This weekly report outlines the work of the ARK development team, including new features and accomplishments achieved from May 9 to May 16, 2025.
Development Activity Summary
During the reporting period, the team maintained strong productivity and engagement, delivering 63 merged commits across all projects. It’s important to note that weekly commit counts may fluctuate based on the focus of internal sprints and task complexity.
ARK Scan Weekly Report
This week, support for the new BLS public key registration transaction type was implemented in Core v3. This allows existing delegates to register their BLS keys ahead of the Mainsail migration, ensuring their keys are included in the snapshot and enabling them to forge as validators on the Mainsail network at launch. ARK Scan has been updated to recognize and display this new transaction type. Next week, we will continue testing and begin implementing additional features as required for Mainsail.
ARK Vault Weekly Report
This week, we focused on further improving the Side Panel by simplifying its architecture and addressing various fixes:
* Decoupled the Wallet from the Coin abstraction to simplify the architecture. * Fixed issues with transaction filters based on wallet selection. * Cleaned up unused files from the codebase.
Next week, we’ll continue enhancing test coverage and refining the Side Panel.
The updates from the ARK Scan, ARK Vault, and Mainsail teams demonstrate ARK's ongoing commitment to enhancing the user experience and expanding the functionality of its products. Further achievements are expected in the week ahead.
