Undoubtedly, Sui is the winning Altcoin of the 2025 bullrun. Take a look at how quickly it bounced back from the weekend market crash. But, it’s Sui’s ecosystem that is flourishing the most. And in today’s video, we will be talking about a Sui gem that is very close to its token generation event — that sounds like an early crypto opportunity. Mysten Labs is the team behind Sui. And if they only built and maintained Sui, they would be doing a lot successfully. But the team is more than that.They are also the team behind a few of the most successful ecosystem projects. Sui is off and running…..but some of the team’s newer projects are just getting started. One of the most recent is decentralized storage solution, Walrus. It does things no other storage solution can…… Let’s learn more about Walrus. New Projects From Great BuildersIt’s a pretty simple thesis for some investors in crypto.
And we’ve seen this before. There are great teams at places like Uniswap, AAVE, Chainlink, and Solana. And the Mysten Labs team that’s built Sui is no exception. They are also the team behind Deepbook and Walrus. Deepbook had its mainnet launch back in October. It’s already in its V3 adding a lot of value and DeFi liquidity for Sui users.
Its launch was a resounding success of both the product and the token. As you know, sometimes the product sucks, but the token still runs or the product is amazing but the token falters. Not so here. Sui ecosystem users LOVE using Deepbook and the token has done more than 10x only since October. Betting on great teams is an easy way to get an edge in this market. And the same team behind Sui and Deepbook is the team behind Walrus. One thing we know is true is that the Sui Ecosystem has a lot of airdrop opportunities. Including possibly more airdrops for Walrus. This alone is a good reason to hold Sui. That doesn’t even account for its amazing performance of doubling in the last 3 months to become a Top 12 token. What Is Walrus?Walrus Protocol is a decentralized data protocol. For reasons, you will see in a second, many people believe it will unseat Filecoin as the leader in decentralized data storage. And Filecoin is already a $2 billion project. Cloud storage and spending such as with Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, or MSFT Azure has gotten crazy expensive. And the SaaS sector, which is one of the biggest in tech, is one of the biggest spenders. They spend up to 50% of their total cost of revenue on cloud services. Plus, the cloud is centralized, has single points of failure, and you have no idea what Amazon or Google is doing with the data they are storing for you. Walrus has a better way. First, on blobs. Blobs are large pieces of unstructured data. That can mean huge multimedia images, large backup files, or even data logs that software developers need to see where errors and bugs might be. Filecoin and others have a tough time storing blobs. Even NFT metadata, which is Filecoin’s expertise, is stored easier on Walrus. With decentralized storage, you truly own your data. It’s one of the big selling points of Web3 in the first place. And Walrus is more resilient than both centralized or other decentralized data providers. If any nodes go down, your data is still accessible to you. That’s not so true if AWS has an outage. That’s a big edge to Walrus.
The Walrus system is more efficient too. That’s thanks to Sui and the Move programming language. By storing the info as objects, blobs and other data are easier to manage and scalable. AI LLM Storage & Chain AgnosticStoring big files is one of Walrus’ huge advantages. A great use case for this is AI LLMs. That stands for Large Language Models like OpenAI’s o1 model. These models are big files, as you might expect. And Walrus can store them for a provider like OpenAI to create decentralized access to the models. This makes Walrus a part of decentralized AI infrastructure. And that’s something we need desperately. Otherwise, we risk giving all our data away for free again, like we did with social media platforms. We haven’t seen any other Web3 storage provider be able to provide this like Walrus can. Walrus is also chain agnostic. Any chain, any app.
These 2 factors alone put Walrus miles ahead of the competition. And we will admit we like this sector generally and Arweave in particular. We think it’s an excellent project. But it does not do these things that Walrus can do. One of Walrus’ recent partnerships is with Tusky who made this migration from Arweave to Walrus for these exact reasons.Tusky is looking to become the Dropbox of Web3. Their CEO Pascal Barry said Walrus is “a more cost-effective and versatile solution.” And that’s without sacrificing security or scalability. The $WAL TokenDuring testnet, you only got the testnet versions of the $WAL token to play around with. The Walrus mainnet and TGE are coming soon. Here’s what you can expect. Walrus will be using a Delegated Proof of Stake (dPOS) system to manage governance on the chain. You will be able to use the $WAL token for
Walrus nodes take advantage of sharding, which we know is a future goal of Ethereum. ETH wants it for better scalability, while Walrus already has it. The $WAL token is coming soon, so you should definitely watch out for it. The $DEEP token from the same team and similar launch trajectory has done great, too. It’s done a 4x in the last 3 months.
Although there are 2 great competitors for data storage in Web3 with Filecoin and Arweave, Walrus does things neither of them can do. It will be a leader in decentralized storage soon. And we expect it will be a leading Sui ecosystem project soon.
