I’m looking at Walrus as a long-term systems project rather than a short-term narrative. It’s designed on the Sui blockchain to solve one practical issue: blockchains are inefficient for storing large amounts of data. Walrus handles this by using blob storage combined with erasure coding. Files are broken into many fragments and distributed across a decentralized set of storage providers. Even if some fragments are unavailable, the original data can still be reconstructed. This improves resilience and lowers reliance on single servers. From a user or developer point of view, the protocol can be used to store application data, archives, or large files while keeping on-chain verification and coordination. WAL is the native token that supports staking, governance, and economic incentives for the network. I’m seeing it as a base layer that other apps can quietly depend on rather than something end users constantly think about. The long-term goal looks like creating a decentralized alternative to cloud storage that works smoothly with on-chain apps. If they execute well, it becomes background infrastructure rather than a visible product.
