AI-based blockchain project Story has partnered with exchange Bithumb to embark on a liquidity expansion strategy centered on staking events. Beyond simple listing, the plan is to attract users and boost trading activity simultaneously through marketing that combines an 'interest-bearing reward structure'.

According to the industry on April 22, Story, in collaboration with Bithumb, will hold a 'Receive Coin Interest' event for 'Story (IP)' tokens. The event will run from April 21 to 27, with a total scale of 200 million won, and is open to all users of Bithumb's flexible staking service.

Flexible staking is a structure that allows assets to be deposited while still being freely traded. Users can receive rewards simply by holding tokens without a separate lock-up, making it more accessible than traditional staking. Currently, Bithumb applies this service to 15 assets, including Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Tron (TRX).

This promotion consists of two methods. First, rewards will be distributed differentially to a total of 5,000 users who increase their net holdings by depositing IP during the event period. Net deposit volume is calculated based on deposits minus withdrawals. At the same time, additional rewards will be given to all users who net purchased IP worth 100,000 won or more, and duplicate participation in the event is also possible.

The industry interprets this event as an 'exchange-based liquidity expansion strategy'. It is evaluated as a structure that naturally boosts trading volume and holdings by simultaneously providing staking rewards and purchase incentives. In particular, the key is that, due to the nature of flexible staking, it can simultaneously absorb demand for short-term trading and long-term holding.

Story plans to accelerate the expansion of the IP ecosystem through this event. Story aims to be a 'programmable IP infrastructure' that redesigns the registration, licensing, and monetization of intellectual property (IP) in the AI era based on blockchain, and is currently traded on major domestic and international exchanges.
