Quant (QNT) is going steep - what's behind it?



While the charts on the entire crypto market were rather mixed on Wednesday, the quant token is now literally going through the roof. At the time of writing, there has been an increase of more than 20 percent in the last 24 hours alone.


turbulent year

The first half of 2021 was marked by great success for Quant. From around eleven dollars in January 2021, it went to over 400 US dollars within half a year. In addition to the fundamentally bullish mood on the overall market, the reason for the strong price development was above all the listing on Coinbase and Binance . Nevertheless, Quant could not escape the selling pressure in the second half of 2021. Since September 2021, the price has only known the way down and at times was more than 60 percent below its all-time high.


Wormhole hack as a possible course driver?

The recent increase may come as a surprise to many, as Quant Network (QNT) - apart from a newer version of Overledger on January 24th - has not reported any special news. The strong rise is therefore likely to be mainly technical in nature after the price fell to a new all-time low in January 2022 and then formed a strong bottom for several weeks. The bulls' renewed onslaught was also accompanied by strong volumes in trading exchanges, underscoring the strength of the current move. In addition, the hack of the Token Bridge Wormhole could also be seen as a possible reason for the rapid price increase at Quant. worm holeannounced on Twitter yesterday, February 2nd , that it was investigating a potential exploit. Shortly thereafter, it was confirmed that 120,000 WETH (Wrapped Ether) had been stolen. Since Quant Network is also working on multi-chain solutions, the second largest DeFi hack of all time could therefore play QNT as a competitor in the cards.


What does Quant do?

The self-imposed goal of Quant Network (QNT) sounds ambitious. They want to establish themselves as a kind of basic infrastructure in the interoperability of blockchain platforms. The underlying technology used by QNT is called the Overleder DLT Gateway. The Quant token is the proprietary Ethereum token on which Quant Network's enterprise software solutions operate. The special feature: Quant Network enables the creation of so-called multi-chain apps (mApps). These work in a similar way to the already known dApps, but have the special feature that they enable the user to create an interaction between the different blockchains. Data can thus be processed, verified and stored on multiple chains. In short: mApps are operated on several blockchains.



With a market capitalization of around 1.4 billion US dollars, Quant is currently one of the 100 largest crypto projects worldwide.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
