Story has chosen a strategically significant position in the AI track, namely building an infrastructure layer for IP asset management. According to a Brand Finance report, the total global value of IP assets amounts to $61.9 trillion, indicating a vast market that Story can serve. High-quality IPs are scarce, and with the support of Story’s traceability technology, they can become a new form of value storage. The Story team is located in the heart of Silicon Valley, adjacent to other top Web3 projects, enjoying unique advantages in talent and resources. Currently, Story is the only platform that deeply focuses on the IP layer and has built an IP-based AI ecosystem, unique in both Web2 and Web3.
