STOP Measuring Data Protocols with Bank Metrics! 🤯
The old ways of valuing crypto are DEAD for the data economy. We are using lending pool TVL and DEX volume to judge decentralized cloud infrastructure. This is a massive analytical blind spot.
We are trying to measure the value of decentralized data storage with tools built for decentralized banking. This gap hides the real utility drivers: data integrity and sovereignty.
$WALRUS is the perfect case study for this shift. Forget the DeFi lens. $WALRUS is a foundational layer for the verifiable web, focused on secure, persistent data blob storage. Erasure coding breaks data into redundant shards.
