Caldera (ERA) understands the "light startup" needs of small and medium teams best. No need to buy servers, no need to set up nodes, with its cloud deployment tools, you can rent ready-made node resources by paying a little ERA, and even the initial data backup is done automatically. For example, a small team of three wanting to create on-chain tools can start a test chain with just 1000 ERA, saving 70% of infrastructure costs compared to building it themselves. Moreover, its "elastic scaling" feature is very considerate; when the user base increases, nodes are automatically added, and when traffic decreases, resources are automatically scaled down, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.

The "incentive design" of the ERA token is very practical. The recently launched "Early Developer Program" allows participants to receive ERA rewards based on daily active users after deploying applications in the ecosystem for three months—projects with over 1000 daily active users can receive 50,000 ERA each month. The token distribution also leans towards those who take action, with half of the 30% airdrop allocated to developers who actually write code, rather than just holders of wallet addresses.

There are many "small but beautiful" projects in the ecosystem now: tools for on-chain data analysis, robots that help users automatically arbitrage across chains; these project teams have fewer than five members but have quickly landed thanks to Caldera. This "low cost + strong support" model is making it an "incubator" for Web3 innovation. $ERA @Caldera Official #caldera
