Teams like Team Liquid are shaking up the way they handle content. They're moving huge archives onto decentralized platforms, and Walrus is behind the scenes making it all work. Instead of letting files gather dust in silos, Walrus turns them into on-chain assets you can actually verify. The result? Teams everywhere can access what they need, no matter where they are.
Then there’s ZarkLab’s AI meta-tagging. It tags every bit of footage, so anyone can find exactly what they’re looking for in seconds. The whole archive becomes searchable, which makes things run smoother and ditches any single points of failure. Plus, this new setup opens the door to creative fan experiences—think exclusive content drops and new ways to make money—while staying flexible as needs change.
Walrus uses erasure coding to keep storage costs in check—just five times the size of the original file—while making sure everything stays available, even if something goes wrong. They’ve pulled in $140M from investors like a16z and Standard Crypto, and they’re building on Sui for serious scalability. It works for all sorts of data, from videos to big datasets.
This isn’t just about storing files. It’s about building a real, verifiable data economy for AI and media.
