At some point, this test tube button will be a place to add other Ark servers. Once it's all mature, that option will become part of the main flow.

2026-07-16 14:56:43 CEST

Arké defaults to mainnet these days, but creating a signet wallet is simple. Tap the test tubes on the cover screen. The background video switches to show the fancy lab guy. And creating a wallet will get you a signet one. The built-in signet faucet gets you some test sats right away. Everything else is pretty much the same as mainnet.

Adding and editing tags will be a bit nicer in the next Arké release. The old version was essentially AI slop. https://blossom.primal.net/44900757f4a92654dff5c0f86613b3b8153e51f90eb770f96e2c585585ae0a98.jpg

It is a moral responsibility.

Pretty sure social media bans wouldn't have come up if social media companies had taken more responsibility in protecting minors. Simple stuff like not letting kids be contacted by random adults, muting push notifications at night or during school hours, private accounts by default, removing engagement-maximizing mechanics, etc. When parents and teachers constantly fight against this stuff at home and in school, of course there's a strong counter-reaction at some point. Let's not let those companies off the hook easily.

In tougher times it’s better to rally together than to argue. Onward and upward.

2026-05-22 10:45:39 CEST

Just pushed a new version of Arké to TestFlight. This one is about refinement:
- More precise fee calculation, which is especially useful when trying to send the full savings (onchain) balance
- Different intro video segments for signet and mainnet
- A new cover video that is less 80's glam
- Improved wallet creation performance and error handling
- Unilateral exit progress display tweaks
- Wallet import with file improvements
Still ~150 to-dos on my list, but it is coming together.

New Arké version is up on TestFlight, with a roughly estimated 1,000,000,000 improvements to the Send flow.
Goal is that you can throw all your bitcoin/ark addresses, lightning invoices/offers/addresses, BIP-21s and BIP-353 in all kinds of combinations at it, and it will try to make sense of it all and present whatever comes out on the other end in a simple way. Quite intricate. It's a good iteration, with some more to come.
Definitely feels like the most intricate part of the app.

Arké looks, feels, and works differently than other wallets. Wouldn't be much of a contribution to the ecosystem if it was like all the other ones. Some experiments will work and some will fail. But if we want more people to use this stuff, we need to try things.

First Arké push notification ever! The text obviously needs work, but very cool that it works now (this was an intimidating piece of code for me to work on). The bark mailbox system makes this very convenient to implement (those Second people seem to know what they are doing).
https://blossom.primal.net/ac42ed43e1f8973618c768dc03570a89e35522f1661d06fe896bf3e7f86eaae0.jpg
Privacy-wise, this requires a relay to connect the app, Ark server and Apple push notification servers. The relay can connect your device ID, mailbox ID, and incoming Ark payment VTXOs. Don't like it, don't turn on notifications. I'll have to see how I can only store the least amount of data possible, since I really don't care to know what people do. The only interesting thing to know maybe would be a simple counter that tracks how many payments were made. That would at least give some broad insight into activity.

From yesterdays Plan B Masterclass, one of the key ideas about user experience. At the start, no-one knows about your product. Then they hear about it and an initial idea forms. Maybe they get interested and learn a little more. If it sounds good, they give it a try, etc.
You can imagine a person at each of these steps. Who are they, what do they know at this point, and what is the most useful information for them?
You an apply this at a product level or a feature level, and for different types of users, and is a really useful mental framework.

"The fractures fell neatly along disciplines: engineers using AI to wish away designers, designers wishing away engineers, product managers wishing away both. In this climate, AI becomes frenemy identification technology, another way to avoid working together. It’s always easier to grab a tool and bypass the mess of coordination, even if that means doing more and doing it alone. AI lowers the barrier to working outside your lane, and sure, that could mean more overlap between disciplines, but right now, we’re mostly boxing each other out or stepping on one another’s toes."

I am no longer an AI-em-dash (—) apologist. If I create a text with AI, I leave them in. Whether the text is worth reading is not a matter of em-dash use, it's a matter of the text being interesting and relevant.

"Thinking of AI as an instrument recenters the focus on practice. Instruments require a performance that relies on technique—the horn makes the sound, but how and what you blow into it matters; the drum machine keeps time and plays the samples, but what you sample and how you swing on top of it becomes your signature.
In other words, instruments can surprise you with what they offer, but they are not automatic. In the end, they require a touch. You use a tool, but you play an instrument. It’s a more expansive way of doing, and the doing of it all is important, because that’s where you develop the instincts for excellence. There is no purpose to better machines if they do not also produce better humans."

The latest recovery phrase UI for Arké. You scratch off the surface to reveal the words. And there's a PDF to print and copy it onto that matches the two-column layout on the screen. Fold it twice, and put it in an envelope and tuck it away somewhere safe. Many won't print, but it might still be informative.

2026-02-25 16:58:22 CET

Polishing a wallet UI is a ton of work. Was fixing a lot of details in the Arké send flow today around resolving BIP-353 addresses and showing the resolved address appropriately. With various input methods like manual, paste, scan, BIP-21 click, and contacts, it gets quite intricate quickly. And then add all the different address types on top of that. All just so users don't have to care and it "just works".

