Blockchains are excellent at moving value and executing logic, but they struggle with one thing that AI and data-driven applications depend on: large-scale, reliable data. As more of the digital economy shifts toward AI, chains that cannot handle datasets, model artifacts, and long-lived records become limited in what they can support.
This is where Walrus becomes strategic for Sui.
By integrating a dedicated data layer, Sui gains the ability to support applications that need more than transactions. AI models, data markets, and decentralized organizations all require access to information that must remain available and verifiable over time. Walrus provides that foundation without forcing Sui to store massive files directly on-chain.
The result is a more complete stack. Sui handles execution and ownership. Walrus handles memory and availability. Together, they allow developers to build systems that combine fast on-chain logic with reliable off-chain data, which is exactly what the next generation of AI-powered Web3 applications requires.
