MarketSquare is just one of the products ARK intends to roll out as the year progresses. Although it has only gone through three rounds of closed alpha testing, the product will be open to all users by Q4 2020 as it has gotten very positive responses from alpha testers so far. several improvements have been made based on these responses and the team is confident that the finished product will be impressive for users. Key features of MarketSpace include social and developer-focused features as well as Social messaging and a developer bounty system.
