Caldera’s native token $ERA embodies a sophisticated tokenomics model crafted to unify incentives across the expansive modular rollup ecosystem. As the universal gas token, ERA streamlines fee payment across all rollups and facilitates fast, secure cross-rollup asset transfers via the Metalayer, reducing complexity and fragmentation.
Staking ERA grants validator nodes the right to participate in sequencing transactions and securing the network, earning rewards in proportion to their commitment and uptime. These staking rewards promote decentralization and network resilience. Governance rights embedded in ERA empower holders with voting capabilities on protocol parameters, treasury use, and upgrade proposals, ensuring a community-driven development trajectory.
Though currently without a burn mechanism, community governance will soon determine the introduction of fee burning to regulate supply and sustain value. #Caldera dynamic resource allocation protocols require $ERA for scaling compute and storage resources on demand, embedding it deeply into the ecosystem’s economic fabric.
The tokenomics model underpins @Caldera Official ambitious vision to grow a sustainable, secure, and interconnected Layer 2 ecosystem, where $ERA is more than a transactional currency—it is a strategic utility driving governance, security, and scalability
