Walrus Protocol is architecting a decentralized storage layer built for AI workloads. Unlike traditional storage solutions, it's engineered from the ground up to handle unstructured data—the kind that powers modern AI applications. The protocol guarantees verifiable data availability and Byzantine fault tolerance, making it genuinely censorship-resistant.

Built on Sui, the ecosystem gets a massive performance boost. With $WAL powering operations, the protocol unlocks several compelling use cases: open data marketplaces where users truly own their information, secure DeFi infrastructure that doesn't compromise on data integrity, and media platforms operating at global scale without intermediaries. It's a solid attempt at solving storage fragmentation in Web3.
