1. Project Overview

Caldera is the Internet of Rollups — an ecosystem of modular, interconnected, and customizable blockchains.

By offering production-ready rollups and cross-chain interoperability through its Metalayer, Caldera enables scalable, low-cost, and composable Web3 infrastructure for developers and institutions.

With 100+ rollups, $400M+ in TVL, and 27M+ unique wallets, Caldera has rapidly become one of the most trusted rollup infrastructure providers in crypto.

2. Token Information

  • Token Name: Caldera ($ERA )

  • Token Type: ERC-20, BEP-20

  • Initial Supply (Listed on Binance): 148,500,000 ERA (14.85%)

  • Total Supply: 1,000,000,000 ERA

3. Project Highlights


  1. Metalayer: Cross-chain interoperability framework

    • Equipped with an Intents Engine that simplifies cross-chain execution through high-level intent definitions.

    • Built on Hyperlane, the Message Passing Protocol supports reliable 1-to-1 and many-to-1 cross-chain communication.

    • Designed with security and composability to support modular, multichain dApps.

  2. Production-ready Rollups as a Service (RaaS)

    • Caldera enables instant deployment of rollups with integrated infrastructure like sequencers, RPC nodes, and explorers.

    • Currently powers 100+ chains and 30+ live mainnets across various use cases and rollup stacks.

  3. Early mover in modular blockchain adoption

    • First to launch a mainnet rollup with Celestia DA

    • Supports Optimistic Rollups, Arbitrum Orbit, and ZK Stack, providing unparalleled flexibility

  4. Hypergrowth metrics and adoption

    • Processed over 850M transactions

    • Supports 27M+ unique wallets with ~250K daily active users

    • Maintains a 5M+ MAU user base through the Catalyst campaign

    • Partners include Apechain, Manta Pacific, XPLA, Zerion, and more

  5. Backed by top-tier investors

    • Raised capital in 4 rounds with support from Sequoia Capital, Dragonfly, and Founders Fund

    • 32.075% of total token supply allocated to investors

  6. Global user base & ecosystem portal

    • Traffic from USA, India, Indonesia, Vietnam, Japan, Germany, Nigeria, and others

    • Users can access the Caldera Ecosystem Portal (portal.caldera.xyz) to monitor real-time analytics across chains

4. Token Utility

Staking

  • ERA will secure both Caldera’s network and future sub-networks.

  • In later phases, staked ERA will be used in liquidity relay pools and solver-based mechanisms.

  • Staking may be required to access shared liquidity, sequencing rights, or cross-chain services.

Payment Currency

  • ERA will be used for universal cross-chain gas fees within the Metalayer

  • Used to pay for relaying messages, intents execution, and bridging

  • Token sinks planned via Metalayer fee burns and solver participation

Network Governancy

  • ERA holders can vote on protocol upgrades, fee models, token emissions, and DAO treasury decisions

  • Future DAO governance will include rollup configuration parameters and infrastructure incentives

Social Coordination

  • Acts as a social utility to bootstrap liquidity and coordination among new rollups

  • Aligns incentives for rollup creators, validators, and ecosystem contributors during early-stage network development
