May is behind us and with it May’s development bounty program. A huge thanks goes out to our community developers who are regularly improving our large variety of software products.

We remain sincerely grateful for those who contribute on a regular basis and are always excited to see new faces joining our program. Be sure to spread the word about our bounty program to get more developers involved in the development of the ARK Ecosystem.

Don’t know what this is about and want to get involved?

Please have a read at : https://bounty.ark.io

We have several issues that have fixed bounties assigned to them (tier 0 and tier 1). You can see the list here and choose one to tackle by requesting to be assigned to it on GitHub. In the upcoming weeks you can expect much more of the predefined tier 0 and tier 1 tasks as we refine this process, along with more Desktop Wallet related tier 0 projects. We will list them in their respective repositories along with posting them here monthly.
