ARK is meant to be a push-button deployable blockchain that can be replicated and forked by startups and other companies that seek to utilize the ARK business model. In other ways, it is comparable to coins like LSK and SHIFT. These are coins that will utilize IPFS, a decentralized means of storing data.

>What is IPFS?

IPFS is a peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol to make the web faster, safer, and more secure. It has been lauded as the next iteration of the internet and a replacement for HTTPS. For more on this:

IPFS Wikipedia

IPFS.io site
>https://ipfs.io/
>https://ipfs.io/docs/getting-started/

Newsweek article
>http://www.newsweek.com/how-ipfs-reimagining-internet-512566

There are several coins that are currently implementing IPFS in some form or another, ARK is one of them.

>B-but how is ARK different?

ARK is developing 'Smartbridges' -CONT-

>Smartbridges

https://blog.ark.io/what-is-the-ark-smartbridge-and-how-does-it-work-1dd7fb1e17a0
It is developed by the ARK team to allow intercommunication between the BTC, ETH, ARK, and LSK blockchains, among others.

>What does that mean?

One example of using Smartbridge is the transfer of payments through various blockchain networks. This allows users to send a transaction with a specific amount of ETH from ARK, directly to the holder of the ETH account, once the information is processed and verified. Other applications will eventually lead to the transfer of data for user profiles, service ratings, contracts, and other applications. The use cases really are endless.

Another use case could be a 3rd party coin exchange service may look for specific triggers and handle cross blockchain payments for their customers. For example, You have ARK but want to pay for a movie using Netflix Credits but you don’t have any Netflix Credits. You could go through multiple steps to transfer into these credits to watch a movie but because you are a member of Bob’s coinshift platform, you can send an ARK transaction to bob with the instructions to pay for the video you want to watch with Netflix Credits on your behalf. This would not require Bob to be there and would be handled by the Centralized and Decentralized system that Bob’s Coinshift provides instantly for the consumer.

Only if you have a high volume of ARK (20k+) which most don't have.

The walls prevent any huge P+D momentum, and 1k ARK isn't gonna net you hardly anything if you're just scalping the market like these bots.

As I said, the tech is there, the team is there, this is a long term coin.

Those orders are not as bad as they look. There is 53 btc between current price and 500k sats, which is not much.

The problem with trusting the order book graph is that a lot of people don't even bother placing an order until the time is ripe. It's so hard to make long-term judgments using this.

The admins of the pool are currently trying to make it so people with smaller amounts get more than giant whales who just switched votes over to get our benefits.

Also working on making it so early adopters end up getting more than people who had a later adoption.

ARK is absolute garbage. PoS means there's no appreciation in value as there are more and more coins without any cost. It's not free money, it's the same value (nothing), buit speculation may drive up the price in the short term. Long term, you will see a downwards trending graph.

>PoS means there's no appreciation in value as there are more and more coins without any cost

Just because you can generate coins through staking doesn't mean you eliminate all appreciation. Prove to me it does and then I'll concede to your point.

A PoS system is much more secure against 51% attacks and takes away the practicality of implementing one. Everyone knows this. Vitalik has said this is one of the main advantages a PoS has over PoW and one of the main reasons why he believes it's the right direction for ETH to go.

You either know just enough about what you're talking about to have an opinion or you are just trying to fud. Either way, you're wrong and you have absolutely no data to suggest that PoS would result in that outcome.

No, it's garbage because all they have is the PoS thing. PoS is a way to secure your coin, not a way to enrich your users. it's retarded. You either HAVE TO stake or you become poor or you do stake and become rich. Tip: it's the first option.
