Ark (ARK.io) Project Update
Get Caught Up
Mainsail Public Testnet and EVM Compatibility Progress
Throughout November 2025, the Mainsail team released Public Testnet v0.0.1-rc.7, which introduced NTP time synchronization, maintenance mode support for API Sync, and performance improvements across the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine — a runtime environment for executing smart contracts) and consensus modules 1. Subsequent weeks saw Mainsail expand JSON RPC functionality, adding support for
deploy-transaction in eth_call and eth_estimateGas, and extend ERC20 token support in the API 23. This matters because it signals Ark's push toward broader smart-contract and token interoperability, positioning the network to support a wider range of decentralized applications.ARK Vault Feature Expansion
The ARK Vault team made substantial progress on user-facing tooling, finalizing a Contract Deployment feature that enables users to deploy pre-compiled contracts, and advancing a redesigned Notifications system with transaction-specific styling 45. The team also began integrating token display functionality, introducing token interfaces and improving visibility across mobile and single-address views 3. These enhancements matter because they lower the barrier for non-technical users to interact with contracts and manage assets directly within the wallet.
ARK Scan Inertia Migration
The ARK Scan team focused heavily on migrating to the Inertia framework, completing the validators page, block statistics, and wallet page, while introducing features like a desktop price ticker, theme manager, and network manager 36. This migration matters because it modernizes the block explorer's architecture, improving performance and mobile responsiveness for users monitoring network activity.
