It’s been a busy few months, but the new ARK website is almost ready for launch! With pages tailored for developers and the ARK community it’s now easier to find exactly what you need. Here’s a little preview …

Usually I just watch this thread but the fact that Ark dropped out of the top 100 recently made me want to drop a few lines here. For me the problem with Ark is that it is so far off its original plans right now. People initially invested on Ark for the features it initially promised to bring but the team seem to have taken a large detour to get there. I feel that it will take them one to three years of Ark core versions to go back to the original plans : interoperability, IPFS, NFC, Smart Card, ArkVM. Other original plan elements (IPDB, anonymous transactions) seem to have been scrapped or set aside without it being clearly stated by the team. ArkVM is morphing into ArkLogic in the latest whitepaper. Also Ark has not had any major partnership despite FX Thoorens' ties to members of the French government. Those partnerships with big companies or governments are oftenly what puts altcoins on the map. Another point : Ark arrived in early 2017 in the crypto sphere, that's pretty late (first mover advantage seem to be really important in the crypto sphere). Even despite the Roadmap it's not quite clear in which order and when the team intends to bring this and that feature. I do want to say however that the team has kept on delevering new things and advancements steadily and that Ark is undervalued.

I have not been here from the begining but I remember that the community was pushing point.click.blockchain thing. And we can see the results. Although I agree with several things you mentiined ARK is one of the few coins I keep buying and will do in the future

Thanks. You should offer bounty or contest to creating more worthy apps so people know more about Ark.

Dear ARK team, I was wondering about your plan for future marketing campaigns. You've already created an awesome advertising video but other than that, how do you plan to proceed? Are you waiting for a specific development milestone to be reached first or maybe are you planning to allow the community to do the advertising?

Yes, you need advertising on YouTube from top bloggers in at least 7 languages, and better in 12 languages ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . Highlight a bounty community for advertising on twitter, facebook and so on. Urgently make apps for PCs and smartphones using the ark. Make a video instruction how to create your own coin.

Excellent question sir. But and it's a big butt. You got more chance of getting a whale up your arse, than getting an answe sir. ,r Well, they're mainly active in Slack which is understandable really. They are present in a total of 12 social media including this forum. In order for them to be active in all of these media it'd take either of these two things... A) A person who would solely be active in these channels and speak with the community. That'd be good if they had customers in these channels, but their customer base is developer teams. The only thing one such person would do is give generic answers to generic questions of investors and "moon-investors". That's a salary going to waste. B) Alternatively, the core team themselves would have to monitor these channels, but then this would take away from their development time. As a developer myself, I know how hard it is to proceed with your software's development if every now and then you pause in order to read or reply to a message. So as things stand, I don't take the teams absence from the forums as a sign that they don't care about their community. They are just being efficient and that's great for me as an investor. They only post announcement here, which is fine. I'll try get an answer in Slack I suppose!

They will be targeting the B2B/Enterprise space within certain market sectors. These are IoT, Supply Chain, Gaming and Government."

I haven't used Ledger Nano with ARK lately, I mean... I had no reason to withdraw... ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) ... but previously I had some issues with connectivity (the Ledger was not being recognised until multiple USB reconnects and/or PC restarts). With ARK v2 I didn't have problems the 1 or 2 times I used it and I'm glad to hear there have been more improvements. The upcoming bluetooth support for Nano X is also awesome!
