WALRUS PROTOCOL IS BLEEDING PARTICIPANTS $WAL

The steady cost of staying present is crushing operators. Small decisions. Louder disks. Bandwidth charts never flat. Walrus repair traffic spikes when no one touches the box. The network is healthy. The node is working. Effort doesn't taper. It's not ideological. It's practical. Walrus isn't a once-and-done system. It's the same box, same link, same repair work showing up again. Hardware ages. Links saturate. Weekends disappear babysitting. Nothing breaks. That's the trap. Operators optimize. Downgrade expectations quietly. Cheaper storage. Tighter caps. Tolerance for missed windows. Delegation looks attractive. Stepping back to breathe. From the outside, decentralized. From the inside, thinning. Walrus makes this visible. Availability and repair don't pause. They demand time, bandwidth, attention. Attention is rationed. Running a node feels like a job. The question is "Is this worth upgrading again?" Not "is it secure." Not "is it correct." Worth it. Decentralization changes shape. Fewer people carry more load. Reliability concentrates. Everyone else reduces exposure. Walrus Protocol doesn't hide it. You notice it later. Response times. Repair pacing. The network becomes forgiving. Decentralized systems are held together by people deciding to stay reliable. You defer the upgrade. You cap bandwidth. You tell yourself "next epoch."
