In an exciting move for blockchain developers, Ankr, a well-known provider of blockchain infrastructure, has announced a partnership with Story. Story is one of the most anticipated blockchain projects of 2024, boasting a $2.25 billion valuation. Further, it has a rapidly growing user base, with over 100 ecosystem partners actively building on their final testnet, Odyssey. Ankr’s collaboration with Story aims to streamline the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) on Story’s Layer-1 blockchain.
Developers worldwide will soon be able to leverage Ankr’s high-performance RPC connections to Story’s testnet and upcoming mainnet. From blueprints to video game characters, developers will be able to enable high-performance use cases for tokenizing various IPs in a decentralized manner.
Ankr will support Story builders in creating on-chain IP applications, by removing barriers. Story’s ecosystem, which has already attracted $24.7 million in project funding, will also become more empowered by this collaboration. In this advancement, Story further will realize its vision of reshaping IP ownership and monetization in the age of Web3 and AI.
Ankr Streamlining Blockchain Access for Story Developers
Ankr’s infrastructure simplifies development by providing free and premium RPC (Remote Procedure Call) endpoints. This means that the infrastructure provider will eliminate the need for developers to set up or manage their own Story nodes. Ankr’s RPC will allow builders and their dApps to easily submit transactions, check wallet balances, and interact with all on-chain data, making Story’s blockchain more accessible for the developers.
Chandler Song, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Ankr expressed excitement about the potential for this partnership:
“We’re excited to work with Story as they give developers every tool they’ll need to disrupt the IP industry that is so ripe for innovation now that we’ve entered the age of AI,” said Song. “Blockchain can uniquely turn the world of creative ownership on its head, but there is no room for error regarding the performance behind protocols proving their technological edge – that’s where Ankr comes in.”
Story Empowering IP Innovation in Web3 with Ankr
Weilei Yu, Story’s VP of Ecosystem, echoed Song’s enthusiasm. According to his statement, Ankr’s infrastructure will “supercharge and empower” developers building on Story’s IP blockchain. This partnership further highlights Ankr’s position with top networks like TON. Ankr’s reputation is expected to further solidify Story as the premier platform for IP-focused Web3 applications.
The collaboration between the two strong partners sets a new standard for blockchain infrastructure while also aligning with the mission of Web3 for redefining digital ownership and creativity in the IP industry. With the advancement of Story toward its mainnet launch with Ankr’s support, the decentralized ecosystem is poised for an influx of pioneering IP applications. These applications will transform the creation of intellectual property that will be safeguarded and monetized.
