It's the high effort ones like Ark siphoning funding and attention that are really malicious.
comparing this link with ark seems a bit excessive... at least to me. Maybe I still have no enoughs grasp of the technicalities behind ark to evaluate accordingly. How and why do you see it as malicious? is just the way they do it, or is the idea and technology itself?

comparing this link with ark
They're the same premise, that Lightning is insufficient
But, Lightning's limitations are inherited properties of Bitcoin, and therefore cannot be "solved" without trust
Ark uses false narratives to position itself as having solved the limitations of lightning when really it's just trust smuggling
They invented terms like pre-confirmed transactions and VTXOs to make it sound like a technical solution. They lie about scaling to poors that can't afford chain security, online-ess etc.
OP here is just retarded, but Ark is malicious as evidenced by their deceptive marketing. That's the only distinction.
