One of the biggest myths in crypto is that everything must be public. While transparency is great for verifyng the total supply of Bitcoin, it is terrible for personal data. You do not want your medical records, private messages, or business contracts visible to everyone on the block explorer.
For a long time, this prevented serious businesses from using decentralized storage. They couldn't risk the leak.
@Walrus 🦭/acc solves this with "Secured by Seal."
Think of Walrus as a massive public library. "Seal" is a private safety deposit box inside that library. You can store your data on the decentralized network, taking advantage of the low cost and high reliability. But, you encrypt it using Seal technology.
Only the person holding the correct cryptographic key can unlock and view that content. This is a game-changer. It means a hospital could theoretically store patient backups on the blockchain. A law firm could store client contracts.
This feature unlocks the Enterprise Market. It allows big institutions to finally step into Web3 without breaking compliance laws or doxxing their clients. The $WAL token powers this secure environment. It proves that you can have the benefits of decentralization—no single point of failure—without sacrificing the privacy we expect in the real world. #Walrus $WAL
