The hard drive of Web3 is finally not a scam, Walrus directly rubs Filecoin and Arweave on the ground!

Ah, storing large files is really annoying now. Want to throw AI models, short videos, NFT materials on the chain? Ethereum directly scares you with gas fees, and Solana is also ridiculously expensive. Throw it on centralized cloud? Afraid that one day the platform will go crazy and delete your account. Filecoin and Arweave sounded pretty good before, but using them turned out to be more ridiculous than the last.

What about Filecoin? A ton of miners, the price is okay, but if you want to retrieve data anytime? You’ll be waiting forever, hot stuff sitting there like it's in a freezer. Arweave is even worse, asking for several thousand dollars at once (around $9000 now) claiming "permanent storage," but once you write it, it locks you out, want to change? No chance. Who can afford this upfront cost?

Walrus simply doesn’t play games with you.

It came up with a smart solution: cutting data into small pieces, throwing them to hundreds of nodes, and even if two-thirds of the nodes go down, it can be pieced back together in seconds. The cost of storing things is ridiculously low, now during the subsidy period, you can get 1TB for just dozens to hundreds of dollars ($50 starting), and later it will stabilize and be several times cheaper than others. The key is the speed is fast like cheating, uploading and downloading is almost like using Baidu Cloud, completed in milliseconds.

What’s even better is that this data interacts directly with smart contracts on the Sui chain. If you want NFTs to automatically change skins, AI to read and write its own memories anytime, or website content to update dynamically, you can control it all with code. Previous data was dead, now it’s alive and moving.

$WAL is the accelerator for this system.

You stake it to help the network stand guard, and you can share storage fees; use it to pay for storage; in the future, how the network adjusts parameters will be up to you. When AI and games really explode, massive amounts of data need a cheap, fast, and secure home, Walrus has basically locked down this position.

In short: storing things before was like paying an IQ tax, now using Walrus is the way normal people play.

Gold has gone crazy! It has surged 64% in a year, setting the most insane record in 46 years! 🔥
【小😘奶😊狗社区金先生正在直播中🍀🍀👻👻】 This is not market volatility; global capital is using real money to vote! When cracks appear in the traditional financial system, funds are wildly flowing into 'hard assets' with no sovereign risk.

💥 Explosive Points Breakdown:
1️⃣ The demand structure has completely overturned: the dominant force has shifted from ordinary investors to national-level strategic reserves.
2️⃣ The proportion of U.S. dollar reserves has fallen below 60%: the old order is loosening, and a new pattern is quietly brewing.
3️⃣ Policy tools are facing tests: traditional regulatory measures are gradually losing effectiveness in an environment of high debt.

Behind the historic volatility lies a profound structural change. When traditional value storage methods face a trust test, crypto assets, as emerging 'digital hard assets,' are being re-examined in their narrative logic.

In this silent value transfer, what impact do you think it will have on the crypto field? Feel free to share your observations in the comments! 👇

🚨 SHOCKING: Putin’s Gold Sell-Off — Russia Loses 3/4 of Its National Wealth Fund Reserves! 🇷🇺💰
$ACU $ENSO $KAIA

Russian media is finally telling citizens some harsh truths: over the past 3 years, Putin has sold off nearly 71% of Russia’s gold in the National Wealth Fund. In May 2022, the fund held 554.9 tons of gold, but as of January 1, 2026, that number dropped to just 160.2 tons—kept in anonymous accounts at the Central Bank. 😳

The National Wealth Fund’s total liquid assets, including yuan and gold, now stand at 4.1 trillion rubles. Analysts warn that if oil prices and the ruble stay the same, Russia could withdraw another 60% of the remaining fund this year—around 2.5 trillion rubles—leaving the country with dangerously thin reserves.

This isn’t just numbers on a page. It shows Russia’s financial safety net is shrinking fast, potentially weakening its ability to fund infrastructure, social programs, and even military operations. The biggest question now: how long can Moscow sustain its spending before the cash runs out? ⚠️💥
