Understanding the relationship between IP and Story

IP is a type of valuable asset with huge market potential. It includes various aspects such as brands, creative works, and technological achievements. From music, games, and brands to technological patents, even MEME or AI training data in the crypto field can be classified as IP. As an asset type, there is naturally a demand for issuance and trading of IP, which brings broad space for its application scenarios.

On-chain IP has essential differences from traditional IP. On the blockchain, IP becomes a programmable asset, granting owners greater control and profit potential. Story, as a platform focused on IP assets, derives its importance from this. It provides two main markets for IP assets: first, bringing off-chain IP assets on-chain, similar to the tokenization of physical assets (RWA); second, offering services such as issuance, trading, and management for on-chain IP assets.

The combination of Story and AI technology brings new possibilities to the IP market. It can not only become an important data source for AI training but also support AI agents in generating on-chain IP assets. At the same time, AI agents can also utilize the IP assets on Story, forming a mutually beneficial ecosystem. The core of this combination lies in the uniqueness of IP, which acts like the DNA of the digital world, providing valuable resources for AI model training.

Story is developing a framework that supports IP trading between AI agents, known as TCP/IP for AI agents. This framework aims to build a trading market between AI agents, allowing them to trade training data, creative styles, and even investment strategies with each other. This involves not only interactions between humans and AI agents but also direct trading between AI agents.

In the future, as the number of on-chain AI agents surges, the demand for interactions and transactions between them will also increase. The goal of Story is to target this emerging market by managing a large number of IPs through its TCP/IP framework, enabling direct interaction and transactions between AI agents without the need for trust and intermediaries. This will help create a brand new on-chain economic system, the success of which will largely depend on the overall scale of IP transactions among AI agents based on the Story platform.
