Welcome to the first-ever Ark Fellowship! Think of it as a general thread.
Veeky Forums recently raised $700,000 USD (!) in under 6 days to fund an Ark staking pool, using Ark's innovative delegate proof-of-stake system. We currently have over a million Ark in our pool, though about half of them are whales.
>What is Ark?
ARK provides users, developers, and startups with innovative blockchain technologies. Accessible via push button clone-able blockchains, and our SmartBridge technology. ARK aims to create an entire ecosystem of linked chains and a virtual spiderweb of endless use-cases that make ARK highly flexible, adaptable, and scalable. ARK is a secure platform designed for mass adoption and will deliver the services that consumers want and developers need.
>The Team
The head of development: Francois-Xavier Thoorens.
French former rocket scientist who has worked with launching satellites for the EU, was a core developer at Lisk, speaks 4 languages, has been a part of previous startup ventures and has decades of programming knowledge and experience.
He's also a good composer from what I've researched: soundcloud.com
In short, the dude's a genius.