2026-02-24 14:37:13 CET

One of the interesting things about Ark (Second implementation) payments is that when you receive, you cannot see who sent it to you. There's no address in the data. Great for privacy, but can also be a bit confusing for users.

Arké is self-custodial. The app relies on iCloud and Keychain, which iOS users already trust. An Esplora server helps with bitcoin network data, and an Ark server helps with payments. So far there's no need for any other server infrastructure and I am looking to keep it that way if possible. https://arke.cash/

When you hide your balance in Arké, you see a nice scenic view of a Tuscan landscape instead. I find it feels quite nice. A masked balance ("*****") still makes you think about the balance. A nice landscape is more relaxing.

Arké is coming along nicely. I like this phase where you do a ton of small iteration and tweaking and you can feel the overall experience becoming more polished and smooth.
And I am sure a whole bunch of my decisions will prove to be wrong in user testing. But that’s no reason not go out with opinionated UX.

Super messy Arké update, but here we go. Unilateral exit, fee summary, activity & console. Like insurance, unilateral exit is one of those things that you really never want to use, but still want to have just in case. So if the Ark server goes away, you can still recover your funds. Still need to wrangle a lot of tech into submissions and polish the UI to glory.

Different product strategies, I'd say, that should be well-considered based on your target audience.

Working through the unilateral exit in Arké. I think it can be pretty simple in the end, but there's a lot of complexity under the hood to work through. It's an essential part, as this is what lets you recover your bitcoin even if the server that facilitates your payments goes away (or turns into a diamond-covered skull, I heard that could happen).

This is an example with a rich BIP-21 URI (like what you might get from clicking a link at a checkout)). Instantly parsed and evaluated. Payment meta data is easy to see. Payment options (addresses) are matched against existing contacts, networks verified, balances checked, fees evaluated, and the best option highlighted. Just hit send and done. What do you make of that?

Latest Arké update about building a rich send experience that is simple and convenient no matter what you throw at it (known contacts, ark/bitcoin addresses, lightning invoices/offer/addresses, BIP-21, BIP-353, whatever...). A work-in-progress. What do you make of the direction?

Love it.

I recorded a hands-on 30-minute demo on how I use AI for coding for Arké (MacOS app, XCode). Curious to learn from others, if you have any tips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcxkYZTtOTM

Arké update 4, about native contacts, contact auto-assignment, a new console, and lots of little layout and convenience things. Still a major construction site, still progress. https://community.second.tech/t/arke-macos-prototype/156/9
I saw some people comment on the BIP-177 by default thing. Something I plan to get around to at some point and add options to choose from. Just not priority right now.

You are not wrong. It's total BS.

Arké now also has a consolé. Very handy for doing some manual operations during development. Took 3 chats to build this with Claude in Xcode, mostly because I knew exactly what parts needed to be touched and also set up just a little bit of the skeleton to give Claude a more narrow scope. Such a breeze to build with.

Another update on Arké. Started to add tags, contacts and lightning functionality. It's a mess, but it's progress. https://community.second.tech/t/arke-macos-prototype/156/7?u=christoph

As I've been working on the Ark prototype, I tried to feel out the economic viability of the system, which can be a make or break. One part of is that every ASP is its own separate microcosm. That seems manageable for bitcoin payments, but adds exponential complexity for the advanced stuff in Arkade (lending, swaps, etc). And it seems like a centralizing force that will put intense pressure on ASPs and also invite regulatory scrutiny.
- Stablecoins are locked into individual ASPs - how many of those will Tether/etc support?
- Will ASPs need to provide liquidity for non-bitcoin assets also?
- What if a liquidation cascade depletes ASP liquidity? What if rounds are too slow?
- Is there unilateral exit for non-bitcoin assets?
- If your app only implements the payments part, are you still exposed to the other dynamics?
Do I have an answer, or understand the complexities of all this? Certainly not. If you do, congrats, please share. Intuitively, I prefer simpler systems. How do you think about these things?

A bit more work on Arké, adding wallet creation/import/deletion/backup.

Yes, feeling out how I like it. Still a bit on the fence. What do you make of it?

In my Ark prototype, I added this super handy X-Ray screen. Let's you inspect all the underlying data that drives the wallet. Looks like I need to refresh my VTXOs...

I tinkered with an Ark wallet prototype (second.tech implementation) to get a feel for the squishy parts of the protocol. Here's a demo video and some questions that came up. Maybe some of you have answers? https://community.second.tech/t/arke-macos-prototype/156

Ah, hadn’t read the whole thread properly. Generally you create an nsec from a seed phrase and not the other way round.

You can use an extension also.

There’s a login option where you can enter your nsec.

Big thing I appreciate about AI assisted coding is that you can keep your brain focused on the architectural level. It really takes care of the small stuff.

Gets expensive super fast. Fingers crossed we see prices come down once the tools mature.

Any preference for AI icons?

(Just having fun, these will not go into the icon set)
