#walrus$WAL Walrus introduces retrieval-proofed data as a new settlement surface for Sui-native applications, redefining how onchain data can be stored and verified. Instead of treating storage as a passive layer, Walrus makes data availability an active, provable component of application logic. Retrieval proofs ensure that stored data can be verified as accessible when needed, strengthening trust and reliability for developers. Built to integrate natively with Sui, Walrus enables scalable, cost-efficient storage for data-heavy use cases. This approach turns decentralized storage into a dependable settlement layer, expanding what Sui-based applications can securely achieve.
