What is Caldera (ERA)?
Caldera positions itself as the 'internet of rollups', offering a Rollup-as-a-Service platform that allows any project to launch its own second-layer blockchain in minutes. The system supports different virtual machines, such as EVM and SolanaVM, and provides the freedom to choose the data availability layer, such as Ethereum, Celestia, or NEAR.
This level of customization allows developers to optimize their projects in terms of speed, cost, and security, all without the need to manage servers, configure bridges, or go through complex audits.
The great differentiator of Caldera lies in native interoperability, called Metalayer, which automatically connects all Caldera networks and allows asset transfers between them and other blockchains. Additionally, the platform offers an AWS-style API to manage updates and scalability without having to stop services.
