Strictly investigating witches, is the Story Protocol Odyssey worth interacting with?

Written by: Karen, Foresight News

On November 8, at 00:00 Beijing time, the on-chain IP protocol Story Protocol officially launched its final testnet Odyssey, currently with nearly 100 ecosystem partners. Some collaborating projects have launched badge programs in advance, while others will follow suit in the coming weeks.

Meanwhile, Story Protocol reviewed the participation in the first public testnet Iliad. During the Iliad test, a total of 247 million transactions were generated, attracting 21 million wallets, and successfully registering over 1 million IP assets on its proof of concept (PoC) protocol. Notably, the Iliad testnet will cease operations on November 24.

So, is the Story Protocol really worth user interaction? Story has made it clear that they strongly oppose farmers (score manipulators), witch attacks, and automated activities, which will not receive any rewards. Instead, they value real feedback from genuine community members about real issues.

Considering the Gitcoin PoH score requirement for claiming test coins and testnet badges, as well as the need for email login for some applications within the Story ecosystem, and some projects setting a minimum IP interaction limit during interaction, this may not be an ideal airdrop interaction choice. However, for a user intending to participate and experience its ecosystem, such interactions are still worth a try.

1, Claim Odyssey testnet IP tokens. To claim test coins, you need to verify Gitcoin PoH (greater than 5 points).
