Seeing others easily claim airdrops and buy houses or cars, while your wallet is empty? No need to envy. The fairest place in the crypto world is right here — you can turn things around even without money.

$WAL has already completed its initial release, but this is just the beginning of the story. For the ecosystem to grow, project teams need to continuously attract users and encourage participation. Those second-season airdrops, ecosystem joint investments, staking rewards… are all opportunities for early followers. No need to chase price swings; just spend some time doing what the project most wants you to do — participate in the ecosystem.

**Step 1: Become an active user and leave your mark on the chain**

What project teams value most is genuine user interaction data. How to do it? Prepare a Sui wallet (Sui Wallet is recommended), load it with 3-5 $SUI for gas fees, and then open the Walrus official website or connected ecosystem apps like Flatland. Upload a few photos — your lunch, the scenery outside the window, funny memes — anything works. Once submitted, your Blob ID is generated on the chain, which is like your data ID card.

This ID is especially important. In the future, whenever there are activity-based reward programs, it will be your pass.

**Step 2: Stake and earn, let your tokens work**

Already holding $WAL? Don’t let it gather dust on exchanges. Withdraw it and find platforms that support staking, turning your tokens into productive assets. This way, you can earn rewards and deepen your involvement in the ecosystem. Project teams value these genuine holders — they represent real confidence.

From zero-cost setup to gradually deepening participation, the whole process is a game of exchanging time for opportunities.

SUI0.34%

It's the same old story, early participants are always the winners. Staking can indeed generate yields, but it depends on whether the project team is genuine or just trying to cash in. Zero cost? You still have to pay gas fees, don't fool yourself. I just want to ask how far Walrus can go this time, it feels a bit uncertain, ngl.

Here we go again with the hype, but this time it's a bit more interesting. Upload a photo to carve a mark? Fine, I don’t believe it’s that simple. --- Hey, staking can also generate interest? That little amount of WAL I have has been sitting in my wallet gathering dust. It’s about time to put it to work. --- Talking about turning the tide with more money sounds easy, but the key is having seed coins. --- Blob ID sounds pretty mysterious, but what’s the use? It all depends on how the project team uses it later. --- Chasing gains and avoiding losses to participate in the ecosystem sounds comfortable, but if it really takes time, I need to calculate the costs. --- Another zero-cost layout, but I feel like that’s not really the case.

Zero cost? Bro, wake up. Gas fees cost money, and you also need time to boost activity. Isn't this just a disguised way to make you work? But on the other hand, staking can indeed provide stable yields, which is better than reckless trading. There was definitely an early opportunity, it all depends on who can grind harder. It's Walrus again. When will this ecosystem finally take off... Relying solely on these airdrops to turn things around—dream on, everyone.

Is this the same old story, is it real or not? --- Zero cost? Bro, you still have to pay gas fees --- Blob ID sounds intimidating, but how can it actually be used --- Staking to earn passively? Wake up --- Early adopters... sounds good, but aren't they just cutting the new green onions --- It's a bit interesting, but it feels like they're just making big promises again --- Wait, isn't there a problem with this logic --- After hearing you, maybe there's still a chance? --- Having a slim wallet is indeed tough, but what’s even harder is having been exploited before --- Let's earn back the gas fees first

It's the same old story, feels like I've heard it a hundred times before --- Zero cost? Brother, who are you fooling? Gas fees cost money --- But the Blob ID logic is kind of interesting, is it real or fake? --- Staking rewards? Look at how many projects like this have ended up as worthless tokens --- Sounds nice, but actually we still have to help the project boost interaction data --- Opportunities for early participants... and traps for latecomers, what do you think? --- Wait, can the Walrus ecosystem really succeed? Has anyone experienced it?

Another story of a "zero-cost turnaround"—tired of hearing it, but this wave of $WAL is indeed a bit interesting. But uploading a few photos to get a Blob ID—doesn't that logic seem a bit too simple? Can staking really make money, or is it just another game to cut the leeks? Early participants always eat the meat, latercomers drink the soup—that's the truth of the crypto world. No matter how you put it nicely, this fact can't be changed.

It's the same old story again, can lack of funds turn things around? Just hanging around here. Real interaction data is actually refreshing, but I'm just worried it's another scheme to cut the leeks. Staking and earning sounds good, but the key is to have coins, haha.

It's the same story again: early participants are always the winners, while latercomers are still figuring out how not to lose money. Staking requires both gas fees and tokens. How is this calculation made? Is it really cost-effective? Just upload a photo to earn tokens? If your brain could really eat, you wouldn't need to be in the crypto space.

You're trying to fool us into getting free airdrops again, but this time it seems different—you have to invest money first. Zero cost? That's a joke, does gas fee not cost anything? Upload a photo to make money? I feel like it's the same old trick again. I've already installed the Sui wallet, but my wallet is still empty haha. Looks like WAL wants to squeeze users dry before giving some rewards? I see through it now. Staking requires principal, how does that relate to the phrase "turning around when short on money"? The logic is a bit confusing. Is this what they call trading time for opportunity? I feel like it's just time to cut the chives. But I really should try, what if I succeed? Anyway, I won't lose much.

Another set of "zero-cost turnaround" rhetoric, why does it feel like every project talks about this? Having SUI staked already, just worried it might be the next one to get cut. Wait, is Walrus really legit? Uploading photos can still earn future rewards? I'm a bit tempted but also a bit hesitant. But anyway, trying it out doesn't really have any risk, just for record-keeping. Uploaded three images, and getting the Blob ID feels pretty good. Hope it doesn't flop. This logic feels similar to Lens from two years ago. Let's see how it turns out.
