A Confluence of Scalability and Interoperability

Router Protocol is integrating with Caldera, a RaaS platform designed for the easy deployment of rollups. Caldera enables the creation of high-performance modular blockchains, utilizing the innovative frameworks of Arbitrum Nitro, Optimism Bedrock, and Polygon CDK.

The goal of this collaboration is to enhance the interconnectivity of app chains developed with Caldera. In essence, once you’ve utilized Caldera’s Rollup-as-a-Service platform, you can broaden your rollup’s reach by connecting it to additional chains. This expansion is made possible through the integration capabilities provided by Router Protocol’s infrastructure.

Router Protocol for Caldera, a complete package!

For those building on Caldera. Router Protocol introduces a decentralized system that broadens the application’s reach and enhances its functionality. It supports decentralized cross-chain requests, allowing dApps to interact over a wider network, thereby attracting a larger user base. The rollups being built on Caldera will immediately become interoperable with 20+ chains that Router has integrated into, once the implementation goes live!

A key feature of the Router Chain is its support for middleware contracts, which grants developers the freedom to design unique bridging solutions tailored to their specific needs.

The infra suite includes Router Cross-chain Intents Framework (CCIF), introducing an additional utility layer and making dApps chain agnostic. This framework equips dApps with a powerful intent layer that integrates effortlessly with the application layers of any blockchain network. As a result, applications can easily implement cross-chain features like asset swapping, bridging, and staking, all through a user-friendly interface.

We also offer Router Nitro — a cutting-edge swapping engine by Router Protocol. It facilitates seamless token transfers and swaps across various blockchain environments, including EVM and non-EVM chains such as Ethereum, Scroll, BSC, Rootstock, Manta, Tron, and more. Developers can integrate this engine into their dApps for enhanced token mobility and functionality.

Looking Ahead

As we wrap up our exploration of the integration between Router Protocol and Caldera, it’s clear that this partnership is a bridge to a future where the walls between different blockchain ecosystems are dismantled, enabling a seamless flow of data, assets, and possibilities.

For developers and innovators who choose to build on Caldera, the integration with Router Protocol offers a treasure trove of opportunities.

Deploy a rollup as simple as a single click, and the boundaries of your application’s reach will only be limited by your imagination. This is the world that Router Protocol and Caldera are building together — a world where every application, regardless of its native chain, can interact with the broader blockchain universe meaningfully and efficiently.
