功能
Current features of Ardor, as of version 3.0.1e, include:
账户控制
With Account control, any account can be restricted to only issuing phased transactions subject to a specific voting model. This enables interesting use cases like:
- Multi-signature, so that more than one key is required to authorize a transaction.
- Tagging, so that an account tagged as e.g. "savings" cannot, for example, send tokens.
- Escrow, so that a locked account cannot transfer assets, aliases, etc. except when some specific circumstances are met.
账户租借
Account leasing allow users to lease their forging power to another account for a fixed period of time. This enables the creation of forging pools, where the forging power of multiple users is combined to increase the chance of generating a block.
Account leasing is also relevant if a user wants to take part in the forging process without having to keep a node running 24/7.

账户监控
An Account monitor is a component that automatically transfers child chain tokens (eg: IGNIS), ASSET or CURRENCY from a funding account to recipient accounts when the amount held by the recipient accounts drops below a set threshold.
账户属性
Account properties enable Ardor users to permanently tag an Ardor account with a small amount of data. These properties can then be used to provide meta-information about an account and can be linked to phasing by property conditions.
资产属性
Asset properties allow attaching metadata to assets, in the form of name/value pairs. Anyone can set a property on an asset. Only the asset issuer, or the setter of the property, can delete a property. The setter of a property can edit it by setting a new property with the same name.
别名系统
Ardor implements an alias system that translates alphanumeric text into almost anything: Ardor account addresses, email addresses, URLs, phone numbers, SKU codes, and more. The Alias system not only gives Ardor the ability to function as a Decentralized DNS system, but also adds additional possibilities for mapping short names to other entities.
信息共享
Arbitrary messages allow Ardor users to send small amounts of data through the decentralized network. This data can be optionally encrypted. The term "message" is loose: this feature can be used to send simple text messages, but can also be used to send up to 1000 bytes of any data. As a result, it can be used to build file-sharing services, decentralized applications, and higher-level Ardor services.
资产控制
The Asset Control feature allows imposing restriction to all transactions involving a given asset - such as placing bid and ask orders, transfers, share deletions, and dividend payments that use the asset as a dividend to be subject to approval
资产交换
Ardor's Asset exchange provides a decentralized, peer-to-peer exchange system based on the "coins" concept that eliminates trust points and its associated fees.
Up until now, if you wanted to trade cryptocurrencies and other digital assets, you had to sign up for an account on a centralized platform such as Cryptsy/BTC-E/Bter/etc, transfer your assets to them, and pay them transaction fees. This brings in a large concern: a centralized exchange could just bail with everyone's deposits.
The same technology used to trade Ardor for other child chain tokens can allow you to trade any token within the Ardor multichain platform for almost any commodity.

交易打包
Bundling is the process of grouping transactions from a child chain into a transaction on the Ardor chain. Bundlers accept fees from those child chain transactions in the corresponding child chain coin, and pay fees in ARDR to the parent chain forgers.
兑换集成
Changelly is a market making service which utilizes crypto exchanges to provide seamless exchange of crypto tokens without user registration. Starting from Ardor version 2.1.2 the Ardor wallet integrates the changelly service to enable Ardor and Ignis exchange with any other crypto directly from the wallet.
连锁控制
The Child Chain Control is a feature that introduces permissioning to the Ardor multichain platform. It manages authorization levels of users on child chains. When operating on the chain that has permissioning policy enabled users can be restricted from performing chain transactions.
代币兑换
The Coin exchange is an Ardor feature that allows users to trade child chain tokens on the blockchain using buy and sell orders and a built-in matching engine.
代币改组
Coin shuffling is a privacy feature that enables users to mix their funds with that of others. The process is quick and efficient and works by creating a random mapping between the existing user accounts and different, new recipient accounts also provided by the users.
合成构建
Composite phasing (or "Smart Phasing") is a powerful new feature that allows joining the current primitive approval models (such as by whitelist, by asset balance, by secret, etc) using the AND, OR, and NOT operators.
As simple as it sounds, defining new approval models in terms of boolean expressions provides an incredible amount of flexibility to our transaction workflow.
数据云端
The Ardor Data Cloud is a decentralised data storage system. It is a feature that is reserved for the Ardor child chains
In addition to keeping a record of Ardor transactions, the blockchain can also be used to store user-defined data. All forms of data can be uploaded to the Ardor blockchain, providing a secure (and, if desired, permanent) method of storing, retrieving and publishing information
区块创建
In Ardor the process of block generation is called forging. Every Ardor node is involved into this providing the associated wallet has at least 1.000 ARDR and stays open no less than 24 hours (1440 blocks)
可视化安装
The graphical installer provides a simple and user friendly setup of the Ardor client software for the supported operating systems.
轻量级合约
Lightweight contracts is a powerful new framework to develop a layer of automation on top of the existing Ardor APIs.
Contracts are developed by implementing pre-defined interfaces. The contract code is deployed to the blockchain as cloud data transaction which stores the code itself and a contract reference transaction which provides the trigger to activate the contract and provides the setup parameters.
数字商城
The Marketplace feature provides a protocol for building decentralized, peer-to-peer stores for any kind of digital goods.
代币系统
The monetary system enables any user to issue customizable currencies secured by the Ardor network.

交易分型
Phasing allows transactions with deferred execution, with or without conditions, which forms the basis of many use cases.
插件系统
The plugin framework allows third-party software developers to add new functionality and embed it directly into the Ardor client interface.
交易凭证
Transaction Vouchers is a feature that simplifies and reduces the possible errors when two addresses make a transaction each other on the blockchain.
投票系统
The secure, encrypted, consensus-based nature of the Ardor network allows the implementation of a voting system that guarantees anonymity and security, without relying on a central authority to tally the votes.
隐私分享
Protect your account passphrase by splitting it into multiple shares that only some of them are required to reconstruct the passphrase.
