CoinVoice recently learned that the decentralized storage network Walrus Protocol launched its public testnet. Walrus' public testnet and its testnet token WAL are served by Sui as a coordination layer. Sui provides Walrus with a dedicated management architecture to store its global state and metadata, providing fast consensus, composability, and the opportunity to integrate storage into smart contracts on Sui.
The Walrus protocol can store and transfer large data files from any web2 or web3-based source, including rich media content, audio files, videos, images, PDFs, etc. These large files are called blobs and are stored quickly and efficiently by Walrus, which is elastic, scalable, programmable and secure.
