GetBlock launches Story Network RPC nodes

GetBlock, a global multi-chain RPC provider, launches support for Story, an IP-native Layer 1 blockchain. GetBlock offers RPC solutions for Story with flexible deployment options and worldwide availability, enabling developers to build IP-powered applications with reliable node access.

TL;DR

GetBlock integrates the Story blockchain mainnet into its Web3 infrastructure services

The integration covers Story Mainnet with JSON-RPC protocol support at launch

Dedicated Story nodes can be deployed across three global regions (Frankfurt, New York, Singapore) for high-performance production workloads

Story blockchain RPC available on GetBlock

Story Network is now available as a managed node service inside GetBlock’s dashboard. 

With GetBlock, developers get instant access to Story's IP-native Layer 1 blockchain without managing infrastructure, enabling them to build applications for intellectual property licensing, royalty automation, and AI content monetization.

GetBlock users can get RPC endpoints immediately without running their own nodes within the Shared Node service. The service includes both full node and archive node access. Toggle archive mode to access Story's complete historical blockchain state from genesis, enabling deep queries for IP licensing analytics, royalty distribution tracking, and forensic investigations without dedicated infrastructure costs. GetBlock exposes Story via the standard JSON-RPC interface. 

For production workloads requiring guaranteed performance and resource isolation, Dedicated Story Nodes are available across three global regions: Frankfurt (Europe), New York (North America), and Singapore (Asia-Pacific). Teams can deploy private, single-tenant Story nodes – full and archive configurations – with custom SLAs and predictable latency for high-volume applications like IP indexers, blockchain explorers, and DeFi protocols. 

Dedicated nodes are provisioned through GetBlock's dashboard with flexible deployment options tailored to your infrastructure requirements

Quick start: Connecting to Story blockchain API

For most developers, the fastest way to start building on Story is through Shared Node endpoints. Get a ready-to-use Story JSON-RPC URL from your dashboard:

1

Go to Get Endpoint and search for Story

2

Enable archive mode for historical data access or keep the default full node mode setting

3

Generate and copy your JSON-RPC Story endpoint

How to get Story Network JSON-RPC URL

50,000 free daily Compute Units (CUs) included for all signed-in users. Scale to higher tiers starting from $39/month, or deploy dedicated Story nodes when your application demands predictable performance and resource isolation.

Deploying Dedicated Story nodes

GetBlock’s Dedicated nodes run on isolated hardware exclusively for your use case, providing predictable performance for high-volume applications.

Setting up your private Story node takes just a few steps:

1

Navigate to the Dedicated Nodes section of your dashboard

2

Select Story from the available blockchain networks

3

Choose your deployment region: Frankfurt, New York, or Singapore

4

Select node type: full or archive ​

5

Configure your plan duration and any additional infrastructure requirements

Submit your deployment request, and GetBlock provisions your dedicated Story node based on specifications.

What is Story Network?

Story is a purpose-built Layer-1 blockchain for intellectual property (IP), enabling on-chain registration, permissionless licensing, attribution, provenance, and automated monetization of IP assets. 

Technically, it’s an EVM-equivalent execution environment integrated with a Cosmos-style stack plus specialized cores (IP core, off-chain sync core, cross-chain core) that expose native primitives and optimized storage for IP graph operations.

Story natively models IP as an ERC-721 IP Asset paired with an associated IP Account, a modified ERC-6551 token-bound account. The network’s Proof-of-Creativity (PoC) protocol powers registration, lineage and genealogy tracking, embedded usage terms and royalties, and marketplace behaviours – making licensing and royalty flows automated and permissionless.

With the public mainnet launched in February 2025, Story already has over 5M IP registrations and an active ecosystem of creator platforms, AI-IP tooling, IP finance use cases, and DeFi dApps. The blockchain is backed by major VCs, including a16z crypto, Polychain Capital, Samsung Next, and Hashed.

Join the Story ecosystem with GetBlock

Story represents a fundamental shift in how we think about intellectual property in the digital age. As AI-generated content explodes and the lines between creators, derivatives, and rights holders become increasingly complex, having blockchain infrastructure purpose-built for IP management is groundbreaking. 

GetBlock is excited to support developers building on Story's IP-native architecture with the same reliable, globally distributed RPC infrastructure we provide for the entire Web3 ecosystem.

Story RPC endpoints are already live in your GetBlock dashboard. Access two free endpoints with your account, or scale to production-ready infrastructure starting from $39/month.
