Why Decentralized Storage Is Critical for Web3

Blockchains are great at recording transactions, but they are not designed to store large amounts of data. Most Web3 applications still rely on centralized servers for images, videos, and datasets, which quietly reintroduces trust and censorship risks. This is why decentralized storage has become a critical layer for Web3.

@Walrus 🦭/acc addresses this gap by offering a decentralized data availability and storage network built for real-world use. By distributing data across independent operators, Walrus removes single points of failure and ensures applications remain functional even if individual nodes go offline.

Decentralized storage also improves trust. Data stored on Walrus can be verified cryptographically, allowing users and applications to confirm authenticity without relying on a central provider. For NFTs, games, AI systems, and decentralized websites, this level of assurance is essential.

Powered by $WAL and integrated with the Sui ecosystem, Walrus strengthens Web3’s infrastructure by making data as decentralized and reliable as the blockchains that depend on it.
