@Caldera Official #Caldera

A friend is working on a Web3 game, and the team size is less than 20 people. The gameplay is interesting, and there are quite a few test users, but once it goes on the mainnet, the problems are immediately exposed: Gas fees are ridiculously high, and players spend dozens of dollars after fighting a few monsters. As a result, a large portion of users left, and the team was nearly on the brink of collapse.

They also considered creating their own chain, but just the development and maintenance costs were enough to deter a small team. It’s like opening a food truck, only to be told you must first build a highway; how can you play like that?

Until they encountered Caldera. It offers Rollup-as-a-Service, in simpler terms, it's "helping you launch your own L2 with one click." Project teams don't need to study complex consensus and data availability; with just a few clicks, they can have a tailor-made chain. This way, my friend's team can redirect all their energy back to the game itself, without being overwhelmed by infrastructure.

For users, the benefits are also obvious: In the future, perhaps no one will need to care about which chain they are using. The equipment you acquire in one game can be used as collateral in another DeFi application, with the process being almost seamless, and the experience approaching that of Web2.

@Caldera Official actually reflects a trend: Blockchain is moving from a "single main chain" to a "network of application chains." Games have their own chains, social networks have their own chains, finance has its own chains, and these chains are interconnected through Caldera’s underlying technology, ultimately forming a vast value internet.

Of course, there are still questions: When launching chains becomes cheap, will there be a proliferation of “air chains”? Is RaaS the ultimate solution for L2, or just a transition? But at least, it gives teams like my friend's an opportunity—to not be held hostage by infrastructure, but to focus on what they truly want to do.
