@Caldera Official ($ERA ): The Infrastructure Powering Ethereum’s Rollup Revolution
Why Caldera is dominating the modular rollup landscape:
• $15M Series A + Hook acquisition
Backed by Founders Fund, Caldera raised $15 million in July 2024 and acquired Hook to deepen its rollup infrastructure, accelerating development of the Metalayer.  
• Pioneering multi-VM deployment
In December 2024, Caldera became the first Web3 platform to offer multi-VM rollups, enabling SolanaVM alongside EVM — all deployable with a single click.  
• Rollup Engine + Metalayer innovation
The Rollup Engine lets developers launch dynamic, customizable rollups via API or UI. Paired with the Metalayer, Caldera connects Optimistic and ZK rollups with seamless messaging, resource sharing, and coordinated execution.   
• Token launch and explosive growth
On July 17, 2025, $ERA officially hit Gate.io, launching a powerful ecosystem milestone. Caldera now powers 100+ rollups, handling 850M+ transactions, securing $400M+ TVL, and attracting 10M+ wallets.  
• $ERA: Utility at the core of modular rollups
• Cross-rollup gas token and fee instrument
• Staking for fraud proofs, data availability, and network security
• Governance — proposals, upgrades, treasury, and community-led decisions 
Bottom line:
Caldera is doing more than deploying rollups — it’s building the fabric that interconnects them. With multi-VM support, one-click deployment, cross-rollup interoperability, and a live token ecosystem bubbling with activity, $ERA is not just part of Ethereum’s scaling story — it’s steering it.
