We saw a selloff this week, and between that blood river, there was one Crypto floating in the green, funny because its name is Ark.
Ep. 9: Ark (ARK)
1- OVERVIEW
ARK aims to create an ecosystem of linked chains using a SmartBridge technology. Claims to be fast, decentralized and sustainable.
It uses a variation of other DPoS consensus models, where the voting weight is divided across all votes instead of assigning 100% weight to each vote, they say it makes it nearly impossible for a takeover of the network (i'm not so sure about that but it reduced a lot the "tragedy of the commons" issue).
2- Ark's Ecosystem

They'll provide physical cards and tools for off-chain transactions. They claim to reach even people without traditional bank accounts.Bridged Blockchain
