What Is Walrus and Why It Matters for Web3 Data
@Walrus 🦭/acc is a decentralized data storage and availability protocol developed within the Sui ecosystem by Mysten Labs. Unlike traditional decentralized storage systems that struggle with performance, Walrus is designed to store large “blobs” of unstructured data—such as AI datasets, media files, and logs—while maintaining high throughput and low latency. Walrus separates data storage from execution, enabling developers to build scalable Web3 and AI applications without relying on centralized cloud providers. Its architecture emphasizes cost efficiency, resilience, and programmability, making it a foundational layer for decentralized infrastructure.
