Do you know who they are?
An interesting phenomenon is occurring: asset management giant BlackRock and NFT leader Yuga Labs have both chosen Caldera as their blockchain infrastructure. These seemingly unrelated companies recognize the value of the same set of technologies.
Actual needs of institutions: compliance and efficiency
1. Flexible compliance architecture
Caldera supports customizable compliance modules, allowing institutions to replicate the permission structure of traditional finance on-chain. For example, BlackRock can set investor thresholds when issuing tokenized bonds, meeting regulatory requirements while retaining the transparency advantages of blockchain.
2. Lowering technical barriers
Traditional finance teams can manage on-chain assets without deep smart contract development knowledge. Through standardized APIs and enterprise-grade tools, Caldera significantly shortens the onboarding learning curve for institutions. Cases show that after adopting this solution, asset reconciliation efficiency improves by over 90%.
3. Relying on Ethereum's security
All transaction data is ultimately confirmed by the Ethereum mainnet, providing security assurances that are difficult for new public chains to achieve. This design eliminates reliance on a single entity and meets the stringent requirements of financial institutions for certainty.
Value discovery for Web3 projects
For crypto-native projects like Yuga Labs, Caldera provides:
Customizability of exclusive chains: chain parameters can be optimized for the BAYC community's needs
Seamless cross-chain interoperability: NFT assets can directly enter mainstream DeFi protocols
On-chain governance realization: adjusting network rules through token-weighted voting
Institutions stake ERA as a credit endorsement for long-term participation
Project parties consume ERA to pay for network service fees
With ecological expansion, the utility of tokens shows natural growth
The case of Caldera shows that blockchain infrastructure is entering a new phase:
Meeting the compliance needs of traditional finance
While retaining the innovative flexibility of Web3
This balance ability makes it an important bridge connecting two worlds.
