Caldera: Application chain + Rollup is the future

The so-called App-Rollup is generally understood as a rollup expansion network in the direction of the application chain.

In Caldera's view, with the continuous advancement of Web3, tens of thousands of Dapps will appear in the chain ecology in the future, and some contradictions of "bottom vs application" that may not be obvious at present will gradually become prominent.

On the one hand, if the expansion speed of the underlying network cannot keep up with the emergence of Dapps, more and more Dapps will inevitably compete with each other for limited computing resources, which will inevitably lead to rising gas costs; on the other hand, finance, games Dapps in different aspects such as social networking and social networking have different requirements for transaction frequency and types. It is difficult for a single bottom layer (even with a few mainstream Rollups) to meet the needs of multiple parties. The long-term result is that Dapps have to cooperate with the bottom layer Proactively tweak or even cut functionality.

Therefore, Caldera believes that the application chain serving specific Dapps will have a broad demand market in the future, and since the Rollup solution has become the expansion consensus of the Ethereum community, it began to explore service solutions around the App-Rollup scenario.

Specifically,Caldera provides the simplest and most convenient App-Rollup distribution solution, anyone can use this solution to start an Optimistic Rollup application chain within 5 minutes.These apps - Rollup can have higher performance and lower network costs, and can also rely on Rollup's architecture to inherit security from Layer 1 such as Ethereum.

How to interact? Ready in 5 minutes

Caldera has currently opened access to this solution (https://dashboard.caldera.xyz/), interested friends can interact through this link, the specific interaction steps are as follows:

1. After opening the interface, click Login in the upper right corner of the interface (as shown in the figure below) to log in with your email.

2. Continue to look at the picture above. After the login is complete, enter the name you want to give App - Rollup in the Rollup Name on the lower interface, and then set a Chain ID, then click Launch Rollup to start a test network. Waiting for about 5 minutes, a fully functional App - Rollup can be built, and Caldera also provides a common block explorer for all networks.

3. However, perhaps due to the current large number of visitors, after clicking Launch Rollup, Caldera will prompt to try again later (it has not been very good recently, try it in your spare time). At this time, Caldera also provides a deployed testnet for us to try out first, click Go to public testnet to access it.

4. After clicking, Caldera will give us the details of a deployed testnet.

5. After that, we need to use this information to add the testnet in the wallet, the following picture is an example of MetaMask.

6. After the addition is complete, we will be able to switch the network to the test network (caldera-public-1) in the wallet.

7. At this time, we can use a stress test mini-game (Break Caldera) provided by Caldera to test the performance of the testnet, and we can also apply for some test coins from the faucet (there seems to be a delay) for transfer interaction.

8. If the user runs through the process of starting the network in step 2, he can directly try the interactive content in step 7 in the test network he started. However, since these own testnets do not come with their own Dapps (need to be deployed by themselves), for users who do not know much about programming, the simplest interactive operation is just to transfer money.
