Is there an ELI5 for Ark? I'm having trouble breaking down why I should be optimistic for the future of this. Want to learn more.
It's not that simple. If you want to learn about ARK and profit from investing in it, go back to the OP and read. Go to their website and read. Some things can't be explained in 10 words or less...
In just a few words... look at the ICO value vs today's value. The reason is simple. The ARK team has been delivering on promises and continues to do it.

Re: 🔹🅰RK🔹 [PRE-ANN][ARK] Putting the Currency back into Crypto
Whole ETH is joke they can not make one good fork they need 2, maybe they plan more of them. At least if ICONOMI don't deliver till December escrow will return back money.

If the funds arent released by the end of Q4 2016, meaning that we didnt deliver our service, funds will be immediately returned to all the participants.
the first Ethereum fork spinned off Ethereum Classic. Will this 2nd fork spin off another coin?
which exchanges will ICONOMI be listed? any news?
I don't think they mentioned any exchange yet. If they did, I'd like to know.

8 seconds blocktime... This will be awesome!! I like it when crypto are pushing the limits!
It should be on multiple exchanges at launch. Launch is planned around the end of April or beginning of May. We should get the launch date at some point soon so stay tuned.
"Javascript numbers are....not the greatest or most reliable. Especially when we are dealing with a crypto-currency, you really want your numbers to be on point. Basically JS uses floating point which means some things get approximated and digits get lost in certain cases. Here's some further reading: Be careful with big numbers & Floating point appoximation. So, the fact that everything in Lisk (including Lisk itself) is in Javascript, it means there are potentially big number problems (both in terms of big numbers and big problems)."
I agree it is a downside however I'm not sure it is a real concerns. There are many workarounds to this issue and most javascript developpers that need big numbers know how to deal with it.
