Infrastructure ultimately depends on what kind of applications it can enable. The emergence of Walrus breaks the curse of the "full on-chain" slogan, making it truly possible. This article will discuss three potential application directions that could be triggered after the launch of the Walrus mainnet, as well as their impact on the entire Web3 sector.



**The First Change: The Era of Dynamic NFTs Has Arrived**

Honestly, the current NFT market is just a big bubble. Why? Because 99% of NFTs are actually just address pointers on the chain, with the actual images stored on Amazon servers—just a JPEG.

Walrus rewrites this story.

Creators can now directly upload high-quality assets like 4K videos, 3D models, and lossless music into Walrus. The data cannot be tampered with and is stored permanently. Even more impressive, combined with Sui Move's smart contract capabilities, these NFTs can become "living" entities. Imagine: a sword in a game (NFT), which gets used more by players, causes its corresponding texture map on Walrus to automatically become worn or damaged. This **"data moves with the state"** design will completely revolutionize the gameplay possibilities of NFTs.

**The Second Opportunity: Blockchain Games Finally Have a Chance**

Do you know how primitive the first-generation blockchain games were? For example, Axie Infinity, because it couldn't store complex assets on-chain, resulted in a terrible gaming experience. AAA blockchain games still rely on the "Web2 game with a wallet login" trick.

Walrus changes this limitation. Developers can now deploy high-fidelity game assets on-chain. This isn't about turning blockchain games into fully decentralized CDNs, but truly providing the technical foundation for GameFi to produce AAA-quality titles.

Wait, I didn't think of the logic that the sword will automatically become old. That would blow up the storage costs.

Wait, the concept of the dynamic NFT sword aging is really the true application of game equipment. Finally, someone has got the data layer right.

Wow, someone finally spoke the truth about NFTs. The era of JPEG pointers should come to an end. Wait, once dynamic NFTs become popular, those avatar-style NFTs gathering dust will be even less desirable. AAA quality blockchain games? Don't get your hopes up. Let's see if Walrus can really get off the ground first. Good infrastructure is the key. If this wave of Walrus can truly shake up the entire industry, early buyers will be laughing to the bank.

Dynamic NFTs sound great, but how many can actually be created? Right now, it's all just talk.

Wow Walrus, this move really pulled NFT back from the "Amazon pointer." Quickly check if there are good projects using it.

Walrus sounds impressive, but how many teams can actually develop decent applications?
