Web3 data infrastructure layer has long been constrained by an awkward status quo—most projects remain at the "static storage" initial stage, unable to meet the demands of emerging scenarios like AI agents and RWA on-chain for dynamic data.

Walrus aims to change this situation. Led by Mysten Labs, this project uses RedStuff two-dimensional coding technology as its technical foundation, leveraging the high-performance features of the Sui ecosystem to build a data layer protocol that combines efficiency, verifiability, and programmability. It sounds complex, but the core logic is simple: break through the efficiency ceiling of decentralized storage, empower it with AI and RWA scenarios, and redefine the value of the data layer within the entire ecosystem.

Walrus's ambitions go far beyond just being a storage tool. It aims to create the next generation of programmable data infrastructure for Web3—through technological breakthroughs to lower barriers, bind the ecosystem with economic models, and activate value through scenario implementation. With a three-pronged approach, it ultimately seeks to become the core hub connecting storage, computation, and real-world assets.

From a technical perspective, RedStuff encoding combined with PoA consensus mechanism rebuilds the efficiency and security foundation of the data layer. This combination not only handles more complex data requirements but also ensures system verifiability. In other words, Walrus aims to use technological innovation to open the doors to new scenarios like AI and RWA, rather than remaining trapped in traditional storage paradigms.
