Last week, we took the team to Đà Nẵng.
A little story🧵
→ May 25: we settled in, got a feel for the city.
Then headed to the Web3 Builders' Summit 2026 event hosted by @sqrDAO & DAVAS2026: good energy, good people 👋
→ May 26 & 27: OriginStake had a booth at DAVAS2026.
Two days of talking RPC, infra, and staking. We loved every minute. We met a ton of builders and had the kind of conversations you actually remember.
→ Night on May 26: we joined the Web3 DaNang Builders Meet-up hosted by @DashPay x @sqrDAO
Got to meet @DariaChernozub and the sqrDAO team in person - solid people, great vibes 🤝
Between the events, we explored the city, soaked in the atmosphere, and met some amazing people along the way.
Back in HCMC now. Back to the grind.
But honestly? Đà Nẵng still hasn't left us.
Until next time, Đà Nẵng 🌊

AI agents are making deals, coding, arguing onchain but who settles disputes when they disagree?
Introducing Testnet Bradbury.
Our validators don't just verify transactions, they reason about them with real LLM inference onchain.
We're not like the others.
✨ New look: The agentic era is here!
As this era unfolds, agents will observe, decide, transact, and execute tasks with real value on the line. The next generation of apps and agents will require trust built in.
That’s why we’re building EigenCloud, a verifiable cloud for the agentic economy.
In 1 year of Story mainnet:
▸ 5.6M+ IP registrations
▸ 90M+ transactions
▸ 13M+ onchain IP addresses
▸ 34k+ hours of real-world AI training data
▸ 405k+ data contributors worldwide
Happy 1 year anniversary, Story community.
In 2025, we built the foundation. Now we scale.
STORY v1.5.2 (HORACE) is now live on Mainnet
This major release recalibrates token emissions and updates the locked staking multiplier in accordance with SIP-00009.

Story Mainnet Maintenance Update
The upgrade is progressing as planned and remains on track within the scheduled maintenance window.
We’ll share the next update here and on Discord once the network is fully live.
🚨 Story Mainnet Maintenance Update. Chain Halted Successfully
Story Mainnet has been successfully halted at block 12,999,704 at 23:30 UTC. 14 January 2026, following coordinated action by Story validators, including OriginStake.
This halt marks the start of a major planned maintenance and upgrade, which includes:
🔹 Infrastructure Migration to AWS
Migration of core infrastructure to AWS to significantly improve network reliability, performance, and global availability.
🔹 Fusaka Upgrade. story-geth v1.2.0
Story is among the first EVM Layer 1 networks to adopt Ethereum’s latest Fusaka hard fork, incorporating EIP-7702 and other enhancements for improved wallet compatibility and future EVM alignment.
⏰ Expected downtime: 24 to 48 hours
📌 Note:
During this period, the network will be unavailable for transactions. Blockchain explorers will remain accessible in read-only mode.
The Story validator set and the Story technical team are actively coordinating the upgrade process. Real-time updates on network status and progress will be shared continuously through official channels.
We will publish a formal announcement as soon as maintenance is complete and the network is back online.
Thank you to all validators and partners for the smooth coordination and support. 💪
