#walrus
Walrus isn't just another storage locker; it's a programmable storage layer. Because it is deeply integrated with Sui, developers can use Move-based smart contracts to interact with stored data in real-time.
Cost Efficiency: Compared to traditional blockchain storage, Walrus is significantly cheaper often up to 100x more efficient than older decentralized alternatives.
Scalability for AI: With the explosion of Decentralized AI (DeAI), Walrus provides the perfect home for massive training datasets that require high-speed retrieval.
True NFT Ownership: Most NFTs today store their images on centralized servers. With Walrus, the actual media can live on-chain (decentralized), making the NFT truly "eternal."
