Walrus (WAL) is quickly becoming one of the most interesting infrastructure stories in crypto and not just because it’s tradable on big exchanges like Binance. At its core, Walrus is about solving a real Web3 problem: how to store, verify, and share large amounts of data in a decentralized way without relying on centralized cloud services. Instead of forcing apps to save heavy files directly on chain, Walrus splits data into fragments and distributes them across many nodes, making storage more cost‑efficient and resilient.
Built on the Sui blockchain, Walrus is designed for modern applications that need reliable, censorship‑resistant data from decentralized apps and NFT media to AI datasets and complex Web3 systems. Developers can integrate storage directly into smart contracts, and files can be reconstructed even if some nodes go offline.
The WAL token is central to the ecosystem. It’s used to pay for decentralized storage services, stake or delegate for network security, and participate in governance decisions. Token holders help secure the network and can vote on future protocol parameters
