Imagine if a future archaeologist wants to study human civilization of the 21st century, where would they find the memories of this era? Traditional libraries can only preserve paper documents, but Walrus Protocol goes further — it turns data preservation into a self-sustaining ecosystem through economic incentives.
The core logic is actually quite simple: through the incentive cycle of WAL tokens, valuable historical documents, personal memories, and important information can be spontaneously maintained by network nodes. Node operators earn rewards for participating in validation and storage, and users benefit from information being permanently protected. One hundred years later, one thousand years later, as long as the economic model is still running, this data remains alive.
This is not just technological innovation; it’s like building an "ark of eternity" for digital heritage. Information no longer disappears when servers shut down, precious knowledge transcends time and space, truly immortal.
