Overview

• Launching a blockchain used to mean negotiating months of infrastructure, validators, and bridging.

• Caldera flips that: in just a few clicks, developers can spin up a custom rollup—whether Optimistic or ZK—choose their preferred VM (Arbitrum, OP Stack, zkSync, Polygon CDK), data layer (Ethereum, Celestia, NEAR), and even governance model.

• Every new rollup is seamlessly connected to Caldera’s Metalayer, giving it instant interoperability, shared liquidity, and messaging—like launching your own chain backed by a glowing Web3 network.

Core Offerings

• Deploy in Minutes — One-click deployment bundles execution logic, DA layer, network setup, and explorer UI into a ready chain.

• Metalayer Integration — All rollups connect by default, enabling token, asset, and message flow across chains without manual bridges.

• Customizable Stack — Tailor every layer: VM type, data availability, gas token, even runtime parameters—no boilerplate infrastructure needed.

Technical Edge

• Modular Architecture — Four-layer design lets every rollup mix execution, DA, messaging, and governance—keeping performance scalable and flexible.

• High Throughput & Low Cost — Designed for 20,000 TPS and transaction fees near $0.001—ideal for real-time apps and game environments.

• Hot-Swapable Stack — Upgrade components without disrupting the chain: a truly cloud-native approach to blockchain architecture.

Innovations & Ecosystem Momentum

• ERA Token — Powers gas, staking to secure Guardian nodes, and decentralized governance across the Caldera network.

• Strong Adoption — Over 100 rollups deployed (30+ live on mainnet), supporting millions of users, hundreds of millions of transactions, and over $500M in total value locked.

• Market Confidence — Backed by major investors like Founders Fund, Sequoia, Dragonfly, and Ethereal Ventures—affirming Caldera’s foundational role for appchains.
