To understand why $WAL has so much potential, we need to look under the hood. Most current storage networks suffer from a problem: they're either slow or extremely expensive. Walrus Protocol breaks this paradigm thanks to a technical innovation called Red Stuff.
What is Red Stuff and why should you care?
In simple terms, Red Stuff is a next-generation erasure coding algorithm. Imagine you want to save an important photo. Instead of simply copying it to multiple servers (which is inefficient), Red Stuff breaks it into smart pieces.
