When the logistics chain and social chain both use ERA, the value of this token should be calculated based on 'multi-chain GDP'.
Caldera is set to launch 3 blockbuster new chains next month: a 'logistics chain' connecting SF Express and DHL (using ERA to settle cross-border shipping fees), a 'social chain' that can send red envelopes on-chain (ERA as the tipping currency), and a 'computing power chain' running AI large models (ERA to buy computing power) — the launch gifts for each chain will be airdrops to users in ERA. This means that the use case of ERA is shifting from 'paying Gas' to 'universal points in a multi-chain world'.
Imagine the future: using ERA to pay for shipping fees on the logistics chain can earn a 10% discount; using ERA to tip streamers on the social chain can unlock exclusive emojis; using ERA to train models on the computing power chain can prioritize GPU calls — with each of these scenarios coming to fruition, the demand for ERA will increase. Just like the US dollar relies on global trade circulation, ERA is becoming increasingly important through 'inter-chain trade' in the multi-chain ecosystem.
Some people think ERA is too expensive at $1? But look at the speed of ecosystem expansion: the number of chains is expected to triple by 2024, and plans to connect with the bank chain (integrating credit card data) by 2025 — by then, ERA may become a contender for the 'on-chain US dollar'. Early players have already started 'hoarding coins + refreshing chains': each time a new chain is launched, they interact for rewards, both benefiting from airdrops and securing future ecological dividends — this operation is akin to buying 'original shares' in the multi-chain era!
