Footsteps of Story Validators

Hey validators :waving_hand:

Endorphine Stake team is excited to present a special initiative for Story Foundation — a physical journal titled “Footsteps of Story Validators”, dedicated to sharing the personal stories of the validators supporting the network.

The journal will feature interviews and articles in print format, highlighting the experiences, success stories, failures, service activities and personal insights of those who have supported the network since its inception. Information will be collected via a Google Form. For the first release, we are targeting only the @ActiveSet.

Each personal story is divided into several sections:

  1. Introduction

Provide general information about your team — size, social links, Total Value Locked (TVL), etc.

  1. Story Journey

This section focuses on your direct participation in the Story network: when you joined, which networks you’ve run, details about your infrastructure, tools you developed, etc.

  1. Deeper Reflections

This is the main section — it includes personal reflections from validators about the network, proposals, technical challenges, and future plans.

  • Have you encountered intellectual property issues within traditional Web2 systems?

  • Do you support the proposal to reduce the 1024 IP staking minimum?

Form deadline: Nov 17

You don’t have to answer every question, but you’re welcome to — the more details you share, the more of your story we can include. Our team may lightly edit your submission for clarity without changing its meaning. A marketing chat will be created with each team after form submission to confirm all details.

Join us by sharing your experiences — your stories will soon be featured at Story’s headquarters.

Hi Karlo, love this initiative! We recently joined the Story validator set and would love to share our journey and reflections. Do you think there’s still time to submit a new response? Thanks in advance!

Hey @Stakely! Not anymore - the deadline has passed, and the first issue has already been printed and is on its way to Story HQ.

Hi Karlo, love this initiative — great to see this level of transparency and structure from the Story team.

We recently joined the Story community and validator set as SenseiNode and would be happy to share our perspective and early learnings from operating and contributing to other ecosystems and now to Story. I realize there may no longer be time to participate in this round, but we’d love to be included in the next initiative if possible.

Thanks in advance!
