Polkadot’s mass interoperability through a set of common validators helps to secure its multiple blockchains and allows them to scale their transactions by spreading their data across many parachains.
The network uses the NPoS (nominated proof-of-stake) mechanism to select validators and nominators and maximize chain security.
This unique validity scheme enables chains to interact with each other securely under the same rules, yet remain independently governed.
