San Francisco, CA – January 13, 2026 – The Walrus $WAL Ecosystem is buzzing with urgent news this week as a key front-end partner, Tusky, has announced its immediate shutdown. This development necessitates swift action from users and projects relying on Tusky for data storage, including popular NFT collections like Pudgy Penguins. Walrus has issued a critical advisory: all data must be migrated by January 19, 2026.

The sudden closure of Tusky, a familiar interface for many interacting with the Walrus decentralized storage network, highlights both the dynamic nature of Web3 and the inherent resilience of decentralized infrastructure. While the front-end is changing, the underlying data remains secure and accessible.#walrus
