The various registries on Story function as a primary directory/storage for the global states of the protocol. Obviously, they also contain functions to update that storage. Unlike ⚙️ IP Accounts, which manage the state of specific IPs, a registry oversees the broader states of the protocol.

​
Types of Registries

Below are all of the registries on Story.

​
IP Asset Registry

Responsible for registering IPs into the protocol.

​
Group IP Asset Registry

Responsible for registering and maintaining Group IP Assets.

​
License Registry

Stores all license-related states within the protocol, like attaching License Terms to IP Assets, registering derivatives, creating new License Templates, etc.

​
Module Registry

Maintains and updates the global list of modules and hooks registered permissionlessly on Story
