Caldera continues to solidify its position as one of the most advanced Rollup-as-a-Service (RaaS) providers, with a series of major upgrades and partnerships that expand both scalability and real-world use cases. The project is not only streamlining how developers deploy Ethereum rollups but also pushing the boundaries of what rollups can achieve across entertainment, AI, and global infrastructure.
EigenDA V2 Integration — Scaling to 100 MB/s
In a landmark move, Caldera has partnered with EigenCloud to integrate EigenDA V2, an upgrade that supercharges rollup throughput to as high as 100 MB/s. This improvement represents a massive leap forward for rollup performance, providing the bandwidth needed for high-frequency financial applications, large-scale gaming ecosystems, and real-time decentralized apps.
By embedding EigenDA V2, Caldera ensures that its rollup deployments aren’t just flexible and modular, but also enterprise-grade scalable — making Ethereum L2s capable of handling workloads previously considered impossible.
Mawari Partnership — AI-Powered Streaming at Scale
On August 15, Caldera announced a strategic collaboration with Mawari, a pioneer in immersive streaming technology. Together, the two teams are launching AI-powered, real-time streaming experiences that can be deployed globally.
This partnership highlights Caldera’s ability to move beyond traditional blockchain use cases. By leveraging its rollup infrastructure to support interactive, AI-driven streaming, Caldera is connecting blockchain scalability with next-gen media experiences. This fusion of decentralized infrastructure with immersive tech could be a preview of how Web3 integrates with the metaverse, AR/VR, and entertainment industries.
Token & Metalayer Rollout — The $ERA Era Begins
July marked the official launch of $ERA , Caldera’s native utility and governance token. $ERA fuels transaction fees, staking, and DAO governance across the Caldera ecosystem.
But the real breakthrough comes from the debut of Metalayer, Caldera’s interoperability protocol designed to link rollups seamlessly. Metalayer allows assets and data to flow freely across fragmented L2 ecosystems, transforming isolated chains into a cohesive, interoperable Web3 network.
With ERA at the center, Caldera aligns incentives for builders, validators, and token holders — creating both economic sustainability and long-term community engagement.
Final Thoughts
Caldera is proving itself to be far more than a rollup deployment service. With EigenDA V2 scaling, Mawari streaming integration, and the $ERA-powered Metalayer, it is shaping the future of blockchain infrastructure and demonstrating how rollups can power use cases well beyond DeFi.
As Web3 moves into an era defined by high performance, interoperability, and real-world integrations, Caldera is positioning itself as the go-to backbone for the next wave of decentralized applications.
