Caldera Series (7): Deploying the Caldera Rollup Mechanism
Scalability has always been a pain point in the blockchain industry, and Caldera's Rollup mechanism provides an elegant solution to this problem. The ERA token plays an important role in the deployment of Caldera Rollup, serving not only as a tool for paying gas fees but also incentivizing validators and sequencers within the network. Caldera supports developers in quickly deploying their own dedicated Rollup through simple dashboard operations, whether based on Arbitrum Nitro, Optimism Bedrock, or ZK Stack.
Deploying a Rollup is like building blocks; Caldera provides a modular toolkit. Developers only need to choose the chain framework, set up the native token (usually $ERA ), and then with just a few clicks on the dashboard, they can launch a high-performance Layer 2 chain. This convenience allows small and medium-sized enterprises to have their own blockchain network without the need for complex development processes.
The role of the ERA token in Rollup deployment goes far beyond this. It incentivizes validators to maintain network security through a staking mechanism while providing users with a low-cost transaction environment. Compared to traditional Layer 1 chains, the transaction fees of Caldera Rollup can be reduced by over 90%, and block confirmation times are shortened to the millisecond level. This efficiency makes the ERA token a link between users and developers, laying the foundation for the prosperity of the Caldera ecosystem.
