after the Big Bang, which concludes the Singularity Period, can staking rewards be received by any party.
$IP Distribution:
38.4% Ecosystem + Community
10% Initial Incentives
10% Foundation
21.6% Early Backers
20% Core Contributors

Story is not for farmers. We appreciate and cherish real community members giving real feedback on real problems.
We will always take a strong stance against airdrop farmers, sybils, automated activity, and other zero sum participants, who will not be rewarded.
The Story Protocol SDK allows you to contribute to the programmable IP layer in Javascript + Python.
Here are some of the most common functions 🧵
0. Setting up the SDK
Before we dive into any functions, you must properly set up the Story Client! This will work for both backend (ex. Node.js) & frontend (w/ Metamask) applications.
Any ERC-721 NFT can become IP by simply registering it into the protocol. You can also mint an NFT to represent a real-world asset, and then register that NFT.
