What is Rufus Chain?
Overview of what Rufus Chain is and how it works.
Rufus Chain is a Layer-2 blockchain built using the Arbitrum Nitro stack in collaboration with Caldera. It was created to support Dogelon Mars’s evolving ecosystem — from DeFi and GameFi to its AI-powered metaverse — while offering lower fees and scalable infrastructure.
At its core, Rufus Chain is governed by the Dogelon DAO and uses $ELON as its native currency and gas token. Gas fees are paid in $ELON and permanently burned with each transaction, reducing the circulating supply.
Why Rufus Chain?
As Dogelon Mars evolves from its meme origins into a full-featured ecosystem, Rufus Chain was proposed and approved by the Dogelon DAO to serve as the technical foundation for future growth.
Rufus enables:
- 🪐 An L2 optimized for GameFi and AI-powered virtual worlds
- 🔥 Deflationary tokenomics — every transaction burns $ELON
- 🔗 Bridges for seamless movement between Ethereum and Rufus
- ⚙️ On-chain governance through the Dogelon DAO
Unlike deploying directly on Arbitrum One or Nova, Rufus gives Dogelon full control over network fees, token economics, and feature development — fully aligned with the community’s vision.
