With the continuous advancement of blockchain technology, a brand new "One-Click Chaining" era is quietly approaching. In this wave of transformation, Caldera (ERA), with its innovative modular Rollup technology, is redefining the infrastructure development of Web3.
Caldera's core advantage lies in its highly customizable Rollup services. Users can deploy a dedicated chain in just 3 minutes, which is not only compatible with EVM and SVM but also supports mainstream frameworks like Arbitrum Orbit. What is even more remarkable is its outstanding performance; actual test data shows that its Gas fee is only $0.0001, and the final transaction confirmation time takes only 0.2 seconds, making it nearly half as fast as some competing products.
Currently, the Caldera ecosystem is in a phase of explosive growth. More than 50 top chains, including Hyperliquid and ApeChain, have chosen to host on the Caldera platform, with an astonishing total locked value (TVL) growth rate of 300% per month. This trend indicates that an increasing number of developers are breaking free from the limitations of traditional public chains and are using Caldera to build their own sovereign chains, thereby maximizing the capture of on-chain value.
From an economic model perspective, the ERA token serves not only as a Gas token but also represents equity in the entire Rollup economic system. Caldera's revenue sources are diversified, including chain deployment fees (starting at $50,000 per chain), transaction fees ($0.001 per transaction), and cross-chain business sharing (averaging $1.2 million per month). It is worth noting that Caldera adopts a deflationary model, with 70% of the revenue allocated for the repurchase and destruction of tokens, which means that as the number of chains increases, the ERA token will become increasingly scarce.
In the capital market, Caldera is also highly favored. With the leading investments from a16z and Sequoia Capital, Caldera's valuation has reached $3.2 billion, making it a standout in the modular track. With the flourishing development of the Celestia ecosystem, Caldera has become the preferred platform for many projects when issuing their own chains.
Overall, Caldera is redefining the infrastructure development of Web3 with its innovative technology and economic model. It not only provides developers with more autonomy and flexibility but also points to a possible direction for the future development of the entire Blockchain ecosystem.
