An Ark delegate is responsible for securing a node on the Ark Public Network blockchain. Holders of the ARK token vote for delegates that operate a node. The top 51 vote earners are elected to validate and insert new blocks into the ledger and forge new ARK tokens as a reward.

Overview
Our number one priority is to operate high quality, reliable and secure nodes on the Ark blockchain. We have been active Ark community developers for several years prior to operating as a delegate. We will be diligent in continuing project development and promotion of the bridgechain ecosystem. In addition to rewarding our voters with a share of the forged tokens we will use the rewards to fund development of several of our own projects and supporting other community projects.
Thank you to all of our current voters and we look forward to the support of future voters.
