The choices of giants often hide the true state of the market. Recently, you might notice an interesting phenomenon — Google, Humanity Protocol, and the esports giant Team Liquid are pointing to the same protocol, and this is definitely not a coincidence.

What exactly has the Walrus protocol done to warrant collective investment from these players?

Breaking it down, it has laid out plans in three directions. The first is the AI payment track, where Google's Agentic Payments scheme directly chose the Sui ecosystem's technical route. The second is on-chain identity, which has already completed the migration of over 10 million credential data. The third is esports content, where Team Liquid's match data and event archives are stored and accessed here.

On the surface, these are three different business lines, but essentially, it has become the most critical data infrastructure on Sui. Identity data, financial transactions, gaming assets — everything can be securely and efficiently stored here, ready to be retrieved by the application layer whenever needed.

Once this position is stabilized, how terrifying could the network effects be? We might see the answer by 2026.

Google, Humanity, and Team Liquid have all placed bets, the signals are indeed quite strong. Sui has seized the core infrastructure position this time, making it hard to shake. Wait, can Walrus really handle so many data layers? Identity, transactions, gaming assets all running together—security has to be solid enough. Haha, see you in 2026 for the real show. Going all in now might be a bit early... The giants have all entered, retail investors are still on the sidelines. I'm wondering if Sui really has something or if it's just a good story. --- Data infrastructure is indeed promising, but whether it can truly develop into network effects depends on how the application layer is used. --- No, is Google serious about this route? Seems like there's not much movement. --- Walrus looks like it's building a "cloud storage empire" on the chain. If it can run stably, there's a lot of imagination for what comes next. --- The 10 million credential data is quite impressive. If it can be securely migrated, the identity layer will be solid. --- All three tracks are covered. If they all really succeed, the Sui ecosystem might truly take off. But it's still too early to say.

Google and Team Liquid are both using it? Walrus might be about to take off --- The Sui ecosystem's strategic setup is truly brilliant, integrating identity, payments, and gaming data... Could 2026 be the breakout period? --- Wait, where did the data for the 10 million credential migration come from? Is it really that exaggerated? --- Big players clustering in the same track, this time isn't just another hype, right? --- I'm optimistic about Walrus, but whether the network effect will explode depends on if Sui can withstand the pressure. --- AI payments + on-chain identity + e-sports data, combining these three is indeed unprecedented... There's something there. --- Team Liquid is here? Then this protocol definitely isn't playing around. --- The location of infrastructure is really critical; once the traffic entry point gets blocked... expectations are set for 2026. --- Is it true or not, did Google directly move to Sui? Feels like I haven't seen an official announcement. --- Data infrastructure has always been overlooked; this time, someone is finally taking it seriously.

Google is also pushing Walrus, it would be crazy not to follow this wave.

Google, Team Liquid, and other big players are all deploying on Walrus, which indeed seems less like a coincidence. But it looks like they're just repeating the old pattern of betting on data infrastructure. The ambitions of the Sui ecosystem are truly significant.

Google and Liquid are both betting on a protocol? Tracking this on-chain isn't simple... Is Walrus the chosen one to build the infrastructure for Sui?

Isn't it? Can Google and Team Liquid together really explain the issue? This situation does seem to have some substance.

Google and Team Liquid are both joining the fun, it seems Walrus isn't just a bystander AI payments + identity + eSports data, really has some substance, the data infrastructure positioning is so aggressive In 2026, network effects will explode, and by then the entire Sui ecosystem will have to rely on it for sustenance?

Google is here. Is Sui really about to take off this time?

Google has already bet on it, so this matter is probably not that simple. --- Is the Sui ecosystem now so competitive that even data infrastructure can become a hot commodity? --- A 10 million token migration sounds impressive, but how many people actually know how to use it? --- Wait, Team Liquid's data is also here? Now that's a killer app. --- Talking about network effects sounds nice, but someone has to actually use it, or it's just an empty shell. --- AI payments, identity, eSports—this combination really has some potential. --- Google choosing Sui over Ethereum—what does that indicate? --- We won't see the answer until 2026? Then the opportunity to buy the dip is now. --- Endorsements from giants are just that—endorsements. In the end, it still depends on whether the ecosystem can truly come alive. --- This logic is a bit like the narrative of public chains back in the day—sounds impressive, but what was the result?
