Recently, I have been paying close attention to a promising direction—decentralized storage protocols like Walrus. In simple terms, it’s about truly giving your data back to you, rather than allowing a company or platform to control it.

How does it work specifically? Users’ documents, social content, and creative materials can all be stored on the blockchain. The system will fragment and encrypt these data, then disperse them across a global network of nodes. The key point is—no single entity can freeze or delete your complete data, which is highly significant for the security and protection of on-chain assets.

From an investment perspective, similar infrastructure projects are often underestimated. Looking back at the ZTC TGE wave, the initial participants saw huge differences in returns. The performance of HOLO in September also demonstrated that there are real opportunities in this privacy + storage track. Of course, each project is different, so it’s important to do thorough research before making a move.
