https://arkadeos.com/ has launched their mainnet beta .

I am interested to know the community thoughts on this

- Anyone actively using Ark ?
- Thoughts on technical/user roadblocks in adoption of this ?

On paper there are some nice properties with Ark, no channel juggling like Lightning, simpler onboarding, potentially better privacy than naive LN usage, and real tooling for devs (SDKs plus integrations with stuff like BTCPay etc).

It has promising architecture and a serious team, but it's still very early.

Fun to experiment with small amounts and to watch how the ASP ecosystem and tooling evolve, not something I'd route critical payments through yet.

I've been trying out the Ark beta.
It's promising. The instant, free transactions are real and it feels smooth. The main roadblock right now is that it's still new. Not many wallets or apps support it yet, so its usefulness is limited until more places integrate it.
It's a great peek at the future, but it's not fully ready for everyone.
