Walrus Protocol has recently attracted attention in the Sui ecosystem. As a storage solution, it breaks through the cost constraints of traditional storage using RedStuff 2D erasure coding technology.
This technology is quite interesting—traditional storage requires 25x redundant backups to ensure data security, while Walrus only needs 4 to 5x to achieve the same level of security, directly cutting costs by 80%. Beyond that, data recovery is much faster, with complete recovery possible from a single slice, and bandwidth usage decreases accordingly. For applications sensitive to storage costs, this optimization is quite compelling.
From a token economics perspective, WAL's distribution model is also attractive. The project allocated 60% of tokens to the community, with a low barrier to entry—staking just 5 WAL allows participation in airdrops. More conveniently, users can directly delegate to node operators without maintaining infrastructure themselves and earn a share of storage revenues. This significantly lowers the threshold for ordinary participants.
Currently, Walrus is promoting ecosystem participation through various incentive activities, and the revenue opportunities available to early participants are worth paying attention to. If you're interested in storage solutions in the Sui ecosystem, now is a good time to learn more.
