A monumental Bitcoin ark, adorned with ancient, cryptic ornaments and mysterious hieroglyphics, stands tall amidst a turbulent sea, its rustic, worn wooden hull a testament to its age and wisdom. A colossal wave, foamy and chaotic, looms in the background, threatening to engulf the ark, yet it remains steadfast, a beacon of hope and resilience. The cypherpunk aesthetic is palpable, with a mesh of intricate, circuit board-like patterns and cryptic symbols etched into the ark's surface, evoking a sense of revolutionary, countercultural defiance. The sky above is a deep, foreboding grey, with hints of electric blue, as if the very fabric of reality is being rewritten by the power of decentralized currency. In the foreground, the ark's entrance, shaped like a cryptocurrency symbol, glows with a soft, pulsing light, inviting humanity to seek refuge within its mighty walls.

On this call we dove deep into the mechanics of Ark as a scaling technology, it’s differences with Lightning, the challenges to scaling and how Covenants would massively improved Bitcoin scaling technologies.

Special thanks to Tiero and Ark Labs for the hard work on scaling Bitcoin self custody to the world.
