in #arkecosystem5 years ago

June is in the box! The ARK Team is pleased to bring you the return of the
monthly newsletter, now packed with more highlights, activities, achievements,
and unique content. Let’s take a look at what the team has been up to during the
past month.


JUNE REMARKS

“ARK has made great strides in June. Websockets and parallel relay
sync

brought a huge stability and speed boost to ARK Core. Syncing the chain from
zero is now faster than ever. Of course, our desktop and mobile wallets still
work instantly with no sync required. Our Slack, Reddit, and Twitter have seen
steady growth through June as the blockchain community continues to build
interest in what we’re doing. With Core v2.5 and v2.6 around the corner, there
will be more utilities and features for developers to harness including the
long-anticipated AIP-11/18/29
implementations
. ARK.io is hard at work
hand in hand with the community, and I only see that increasing as we move
through Summer.”

Justin Renken, ARK.io Senior Brand Manager


JUNE ARK TIMELINE

ArkTimeline.com is a community resource built and
maintained by the ARK Community Committee. The entire history of all ARK
achievements and accomplishments are available there, and they are both sortable
and filterable. Here’s a quick rundown for June:


JUNE FRANCE ACTIVITIES

ARK.io is incorporated as an SCIC in
France, giving ARK a leg up when interfacing with the legacy financial system.
This SCIC is the first of its kind for crypto in France.

  • On June 4th, ARK CEO Francois-Xavier Thoorens appeared in the French press for
    Les Échos, the first daily French financial newspaper.

  • On June 14th, FX Thoorens participated in a meetup orchestrated by AssoCryptoFR,
    a French cryptocurrency association. The theme was “Cryptocurency and
    Governance” and featured discussion on why a cryptocurrency network is always
    linked to a social contract of governance. Participants included WisElement,
    Tezos, LGO, and Ethereum France.

  • On June 19th, FX Thoorens gave a presentation pertaining to local currencies in
    the Franche-Comté region of France. They run alongside the euro to serve
    communities. FX met Jean-Christophe Léonard, a La Pive representative who is
    interested in ARK technology.

JUNE ADVENTURES

Some members of the ARK team assembled in New York City for Consensus NYC 2019
in May. The team gave a special presentation on ARK at the show, made new
connections, had private meetings, and participated in media opportunities. June
brought the release of a new ARK Adventure video. If you missed the video all
