A RealEstate Decentralized cryptocurrency blockchain Created by Cryptoalps.ch

The Xian Ledger

The Xian Ledger is a decentralized cryptographic ledger powered by a network of peer-to-peer servers. The Xian Ledger uses a novel Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus algorithm to settle and record transactions in a secure distributed database without a central operator.

Xian

Xian is designed to bridge the many different currencies in use worldwide in the Real Estate Industries. Xian Coin is traded on the open-market and is available for anyone to access. The Xian Coin Ledger was created in 2020 with a finite supply of 1 billion units of Xian Coin.

Cryptoalps

The server software that powers the Xian Ledger is called Cryptoalps and is available in this repository under the permissive ISC open-source license. The Cryptoalps server is written primarily in C++ and runs on a variety of platforms.

Key Features of the Xian Ledger

• [Censorship-Resistant Transaction Processing][]: No single party decides which transactions succeed or fail, and no one can "roll back" a transaction after it completes. As long as those who choose to participate in the network keep it healthy, they can settle transactions in seconds.
• [Fast, Efficient Consensus Algorithm][]: The Xian Ledger's consensus algorithm settles transactions in 4 to 5 seconds, processing at a throughput of up to 1500 transactions per second. These properties put Xian at least an order of magnitude ahead of other top digital assets.
• [Finite XRP Supply][]: When the Xian Ledger began, 1 Billion Xian were created, and no more Xian will ever be created. The available supply of Xian decreases slowly over time as small amounts are destroyed to pay transaction costs.
• [Responsible Software Governance][]: A team of full-time, world-class developers at Xian maintain and continually improve the Xian Ledger's underlying software with contributions from the open-source community. Ripple acts as a steward for the technology and an advocate for its interests, and builds constructive relationships with governments and financial institutions worldwide.
• [Secure, Adaptable Cryptography][]: The Xian Ledger relies on industry standard digital signature systems like ECDSA (the same scheme used by Bitcoin) but also supports modern, efficient algorithms like Ed25519. The extensible nature of the XRP Ledger's software makes it possible to add and disable algorithms as the state of the art in cryptography advances.
• [Modern Features for Smart Contracts][]: Features like Escrow, Checks, and Payment Channels support cutting-edge financial applications including the Interledger Protocol. This toolbox of advanced features comes with safety features like a process for amending the network and separate checks against invariant constraints.
• [On-Ledger Decentralized Exchange][]: In addition to all the features that make Xian useful on its own, the Xian Ledger also has a fully-functional accounting system for tracking and trading obligations denominated in any way users want, and an exchange built into the protocol. The Xian Ledger can settle long, cross-currency payment paths and exchanges of multiple currencies in atomic transactions, bridging gaps of trust with Xian.
