The write-up
An Electrum (Qt) plugin that integrates the Ark protocol through barkd, the Bark wallet daemon. Users can fund barkd directly from their Electrum wallet, board on-chain funds into Ark, receive via BIP 321 (Ark address, Lightning invoice, on-chain fallback), pay Ark and Lightning destinations, and offboard back to on-chain, all from a dedicated Bark tab. Private keys never enter Electrum: they stay in barkd, and the plugin only holds an auth token. A built-in fake client allows development and demos without a daemon or funds, and a bundled web demo, Ark Quest, walks through the full journey. Signet only.
