Everyone talks about AI crypto, but forgets the boring-but-critical part: where the hell does all that massive training data live without getting censored or costing a fortune?

That's why $WAL keeps pulling me back in. Walrus Protocol on Sui is solving programmable decentralized storage at scale – cheap, resilient blobs for videos, models, NFTs, whatever. Recent rebound from 11.5¢ low to $0.15+ area isn't hype; it's adoption signals. Daily unlocks are there, sure, but usage growth (think Pudgy Penguins integration + new RFP for event platforms) is offsetting pressure.

Been modeling scenarios: if AI/Web3 media demand spikes like expected in 2026, storage fees paid in $WAL create natural buy-and-burn dynamics. Stakers get rewarded, nodes stay incentivized, and holders win on network effects. I rotated some profits from other Sui plays into this – feels like early Filecoin vibes but faster and cheaper.

Not saying it's guaranteed, but after months of research, this is one of the few with actual product-market fit in a trillion-dollar data economy. Load up before the masses notice.
