In the Ethereum Rollup ecosystem, Caldera's Metalayer addresses three major pain points:
• Inter-chain fragmentation: Different frameworks (Optimistic/Zero-Knowledge) and Rollups in different scenarios used to be like 'islands speaking different languages'; Metalayer allows them to 'communicate', enabling asset and data cross-chain flow;
• Development redundancy: Developers creating custom Rollups no longer have to worry about cross-chain collaboration; they can directly integrate into the larger ecosystem using Metalayer, reducing the redundancy of reinventing the wheel;
• Poor user experience: Users find it difficult to transfer assets across multiple Rollups; with Metalayer, cross-chain operations are smoother, eliminating the need to repeatedly struggle on different chains.
$ERA tokens drive the operation of Metalayer, staking ensures security, and governance optimizes functionality, allowing these pain points to be resolved more thoroughly, pushing the ecosystem from 'usable' to 'user-friendly' evolution.
