Among the many infrastructures in the Sui ecosystem, Walrus Protocol has attracted considerable attention with its unique storage solution. As a decentralized storage service native to the Sui chain, it primarily regulates the market supply and pricing of storage resources through the $WAL token.

What is the core competitive advantage of this mechanism? First, the permanence of storage and real-time retrieval capabilities; second, significantly lower costs compared to traditional cloud storage services. For application scenarios that require high availability and censorship resistance—whether it’s NFT metadata storage, DeFi protocol data snapshots, or content hosting for decentralized social platforms—Walrus can provide enterprise-grade reliability.

It is especially noteworthy that it is deeply integrated with Sui’s Move smart contract ecosystem, which means developers can directly invoke these storage services within on-chain applications. As the Sui ecosystem continues to develop, the market performance of $WAL as a value carrier for storage resources is indeed worth watching.
