In today’s rapid evolution of blockchain technology, cross-chain interoperability has become a bottleneck that the industry urgently needs to break through. As the first project to propose the concept of ‘blockchain operating system,’ Quant (QNT), with its innovative Overledger technology, has not only attracted cooperation from giants such as Microsoft and Oracle, but also its token QNT price movement Also attracting the attention of investors. This article will focus on Quant’s technical core, ecological layout, andQNT priceStarting from the fluctuating factors, deeply analyze the long-term value of this project.
Quant was founded in 2018 by Gilbert Verdian, a senior technical expert from the UK, aiming directly at the ‘fragmentation’ problem in the blockchain industry. Traditional blockchains such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc., operate independently, leading to inefficient circulation of data and assets. Quant’s solution is to build a cross-chain middleware - Overledger, instead of creating another public chain. Core technologies include:
Currently, Quant has partnered with the global payment network SIA, cloud computing giant Oracle, and multiple central bank digital currency (CBDC) projects around the world, becoming the “standardized gateway” for enterprises to enter the blockchain world.
QNT is the utility token of the Quant Network, with a total supply of only 14.88 million, and has a clear deflationary mechanism. Its core functions include:
Transparent token distribution: In the initial issuance, 80% is sold to the community, with the team retaining only 10%, and with a lock-up period of 4 years, reducing the risk of concentrated selling.
According to the market data from Gate.io, as of April 30, 2025, the native token QNT of the Quant project is currently priced at $74.6, with a 24-hour decrease of 1.36%. The current circulating market value of QNT is $900 million, ranking 72nd in the overall market. The historical peak price of QNT was $394 in September 2021, and the current price has dropped by over 80% from the historical high.
Quant is not a short-sighted project chasing hotspots. Its focus on cross-chain interoperability is a necessary step for blockchain to move towards large-scale commercial use. Although the price of QNT is short-term affected by market sentiment, its technological moat and compliance layout give it a unique advantage in the wave of institutional adoption.
For investors, while paying attention to price fluctuations, it is more important to track the progress of the Quant ecosystem - after all, true value will eventually return to the technology itself.
Risk Warning: The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile, and the price of QNT tokens may experience significant declines due to changes in regulatory policies or sudden shifts in market sentiment. Investment should be cautious.
