Ardor Platform for Business—Scalable Blockchain

Ardor Platform makes blockchain technology available to businesses, start-ups, banks and governments.

Ardor - Advanced Blockchain Technology

The Ardor Blockchain-as-a-Service Platform was created by Jelurida using the proven features of the solid, reliable Nxt blockchain technology. Ardor extends Nxt for use in certain applications that require scalability and want to avoid “mining” required by some developing blockchains.

There are two parts to the Ardor Platform—the Ardor main chain and child chains that are the distinct blockchains created for business with use-specific features and applications.

The Ardor Main Chain
The Ardor main chain is the blockchain that will secure all of the child chains and process their transactions. Some transactions will take place on the Ardor main blockchain like the exchange of the Ardor token (ARDR) from one account to another.

The features on the Ardor main blockchain are limited to improve performance and to reduce the blockchain bloat that occurs with the accumulated storage of information.

Ardor is 100% Proof-of-Stake so no additional processing will be needed for mining as all tokens have already been created.

Fast
Each block containing all child chain transactions will be processed in around 60 seconds or less.

Scalable
Child chain transaction data will be pruned to reduce the size of the blockchain.

Secure
Ardor was by Jelurida, the company of the core development team of Nxt, a blockchain with years of proven security and stability.
