$ARDR Ardor, a blockchain-as-a-service platform designed to allow businesses to build their own chains using the Ardor main chain. Ardor uses a parent-child chain architecture, where the main Ardor chain is responsible for security, while child chains, such as Ignis, can operate with their own custom features.

The ARDR token is used for securing the network through staking and also as a utility token for various operations. Ardor is designed to solve issues related to blockchain scalability by separating transactions and data of the child chains from the main chain.
