Walrus: The Blockchain Built for Data 🦭
Walrus is a next-generation decentralized storage protocol built on the Sui blockchain, designed to handle large-scale, unstructured data efficiently. Unlike traditional blockchains, Walrus separates data availability from execution, making storage cheaper, faster, and more scalable. It uses erasure coding instead of full replication, reducing storage costs while maintaining high reliability. Walrus is ideal for NFT media, AI datasets, gaming assets, and Web3 content. With Sui’s high throughput and low latency, Walrus enables developers to store and retrieve data seamlessly bringing blockchain one step closer to real-world, data-heavy applications.
