Story Protocol

We're #hiring an exceptional designer with 3D & motion design experience! Join our team and help tell the story of Programmable IP

We're hiring a Visual Designer with 3D & Motion experience as contract at Story Protocol. Exciting opportunity for visual designers in the web3 space. Please apply if you have 3D & Motion experience only. Thanks! #design #visualdesignjobs #visualdesignerjobs #3dmotion #designjobs

Story Protocol is building the Programmable Intellectual Property layer. This will enable IPs to compose, remix, and monetize via onchain parameters set by creators. By turning code into law, we can catalyze creativity. Read our latest blog to learn about the onchain renaissance: Programmable IP.

Connect with top builders, debate the boldest ideas, and unwind in style at ETHDenver. Co-hosted by Orange DAO and Hashed It's not just networking, it's where ideas ignite! #OnchainRenaissance RSVP Today: https://lu.ma/4a4px58z

🚨 We're excited to announce that Story Protocol is a finalist for Consensus' first-ever community-proposed sessions! There are 46 finalists in the group, and now we need your help to make sure we get a chance to talk about the future of IP as a platform. All you have to do is vote here, a quick and easy process: https://lnkd.in/gyyVTz45 Thank you, we hope we can be a part of one of the best #blockchain annual events with some help from our community!

We’re hiring our first PM at Story! If you or anyone you know are interested please send them my way. I also know many layoffs happened recently, would love to connect with anyone who is looking for a PM role. 🙏

We're #Hiring! We're looking to hire our first #ProductManager to help guide protocol and #smartcontract design. If you want to help create a paradigm shift in the the way IP and creativity work in today's age, take a look and apply today!

So, how can Story Protocol help a narrative universe creator grow their IP? Let’s say you have a vast world full of unique characters and intricate plotlines, but limited resources. How do you find other collaborators? How do you set the rules of engagement and reward them? On Story Protocol, you might start by compiling a “world bible,” a comprehensive guide that outlines the key elements of your universe. In the world bible, you define the key characters, items, artifacts, plots and any details you want. This serves as the foundation. Since you have true ownership over the IP, you can decide how to collaborate with different types of contributors. A professional writer, who creates a compelling side story for one of your secondary characters, will be able to license this character, based on terms you set. Or, maybe someone wants to expand your narrative. They can propose storylines and you decide whether they are accepted into canon. These will be transparently tracked and attributed to its rightful author, ensuring contributors can be recognized (and rewarded, where applicable) While these are just a few examples, Story Protocol’s infrastructure and the applications built on top of it opens the door to a myriad of opportunities where fans and collaborators can enrich the original IP while you, the original creator, maintains ownership and control.

Our Alpha Hackathon concluded with a bang! 💥 🌍 We had people from Guatemala, UK, Italy, and one person even flew 35 hours from South Africa to join us for the event! Even though we purposefully kept participation to 20 people, we wound up with nine teams presenting their projects for almost three hours. The breadth of use cases went beyond our expectations, given it was only a two-day hackathon (Gen-AI, ZK proof, IP graph, social remixing, licensing pools, etc.) Below are some of the projects we found particularly interesting: 💬 Webthreen: This incorporates generative AI and Story as the web3 Webtoon to lower the barrier for visual storytelling and co-creation (character, scene, multi-media experience). Each component is automatically registered as an IP Asset on Story and is easily licensable to studios, collaborators, or the community. 👤 ZkKYC: Leveraging the power of succinct ZK proofs, this project can connect with existing major platforms like Coinbase or government platforms to provide proofs of KYC without revealing information. Whether for licensing requirements or capital formation (royalty pools), builders on Story can leverage the hook feature, along with service providers, to connect off-chain data with on-chain requirements. 🛒 7007 Studio: Presented a Gen-AI marketplace that assists artists in creating their own fine-tuned model and provides monetization opportunities by leveraging https://lnkd.in/gENuAZn8, an ERC-721 extension interface for zkML based AIGC-NFTs. Each output asset is automatically registered as IP Asset on Story, providing clear attribution for the model usage and potential revenue distribution. Thank you to the incredible talent and thoughtful builders who joined us to dig into Story Protocol in such an exciting way to close out 2023!

We think about Nouns and Verbs a little different here at Story Protocol! Our protocol architecture consists of two elements: data structures and modules. The data structures are the “nouns” of the protocol, storing relevant IP metadata into “IP legos.” The modules are the “verbs,” enabling a diverse array of functionality for the IP assets registered on the protocol. Story Protocol’s data structures capture the core components of IP, and its modules represent the operations that can be performed on the data structures. The data structures (“nouns”) address the first fundamental requirement of internet-native IP by providing a technical standard for tracking provenance and attribution. This standardization makes it simple for any application to leverage our data structures as a global source of provenance. Our modules (“verbs”) address the second requirement of internet-native IP by enabling frictionless extension of IP. Once IP is captured in our IP legos, it can be composed and expanded through our modules. Modules are functions that unlock an array of abilities like licensing, revenue streams from derivative works, and access to global capital. And with that, we can't wait to see the amazing lego kits creators put together with Story Protocol!
