Recently, I have been researching an interesting project in the Sui ecosystem—Walrus Protocol, which is positioned as the core storage layer for the next generation Web3 data infrastructure.

What is the reality? Currently, many on-chain applications are bottlenecked by data storage—either prohibitively expensive or security concerns, caught in a dilemma. Walrus's approach is quite straightforward: by using an efficient storage architecture to ensure high throughput for large-scale data writes, while making each piece of data verifiable and tamper-proof. This is still attractive for applications that need to handle massive amounts of on-chain data.

From a tokenomics perspective, the design logic of $WAL is a combination of network incentives and ecosystem incentives, which in theory can support long-term value accumulation. The team has also been steadily advancing in technological iterations and ecosystem collaborations, with a pragmatic functional roadmap for 2026.

Overall, if you are optimistic about the prospects of the Sui ecosystem, Walrus's position as a foundational storage infrastructure is worth paying attention to. The timing for entry is also quite good now.
