Story Protocol
Aeneid Testnet
Story is making the legal system for creative Intellectual Property (IP) more efficient by turning IP "programmable" on the blockchain. To do this, we have created Story Network: a purpose-built layer 1 blockchain where people or programs alike can license, remix, and monetize IP according to transparent terms set by creators themselves.

Create a validator
View validator key
story validator exportExport EVM private key
story validator export --export-evm-keyYou can import the private key into an EVM wallet
For create the validator, we need 1024 $IP token.
Form
We ask interested teams to complete this form here for testnet token (this is not gated) https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdCgT7rSxGTkWXbBjzAZco8UyTBuTtjb87s5k0BEp5n6PF6jA/viewform Submission is also required to receive Aeneid tokens.
Create a validator
Move your txt file to .env file with your private key
mv $HOME/.story/story/config/private_key.txt $HOME/.envCreate validator, locked:
story validator create --stake 1024000000000000000000 --moniker $MONIKER --rpc https://aeneid.storyrpc.io --chain-id 1315 --unlocked=falseOr create validator, unlocked:
