IP Type: Distinguishes IP kind (patent, trademark, story, etc.).
Title/Name: Descriptive title of the IP asset.
Description: Summary of the IP asset's nature.
Owner: Original IP rights holder or first registrant.
Royalty Receiver: Designated address to receive royalty payments.
IPAsset Account: The mapping of the IPAsset account using EIP-6551. Owner account of license and royalty NFTs.
Date of Creation/Invention: The date when the IP was first created or invented. May not be the timestamp of registration.
Registration/Application Date: The date when the IP was formally applied for or registered (if applicable). Could be the same as date of creation if the franchise has no approval process.
Registration/IP Number: If the IP is registered, its unique registration number generated by Story Protocol, such like chain_id:franchise_id:ip_asset_id
Expiration Date: For assets like patents or trademarks that have a finite protection period, the date when the protection expires. The decision shall be governed by the franchise owner.
Status: Current status of the IP (e.g., active, expired, pending application).
Media URL: Any relevant images associated with the IP. The media can be saved off-chain like IPFS/Arweave.
Licensing Information: Document about any licensing agreements, restrictions, or permissions related to the IP. This could link to a well known public license or purely private license module. This has to be associated with the license module implementation.
References/Citations: For patents, this could be related patents or prior art. For copyrights, it could be sources or inspirations. The real reference could be saved on off-chain storage or reference to external data source guarded by oracle using CCIP. We could use a new relationship like REFERENCE_TO module to relate various IP Assets. Q: how to support external, off-chain reference, such like arXiv link?
Notes: Miscellaneous notes or comments about the IP. Off-chain data.
Revision ID/History: A log of changes made to the IP record, including dates and details of the revisions. History can be saved off-chain while revision ID will be saved on-chain.
Please see this document for the proposed metadata on-chain.
