For users who are new to Web3, the airdrop opportunity for the Walrus project is definitely worth paying attention to. As the main project for decentralized storage on the Sui chain, it is supported by Mysten Labs, with a funding scale reaching $400 million, and the ecosystem TVL steadily maintained at around $2.5 billion. From a fundamental perspective, it remains quite solid.

If you want to participate, the process is actually not complicated. First, you need to install the official Sui wallet — this step is crucial, and you must install it from a legitimate source. Computer users can simply search for "Sui Wallet" in the Chrome Web Store and add it directly; mobile users should search for the same app in the App Store to download. After installation, a mnemonic phrase will be generated, which is the key to your account. You must write it down by hand and not take a screenshot or store it on your phone. This is very important; if the mnemonic phrase is leaked, all previous operations will be meaningless.

Next, you need to familiarize yourself with the process on the testnet. The official will provide free test tokens so you can understand all the steps before actually participating. The entire process is not difficult at all, and it’s a zero-cost experience — it can be done in about 3 to 5 minutes at most. The key is to not skip steps; every step must be taken seriously.

If you succeed in participating, you will be eligible for the WAL community incentive distribution. Although there are many different opinions online, this kind of ecosystem airdrop is essentially a feedback mechanism from the platform to early users. The most important thing is to ensure security and avoid falling for phishing sites. Stick to official channels and follow the steps carefully — that’s the safest approach.

According to on-chain data, Walrus's $2.5 billion TVL scale is indeed worth a look, but security measures really can't be overlooked. As for mnemonic phrases, they must be handwritten; screenshots are equivalent to self-sabotage. This is the first line of defense. You can understand the logic of the testnet in 3 to 5 minutes of free testing; there's no need to risk jumping in directly. Airdrops are essentially an ecosystem feedback mechanism, but beware of phishing sites. Official channels are the right way to go. Stable TVL doesn't mean the risk has disappeared; uncertainties in early-stage projects still exist, so be mentally prepared.

400 million in funding sounds impressive, but how much of the airdrop can actually be claimed? --- Sui wallet is complete. Using a pen to copy the mnemonic phrase is a bit troublesome, but it’s definitely much safer. This step must be done properly. --- I don’t believe in zero-cost airdrops. There’s no such thing as a free lunch; at most, there are no additional costs. --- 25 billion TVL sounds stable, but can decentralized storage really take off? It seems like there hasn’t been much movement. --- There are too many phishing websites. Over the past few years, probably countless people have been scammed. It’s better to be cautious to avoid losses. --- Mysten Labs’ backing does carry some weight, but not all projects can rely solely on their background to succeed. --- Getting it done in 5 minutes? That’s probably too optimistic. I’ve been tinkering much longer than that, testing step by step. --- There are plenty of tutorials like this in space, but the real way to avoid pitfalls is to be careful yourself. No one can be responsible for you. --- Early user feedback mechanisms? They sound good, but in reality, it’s just a different way of saying incentives.

Another airdrop in the Sui ecosystem. By the way, you really need to write down your seed phrase by hand. I was too lazy to write it before, and I almost had a problem because of it.

400 million USD funding is indeed attractive, but I'm worried it might just be another round of cutting the leeks. The mnemonic phrase explanation makes sense, but it still depends on how the project team distributes it in the end. Airdrops may not be worth much anyway. The Sui ecosystem is a bit hot right now, but there's no need to get too excited. Just take a free cut of the wool. Testing the testnet is okay, anyway there's not much risk. I'm just afraid that after launch, there will be all kinds of fee traps.

400 million USD in funding sounds good, but how much will actually be airdropped to us? Mnemonic phrases really require attention; I've seen too many people get scammed because of this. The Sui ecosystem is indeed making efforts, but now more and more people are participating, so it's hard to say if you'll catch the early bonus. I'm just a bit worried that Mysten Labs might pull some tricks, after all, this circle is full of schemes. Familiarizing yourself with the testnet is still necessary; don't find yourself panicking when it's time to actually operate. A TVL of 2.5 billion looks solid, but if a security issue arises someday, it will be troublesome, and everything will have to start from zero. Honestly, it's a gamble on whether the subsequent airdrops will be valuable; everyone participating now is betting on the future of this ecosystem.

400 million USD funding, backed by Mysten Labs. This Walrus airdrop doesn't feel like a typical pump-and-dump; worth getting on board. The mnemonic phrase must be handwritten. A friend of mine once took a screenshot and almost got hijacked—lesson learned the hard way. Testnet free claim takes only 5 minutes? I'll try it later. Anyway, zero cost, no need to hesitate. But to be fair, the biggest risk with airdrop incentives is the official platform later shrinking the rewards. Whether WAL is really valuable depends on the subsequent ecosystem. It's the same old phishing website trick—so tiring. Just stick to official channels, and you'll be fine.

Mnemonic phrases are really important. I've seen someone casually take a screenshot and get phished before. Actually, it's really necessary to try out the testnet first; don't jump straight into real money. Backed by 400 million USD sounds great, but airdrops are still about luck. Safety first, brother. Phishing sites are everywhere. Only trust official sources. Mysten Labs products are indeed quite good, but Walrus's current popularity seems average.

Alright, another project with 400 million USD. Let me see if I can get some free benefits. --- I think overthinking the handwritten mnemonic phrase is unnecessary. Isn't using a password manager better... --- 25 billion TVL sounds good, but how much airdrop I can actually get depends on luck. --- Zero-cost experience is true; anyway, it's a testnet for free, so why not give it a try. --- Just following the official tutorial step by step, but these kinds of tutorials have been everywhere for a long time... --- No problem with the Sui wallet step, but the numerous phishing links later on are a real concern. It's better to be cautious. --- The various explanations are really annoying; who can say exactly how many WALLETS can be divided? --- Early user feedback mechanism? Basically, it just depends on whether you entered early enough. --- Can be done in 3 to 5 minutes? I need ten times longer to watch all kinds of tutorials...

400 million in funding sounds impressive, but can Walrus really be implemented, or is it just another air project story? Handwriting mnemonic phrases really requires attention; I've seen too many people ruin themselves out of laziness. Trying out the testnet for free is actually quite enjoyable; after all, it's free, so you can see if you can get some benefits. Honestly, the biggest fear with airdrops is being fooled by phishing sites; you must stick to official channels. The Sui ecosystem has managed to maintain its TVL during the Solana downturn, which really shows some potential.
