WAL is a purpose-built utility token that anchors Walrus’s storage economy: it is the payment unit for storage, the stake that secures and governs the network, and the instrument for incentives/subsidies and deflationary mechanics (penalty burns and slashing). The model emphasizes long-term stake alignment, large community allocation, and subsidies to bootstrap competitive node economics.
