What is Quant (QNT) coin?

Quant is a UK-based enterprise blockchain company founded in 2015 by Gilbert Verdian and Dr. Paolo Tasca. Its core product, Overledger, is a blockchain-agnostic API gateway that connects public blockchains, permissioned DLTs and traditional financial systems without modifying the underlying protocols. QNT is the ERC-20 token that grants access to Overledger services. Quant targets regulated institutions across banking, capital markets, healthcare and government. DropsTab classifies QNT under the Protocol category.

How does the Overledger API work?

Overledger operates as a blockchain operating system for multi-chain connectivity. Developers build multi-chain applications (mDApps) that reach several networks through a single API integration, and enterprises connect via API rather than running their own chain. Product lines beyond Overledger include Quant Flow, Quant Connect and ISO 20022 interoperability services. The design leaves each connected protocol unmodified.

What is the QNT token used for?

QNT grants access to Overledger services. Annual enterprise licenses and network and transaction fees are paid in QNT. Documentation references license tiers sized in QNT — for example, 250 QNT per annual license tier. Enterprise clients can use Overledger APIs without touching the token directly, so token demand is decoupled from enterprise adoption.

How large is the QNT max supply?

QNT has a fixed maximum supply of 14,881,364 tokens, equal to its total supply per DropsTab data. The full amount was minted at creation. The supply is therefore non-inflationary — no protocol emission creates new QNT. QNT is an ERC-20 token with 18 decimals at a single canonical contract on Ethereum, verifiable on Etherscan.

Does QNT have a token unlock schedule?

No public vesting schedule exists for QNT. No scheduled cliff unlocks or team and investor unlock calendars are tracked in any authoritative source. The token generation events were the 2018 Pre-TGE and Public Sale rounds. Sell-pressure risk from scheduled vesting is therefore absent — any residual supply overhang would come from treasury or team movements, which are not publicly scheduled.

Who backed Quant Network and how much did it raise?

Per DropsTab funding data, Quant Network raised $26M across two 2018 token sales. The Pre TGE round on 19 March 2018 raised $15M at $1.00 per token, and the Public Sale on 2 April 2018 raised $11M at roughly $1.11 per token. Together, the two rounds sold about 54.8% of total supply. The December 2017 Pre-Sale amount is not publicly disclosed.

What does Quant's fundraising signal about project maturity?

A 2020 Venture Round added Alpha Sigma Capital and Alchemmy as investors — no lead investor is recorded, and no public VC stake exceeds 20% of supply. Quant's strongest institutional credentials are central-bank experiments: Quant CEO Gilbert Verdian chaired the steering group of Project Rosalind, a BIS Innovation Hub and Bank of England retail CBDC payments API testbed whose final report was published on 16 June 2023. Rosalind was exploratory — it does not imply Bank of England adoption of Quant technology. Quant is a Digital Pound Foundation member.

Where can you buy Quant (QNT)?

QNT trading is CEX-led: per DropsTab data, 40+ spot venues list QNT, including Binance, Coinbase, Kraken and Bitstamp by Robinhood. Fiat rails cover USD and EUR pairs, with additional TRY, IDR and INR markets on regional exchanges. Decentralized liquidity is secondary — three tracked Uniswap pairs (QNT/WETH and QNT/USDT) on Ethereum. One derivatives market exists, the Bybit QNTUSDT perpetual. Primary depth sits on top-tier centralized exchanges.

Is QNT a coin or a token?

QNT is a token, not a coin. It is an ERC-20 token deployed on Ethereum, meaning it runs on another chain's infrastructure rather than powering its own blockchain. DropsTab classifies Quant under the Protocol category. The same canonical contract address is mirrored on Pulsechain, and a bridge-wrapped variant exists on Energi.

What are the main risks of holding QNT?

Emission and unlock risk are low — supply is hard-capped at 14,881,364 tokens with no scheduled vesting unlocks. The larger structural risk is demand decoupling: regulated institutions can pay for Overledger access through enterprise licensing without buying QNT, so enterprise adoption does not automatically translate into token demand. Price predictions for QNT are speculative and fall outside verified data.
