Walrus is a project built around a simple idea that data should not depend on one company or one server to survive. I’m drawn to it because it focuses on storage, which is something most people rely on every day without thinking about it. They’re building a system where large files are broken into pieces and spread across a decentralized network, so data can still be recovered even if parts of the network fail.
Instead of putting all data directly on a blockchain, Walrus uses the Sui blockchain mainly for coordination, payments, and verification. The actual data lives in a separate storage layer designed to handle large files efficiently. This keeps costs lower and performance more stable.
The WAL token is used to pay for storage, support node operators, and take part in governance. I see this as a way to align users and operators around long term reliability. The purpose behind Walrus is not speed or hype. It is about building storage that is resilient, private when needed, and usable for real applications over time.
