Smart contracts are optimized for execution and verification, not for storing large data objects. Attempting to combine both often leads to high costs and complexity. Walrus enables developers to separate concerns cleanly.
In this model, contracts manage rules and ownership, while Walrus stores large application data offchain. Contracts reference this data without embedding it directly. This makes applications easier to maintain and extend as features grow.
Walrus supports cleaner architecture for developers building data-heavy applications.
