Walrus is built for real-world network churn, not ideal conditions. Its 4.5× storage overhead reflects a deliberate design choice: node departures and committee rotations are treated as the norm, ensuring recovery doesn’t trigger bandwidth-heavy full data repairs.
By anchoring economic accountability to on-chain contracts, Walrus makes availability and disputes verifiable rather than subjective. The WAL token incentivizes operators to maintain uptime across epochs, while discouraging rapid stake shifts that would otherwise force costly data migration.
