In the decentralized storage wars, utility is king. The $WAL token isn't just a speculative asset; it is the lifeblood of the @walrusprotocol ecosystem.
Storage Payment: Users spend Wal purchase storage "blobs" for a fixed duration.
Network Security: Node operators must stake Wal to prove their commitment. This ensures that the people holding your data have "skin in the game."
Governance: As a decentralized protocol, holders of $WAL can vote on critical parameters like storage pricing and network upgrades.
By aligning incentives through a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (dPoS) model, #walrus ensures that as the demand for decentralized data grows, the ecosystem remains robust and rewarding for its community.
