As Web3 expands, the need for decentralized data storage capable of handling large files is becoming critical — and @walrusprotocol is stepping up with solutions that are both robust and governance-driven. The $WAL token plays multiple roles: users must pay WAL to store data, stake or delegate WAL to secure network operations, and vote on governance decisions that shape protocol upgrades and fee mechanisms. Walrus Sites allow developers to host fully decentralized static websites tied to on-chain identities, enhancing censorship resistance and interoperability with Sui’s smart contract ecosystem. From supporting NFT platforms with reliable media delivery to archiving blockchain histories and enabling AI datasets to live on-chain, #Walrus is building essential infrastructure for the next generation of decentralized applications — all while keeping storage costs competitive and the network community-oriented. �
