Story Network

Story Network is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain, combining the best from EVM and Cosmos SDK. It is fully EVM-compatible with deep execution layer optimizations supporting graph data structures to handle complex IP data structures. The current Intellectual Property(IP) system faces significant challenges in protecting, licensing, and monetizing creators' work, especially in the digital age. Traditional methods are costly, slow, and often require legal intervention, making them inaccessible for many creators. Additionally, the rise of AI-generated content has outpaced the current IP framework, leading to issues with infringement and unscalable licensing practices. Story is building a programmable Intellectual Property legal system on the blockchain, allowing creators to protect, license, and monetize IP transparently. The three elements that define Story are Story L1 Network, Proof of Creativity Protocol(smart contracts), and Programmable IP Licenses.
