The Xiden blockchain's consensus layer is built on three different protocols that redefine the concept of Proof of Work and ensures scalability and sustainable and efficient development. It is primarily low-energy and eco-friendly as the integrated devices are used by their owners regularly for their daily activities.
Multiple integrated distributed processes ensure that all peers reach a common agreement and establish the optimal operation of the network.
A consensus mechanism used to validate transactions. With this system, owners of the XDEN can stake their tokens, which gives them the right to check new blocks of transactions and add them to the blockchain.
How to StakeA consensus mechanism that integrates and verifies the identities of the validators within the system. PoE is designed to work together with the other consensus mechanisms - PoS and PoC - and increase the system's security.
PoC is a layer consensus mechanism that verifies the status, validity, and availability of all the devices integrated into the Xiden blockchain, whether they are validators or devices that are part of the SDR layer.
Any attempt to fraud the system or to break the consensus rules is punished by unstaking the user’s XDEN from its KrateR Pool. The amount will be divided and distributed to the online registered devices during the first Age in order to generate liquidity in the market.
