Blockchains excel at trust and execution, but they struggle with large amounts of data. Media files, game assets, and dynamic application states quickly become expensive and inefficient to store on-chain. Walrus is designed to handle this gap by acting as a decentralized data layer for Web3.
Instead of forcing blockchains to manage everything, Walrus offloads heavy data while keeping it verifiable and tamper-resistant. This approach improves throughput, reduces costs, and allows decentralized applications to scale naturally as user demand grows.
Walrus is not a replacement for blockchains — it is an essential complement. By letting chains focus on security and logic, Walrus enables faster, richer, and more practical Web3 applications built for real-world use.
