Your NFT Might Disappear And You Don't Even Know It
True story: Someone paid $10k for an NFT. Six months later, the image was gone.
Why? Because the jpeg was stored on a centralized server. Company shut down. Image gone forever. They owned... a broken link.
This is the dirty secret of Web3: Most "decentralized" projects store their data on AWS, Google Cloud, or some other centralized service.
The blockchain part? Decentralized. The actual data? Sitting on Jeff Bezos's servers.
@Walrus 🦭/acc is fixing this by building truly decentralized storage infrastructure. Your data gets:
- Split into encrypted pieces
- Distributed across thousands of nodes
- Made permanent (no "oops we shut down" moments)
It's not as sexy as 100x moonshots, but it's essential infrastructure for Web3 to actually work.
Now I ask; Have you ever lost data because a service shut down? Or had an NFT image disappear?
