When a market that serious makes an exclusive bet that long, you pay attention

VC FIRM A16Z CRYPTO LOOKS TO RAISE FOR FIFTH FUND, TARGETING A SIZE OF $2B: BBG
2025 for me, @StoryProtocol is like an ex that makes you feel high and low
At first I was just after the Iliad testnet airdrop, ended up getting deeper the more I played
When I first saw on-chain someone actually sold an IP license for money, that shock of the asset coming alive gave me goosebumps
But when mainnet gas spiked, and unlock was delayed, I also cursed in the group, blood pressure went up a lot
This love‑hate interweaving made me see the awkward current situation:
We are rolling fiercely in Discord, but fundamentally it's still a stock PVP
I looked around, those coming for Remix, those dealing with IP, it's still our familiar faces
In 2026, I have only one wish:
Stop making us compete with each other, quickly launch some frictionless dApp to bring outsiders in
I don't want to see complicated cross‑chain tutorials anymore
What I want to see is:
A Douyin creator, a web novel author, who knows nothing about the three words "blockchain", earning money using Story's underlying layer
Only when "use" doesn't require "faith" does the real IP economy truly work
Otherwise, no matter how great the tech, it's just a geek's toy
Still the same words: Always Day 1
Infrastructure is mostly built, in 2026, please lower the barrier so we can see real incremental entry.
In 1 year of Story mainnet:
▸ 5.6M+ IP registrations
▸ 90M+ transactions
▸ 13M+ onchain IP addresses
▸ 34k+ hours of real-world AI training data
▸ 405k+ data contributors worldwide
Happy 1 year anniversary, Story community.
In 2025, we built the foundation. Now we scale. https://t.co/ubBFpHccDD
