Recently, a series of actions by Walrus have attracted attention. From the practical implementation of privacy features to in-depth cooperation in the security ecosystem, every step demonstrates WAL's determination to lay out a long-term track.

The explosion of Seal functionality in early 2026 is highly anticipated. As a new benchmark for Web3 privacy storage, it allows developers to encrypt data and finely allocate access permissions while maintaining on-chain verifiability—precisely the capabilities many applications dream of.

Seeing the actual use cases makes it clear. Inflectiv uses Seal to lock AI datasets, protecting intellectual property while enabling compliant commercialization. The on-chain game Vendetta uses it to hide level rewards, greatly enhancing the player’s exploration experience. These cases break the old stereotype that "decentralization equals data disclosure." Long-standing challenging scenarios like DeFi privacy transactions and medical data on-chain now finally have reliable solutions.

Webacy’s collaboration is also noteworthy. It has migrated all on-chain risk analysis tools to Walrus, with DD.xyz’s scoring engine data fully transparent and verifiable on-chain, adding an extra layer of security for transactions.

The Quilt feature unlocks potential from another perspective. Decentralized storage platform Tusky leverages it to significantly reduce costs, maintaining smooth access even when handling massive files, with operational pressure noticeably eased. Gata further streamlines the process by having Quilt package all small files generated during AI training, eliminating manual management hassle. This design preserves ownership of individual files while greatly reducing storage costs, earning widespread praise from developers.

From a technical standpoint, the Walrus ecosystem is forming a complete privacy protection and storage optimization solution. Whether for application developers or infrastructure operators, they can find functional modules that meet their needs. The maturity of this ecosystem determines its broad application prospects in the Web3 world.
