1. Prepare a Sui Wallet: You'll need a wallet like Sui Wallet or Ethos Wallet that supports Sui and $WAL tokens to pay fees and manage storage.
2. Upload Data: Use Walrus' developer SDK, CLI tools, or third-party applications integrated with the protocol. Data is split into encoded slivers and distributed across nodes.
3. Manage & Retrieve: Track your stored data via metadata on the Sui blockchain, and retrieve it using the protocol's API or compatible aggregators. You can also tokenize storage space or rent it out via smart contracts.
