Centralized cloud service monopolies over data storage have lasted too long. The Walrus protocol changes this situation— as a decentralized storage solution deployed on Sui, it uses Blob storage combined with erasure coding technology, making large file distribution both efficient and fault-tolerant.

Cost? Several times cheaper than traditional cloud services, with reliability that’s not compromised at all. Social applications, video platforms, corporate archives—these scenarios are all in high demand.

But Walrus’s real killer feature is privacy. Supporting private interactions and anonymous operations, user data remains completely clean, leaving no trace. This is especially important for sensitive scenes like DeFi.

How to use the $WAL token? Governance voting determines how the protocol evolves, staking incentivizes nodes to run and maintain the network, and ecosystem rewards attract developers to build. Now, Walrus has already penetrated several popular projects within the Sui ecosystem, and community enthusiasm continues to rise.

Looking ahead, cross-chain expansion and advanced encryption features are still on the way, making it even more competitive. The era of data sovereignty is coming, and $WAL might be the choice you don’t want to miss.
