In the Web2 era, users passively became data consumers, while true control remained in the hands of platforms. With the development of decentralized storage protocols, the situation is beginning to change. Through distributed ledger technology, users can directly manage their digital assets—whether it’s code, NFT artworks, or personal data—permanently stored on the chain without intermediary control.

The WAL token plays a dual role in this system: it is both a payment tool for network interactions and a symbol of users’ full ownership of their data assets. As more applications are built on such decentralized storage solutions, we will see a new landscape emerge—data is no longer scattered across various centralized platforms but forms a transparent, tamper-proof information repository.

This paradigm shift has profound significance. It not only redefines the ownership of data’s value but also propels the Web3 ecosystem from the conceptual stage to practical application. Users finally have the opportunity to evolve from passive data providers to true owners of their digital assets.
