Imagine scrolling through your feed and seeing a claim pop up, maybe it’s about skyrocketing vaccine death rates, or a viral video showing a bear wandering down Wall Street. Now picture an army of little AI helpers quietly buzzing in the background, double‑checking every fact, logging their sources, and stamping their verdicts onto a public ledger for anyone to inspect. That’s exactly what Swarm Network’s Rollup.News is all about, and today they’re making it even more bulletproof by plugging into Walrus, the new decentralized data layer on Sui.
Rollup.News has been quietly building this social‑media fact‑checker for a bit now. Its network of AI agents watches for bold claims, gathers evidence, debates among themselves, and then writes a consensus‑backed “yes, that’s true” or “nope, false” directly to the blockchain. But as these agents chew through more videos, screenshots, and long‑winded arguments, Swarm ran into a snag: traditional databases just couldn’t keep up while guaranteeing permanent, censorship‑resistant storage.
Enter Walrus. Think of it as a super‑durable library for media‑rich files—videos, images, audio clips, you name it—where every book is cryptographically sealed, and only you hold the key. Swarm is starting off by shoving its raw claims data into Walrus; next on the docket are the internal chat logs of its AI agents, the piles of evidence they’ve gathered, and all those little reasoning snippets that led to a final verdict.#walrus @Walrus 🦭/acc
