How Caldera Works: Your Own Scalable Chain

The core concept of Caldera is to provide infrastructure for launching custom rollups. When you use Caldera, you are essentially renting or creating your own blockchain instance that operates in parallel with the main network (e.g., Ethereum). This rollup processes transactions off the main chain, and then periodically "rolls up" these transactions into a single compact proof that is recorded on the underlying blockchain. Caldera takes care of all the complex aspects of deploying, maintaining, and monitoring this rollup, including working with sequencers, indexers, and bridges, allowing developers to focus solely on their application. #Caldera #ERA $ERA
