E-learning platforms require reliable and secure content storage, and Walrus Protocol provides decentralized infrastructure for this purpose on the Sui Network. Developed by Mysten Labs and supported by the Walrus Foundation, the protocol can be used to manage educational materials such as videos, interactive modules, and digital textbooks.
Erasure coding distributes course content across multiple storage nodes, supporting availability for students worldwide. Proof-of-Availability allows platforms to verify content integrity, making unauthorized alterations detectable through cryptographic proofs.
Programmable storage features enable learning materials to be linked to Sui smart contracts for access control, including subscription-based or time-limited access models. Educators can publish dynamic content while maintaining transparent usage conditions.
Software development kits (SDKs) simplify uploads from learning management systems and content platforms. The $WAL token supports storage payments and incentives for network participants who maintain availability.
Foundation programs and community initiatives also support educational projects and e-learning development. By offering resilient and user-controlled content delivery, Walrus helps promote accessible and verifiable knowledge sharing in decentralized environments.
