The governance function of $ERA allows the Caldera ecosystem to be truly 'community-driven'. Token holders can participate in key decisions such as protocol upgrades and fund allocation—want to optimize the cross-Rollup fee model? Want to support a certain type of ecological project? Community votes decide. This design ensures that ecological development is not dominated by a few teams but rather harnesses community wisdom. For example, proposals for Metalayer function upgrades or discussions on ecological fund allocation give ERA holders a voice. During governance, staking tokens can also enhance weight, incentivizing long-term participation. Caldera uses ERA governance to hand the steering wheel of the ecosystem to the community, ensuring development aligns with user needs.
Caldera: Making Rollup Development 'Simple' Instead of 'Difficult'
In the past, developing Rollup required high technical and resource demands, but Caldera simplifies this process. It provides tools and frameworks that allow developers to quickly build customized Rollups: without starting from scratch, based on the Ethereum security system, and adaptable to scenarios such as DeFi, NFTs, and blockchain games. For example, for an on-chain lending project, one can customize Rollup to optimize liquidation efficiency; for a metaverse game, one can design a cross-chain economic system. More importantly, these Rollups can integrate into the larger ecosystem through Metalayer, eliminating isolation concerns. Although the ERA token does not directly lower the technical threshold, the ecosystem it drives (staking security, governance collaboration) allows developers to invest in innovation with greater peace of mind, accelerating the implementation of Rollup applications.
