When it comes to distributed storage, Walrus has recently attracted a lot of developers' attention. Its technical architecture connects several fields—DeFi, Web3 applications, and even traditional industries—making it a good bridging tool.

On the developer side, the Walrus Sites feature is particularly interesting. Simply put, you can deploy fully decentralized websites directly on the Sui network without relying on any centralized servers. What does this mean? The storage costs for developing dApps are significantly reduced. Specific scenarios include: storing NFT media files on-chain, efficiently distributing resources for on-chain games, and hosting data for decentralized social platforms—these issues now have new solutions.

Considering cost and flexibility, this does help promote the infrastructure development of the entire Web3 ecosystem.

This Walrus does have some substance; lowering storage costs is the real key. But to be honest, can decentralized websites really run stably? How's the internet speed? The Sui ecosystem is about to ramp up again; lower developer costs will bring everyone in. NFT on-chain storage indeed has many pain points; I am optimistic about this direction. The topic is a bit broad; let's wait and see real data. Reducing storage costs is no small matter; in DeFi, cost is the most important, I agree. Web3 infrastructure should definitely invest heavily in this. I'm just worried it might be another PPT concept; in practice, it still feels expensive. Sui's move is good; it adds another attractive point. It seems developers will be very receptive; who doesn't love reducing costs?

Really? Walrus can reduce storage costs? Then NFT project teams would be laughing their heads off.

Really? Has the storage cost directly decreased? Why do I feel like this is just another pie in the sky?

Does this thing called Walrus really reduce costs? It depends on whether it can truly scale up and run on a large scale in the future.

Really? The storage costs are directly cut down? If that's true, I have to give it a try.

It seems that Walrus is indeed addressing real-world problems, and the reduction in storage costs is quite interesting.

Walrus really has some potential; only when storage costs come down can developers truly start making things happen.

ngl, walrus sites sound neat on paper but let's see if the liquidity actually holds up when real stress-testing hits... infrastructure plays always look shiny til the first protocol vulnerability drops

Can walrus really reduce costs? I've heard it many times, but ultimately it depends on who is actually using it within the ecosystem.
