Walrus Mainnet has launched.
A new decentralized storage network built for blockchains:
- Cost-efficient like cloud storage
- Fully decentralized, no central servers
- Data survives even if two-thirds of nodes fail
This creates a new trust layer for data across NFTs, AI, games, and Layer 2 rollups.
Why does this matter?
- Most NFTs today only store metadata on-chain. If the original file disappears, so does the NFT.
- AI datasets and model weights need transparency and provenance guarantees.
- L2s depend on secure data availability. Without it, the whole system collapses.
Walrus solves these challenges by combining decentralization, low cost, and high availability in one network.
If it succeeds, it could become:
- An alternative to AWS or Google Cloud
- A security and reliability backbone for NFTs, AI, and L2s
- The foundation for a truly decentralized Web3 internet
Do you believe networks like Walrus can replace centralized cloud and become the standard for Web3 data?
