As the blockchain ecosystem evolves, data availability remains one of the biggest bottlenecks for mass adoption, especially for applications needing large, persistent data storage. @walrusprotocol is addressing this challenge by building a decentralized blob storage layer that enables scalable and efficient data access without sacrificing decentralization. With its native token $WAL, this protocol incentivizes storage providers and supports a growing ecosystem of applications—especially in NFTs, gaming, and off-chain data use cases that require high throughput and redundancy.
