About Walrus Foundation

Walrus Foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the promotion and growth of the Walrus protocol — a decentralized storage network that stores and delivers large data files (videos, images, PDFs, and other rich media) from any Web2 or Web3 source. Originally developed by Mysten Labs (the team behind the Sui blockchain), Walrus uses two-dimensional erasure coding and Sui as its coordination layer to deliver resilient, programmable, and verifiable data storage at scale.
