Core Architecture

Xiden is a Polygon Edge fork in which a new consensus algorithm and extended utility layers have been implemented. Polygon Edge architecture was chosen because it is a modular and extensible solution based on a development framework compatible with Ethereum blockchain network, sidechains and general scaling solutions.

Xiden uses existing Polygon modules that allow communication with multiple blockchain networks and comply with the ERC 20 and ERC 721 standards. This allows the initiation of data transfer between blockchains using Bridge solutions. Xiden is a blockchain with a hybrid architecture, as Xiden’s Core is Ethereum and uses Polygon Edge’s Proof of Stake architecture, over which we have integrated the PoE and PoC improved Consensus Layer.

The Xiden blockchain layer is combined with the utility module consisting of the Spectralis Network layer and the SDR layer. Thus Xiden is a new approach to the Eth solution using Polygon Edge as an intermediate layer.
