1. Overview — @Caldera Official $ERA #ERA #Caldera

Caldera is a Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS) platform that empowers developers to easily build custom, high-performance rollups for Ethereum Layer-2 networks like Optimism, Arbitrum, ZKsync, and Polygon.


Core Components:



  • Rollup Engine — Create and manage rollups in minutes via UI or APIs, similar to AWS for web apps.


  • Metalayer — A transparent layer connecting rollups, enabling liquidity sharing, instant bridging, and seamless message transfer.


2. Why Caldera?

Ethereum’s scaling relies on rollups, but most operate in isolation, limiting efficiency. Caldera solves this with:



  • Platform-independent architecture — Fully customizable rollups (Optimistic, ZK, etc.) with tailored data layers.


  • Unified ecosystem via Metalayer — Rollups interact as if on one chain, improving speed, cost, liquidity, and UX.


3. Ecosystem Growth

With 60+ active rollup networks, Caldera powers ecosystems in DeFi, gaming, NFTs, and social apps.

Notable examples:



  • Manta Pacific — Modular L2 for ZK apps.


  • ApeChain — NFT & gaming-focused chain for ApeCoin.


  • inEVM (Injective) — Adds EVM compatibility to Injective.


4. ERA Token Utility



  • Gas — Pay transaction fees on Metalayer.


  • Staking & Security — Validators secure the network by staking ERA.


  • Governance — Vote on upgrades, grants, and council elections.


5. Tokenomics & Stats



  • Max Supply — 1B ERA


  • Circulating — ~148.5M ERA


  • Price — ~$1.09 (+6.32%)


  • Market Cap — ~$160M


  • TVL — $550M


  • Users — 1.8M wallets, 80M+ transactions
