The storage solution within the Sui ecosystem is gradually improving, and Walrus Protocol, as a participant, has demonstrated some interesting technical features.

Unlike most traditional storage projects that rely heavily on hardware, Walrus's approach is more focused on addressing the actual needs of developers and users. It leverages the Move language features of the Sui public chain to provide pre-made storage smart contract templates, meaning developers can integrate distributed storage functions with just a few lines of code, significantly reducing development time. For Web3 applications, rapid iteration itself is a competitive advantage.

On the technical side, there are two noteworthy designs. One is "Redundant Dynamic Adjustment"—the system automatically adjusts storage redundancy based on the importance of data, theoretically reducing storage costs for small and medium users by over 50%. The other is the combination of "On-chain Proof + Privacy Encryption," which ensures data immutability while protecting sensitive information. This is attractive for high-compliance scenarios such as RWA and medical data.

WAL, as the ecosystem's payment, staking, and governance token, serves multiple functions. Its usage spans the entire storage ecosystem—users need it to pay for storage, participate in governance, and holders can earn rewards through staking. This multi-dimensional token consumption design can theoretically create a positive economic cycle. Additionally, the deflationary mechanism (each consumption further reduces circulating supply) provides potential value support for long-term holders.

Of course, the development prospects of the Sui ecosystem itself, market demand in the storage sector, and the project's operational capabilities are all key factors in assessing the long-term value of such projects. Continuous attention to its progress is warranted.
