Walrus is not "permanent", and that's a good thing
In crypto, the word "permanent" is often misused. Nothing is eternal: neither hardware, nor file formats, nor human networks. Walrus takes a more mature approach. Data persists as long as the network remains economically viable and maintained. This conditional permanence is more realistic than absolute promises. It acknowledges the laws of physics, economics, and time. In practice, this means Walrus offers a high probability of persistence over decades, rather than an impossible guarantee of eternity. This architectural honesty is a sign of maturity, not a weakness.@Walrus 🦭/acc
