Grayscale Investments, the world’s leading digital asset management firm, has launched a new crypto investment product, the Grayscale Story Trust.
The product, announced on July 31, 2025, is designed to offer accredited investors access to a digital asset product allowing for exposure to Story Network’s native token IP.
Grayscale launches Story Trust
On July 31, 2025, Grayscale announced the launch of its Grayscale Story Trust, a product the asset manager says will expose investors to a project set to play a key role in the global intellectual property economy. Currently, the IP economy stands at over $80 trillion.
The Story network’s programmable IP focus aims to revolutionize the management, licensing, and monetization of intellectual property. Artificial intelligence (AI) and digital rights management are a major part of this growing market.
“Grayscale Story Trust gives investors exposure to a protocol shaping the foundational intellectual property layer for the information and AI era,” said Rayhaneh Sharif-Askary, head of product & research at Grayscale. “That includes not just creative content, but real-world data — the force powering one of today’s most advanced intelligent systems.”
IP price jumps 12% amid Grayscale news
Grayscale Investments has launched over 30 crypto investment products. Story Trust is the latest offering. It expands the firm’s diverse crypto offerings. However, there’s more.
The product also signals a pivotal moment for the integration of blockchain technology into the global IP market.
Story (IP) could be poised to lead this transformation, a scenario that could augur well for the native token’s price.
“The launch of Grayscale Story Trust reflects growing recognition that intellectual property, in all forms, has the potential to become one of the most important assets of the AI era. With $IP now available via a Grayscale Trust, investors can gain exposure to the infrastructure layer that enables programmable licensing and attribution across AI and creative applications,” said SY Lee, chief executive officer and co-founder of PIP Labs, a core contributor to Story.
As the Grayscale news broke, IP price jumped 8% to hit highs of $6.35 at the time of writing.
With sentiment bullish and altcoins looking to extend upside momentum, Story’s native token could edge towards February 2025 highs of $7.12. Currently, the token is looking at a five-month high and could allow bulls to target the all-time high of $7.33 reached on February 26.
