Story Foundation is a blockchain-based platform for registering and managing intellectual property. It allows users to assign machine-readable license terms, track attribution, and automate royalty distribution for derivative works through its “Proof-of-Creativity” protocol. The system supports programmable, legally enforceable licensing and enables tokenization of IP assets for trading, staking, and portfolio creation. On-chain enforcement mechanisms help manage license compliance, attribution, and royalty payments in interconnected IP networks.
