1/ MEGA-THREAD: WHY YOU SHOULD NO LONGER IGNORE QUANT NETWORK'S OVERLEDGER ($QNT)

As Quant is getting some attention, I would like to remind everyone how explosive of a project this is.

Please like and retweet to spread the knowledge!

2/ Let's start with the team. Quant's team is not your typical "crypto-team". They are industry experts and have experience in the highest levels of government and enterprises.

Gilbert Verdian ( @gverdian) is the CEO of Quant Network. While his past include companies such as ...

3/ Vocalink (Mastercard), HSBC, PWC, HSBC and EY, the most fascinating is his government experience. He has had roles at UK Government (HM Treasury and Bank of England) and Federal Reserve (US)

Gilbert was in charge of keeping the entire payment industry in the UK safe. Yes ...

4/ The ENTIRE UK's payment industry, which is responible for £6 trillion per year and is deemed critical national infrastructure. Do you think enterprises and government have their ears open when Gilbert is introducing Overledger to them? I think so!

5/ This experience is obviously great, but what does it mean for Overledger ($QNT) you may ask? Well, @quamfortable explains it best in this thread

Standards are key for enterprise adoption and Gilbert is literally creating the interoperability standards

6/ I won't cover the rest of the team, but this is a highly professional team with great potential. There's been some FUD regarding team members leaving; this is natural for a start-up. Team members leave after doing what they were employed to do, and new people join.

7/ In addition, it's worth pointing out that Guy Dietrich, Managing Director of Rockefeller Capital (manage $18.6 billion in assets), is part of the board of directors at Quant Network.

Yes, the Rockefellers. Still think Quant is your typical "crypto"?

8/ PARTNERSHIPS

As stated earlier, Quant is not your typical crypto. They do not hype partnerships, and crypto community (Twitter, Telegram etc.) is not their focus. Their focus is enterprise adoption, and they're continuously working behind the scenes to interconnect the world.

9/ This is some of the announced partners, altough 300+ more are testing Overledger and are under NDA. These partnership takes a lot of time to progress and most are not official yet, or will never be. However, $QNT is needed for all usecases with Overledger.

10/ I'd like to point out SIA, which is arguably the biggest partnership to date in crypto.

Yes, you have heard that before, but let's dig in ...

What is SIA? They are basically Europe's SWIFT. They are the largest Financial Network Provider in Europe. https://www.sia.eu/en/media-events/news-press-releases/sia-partners-with-quant-network-to-explore-innovative-solutions-in-blockchain-interoperability-for-banks-and-financial

11/ They have the leading European payment infrastructure, and are trusted by thousand of clients, including Central Banks.

SIA are integrating the SIAchain infrastructure INTO the blockchain operating system Overledger. SIAchain is massive, and are doing settlements for

12/ SIA’s clients, including 580 banks. Altough no update has been given in about a year, this is totally normal in the enterprise world. Heavy due diligence were done by SIA before announcing this partnership, and Gilbert has stated multiple times the work is still on-going.

13/ Given Gilbert's past experience, I trust him when he says that. An official update will come in due course, but no date has been set.

Oh, and btw, Oracle is another client which is introducing Overledger to their clients. https://twitter.com/OracleStartup/status/1162318453258227712

14/ Gilbert is literally speaking at the ECB (European Central Bank) ...

https://twitter.com/gverdian/status/1148569047891632128

and have visits to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) with Guy Dietrich.

It does not become more powerful than this.

15/ Some people criticize Quant for not being decentralized.

You don't get mass adoption by being completely decentralized. Enterprises and governments need someone that is responsible if something goes wrong.

With that being said, Overledger is becoming HYPER-DECENTRALIZED

16/ in this quarter (Q2, within 30th June) with the release of the Overledger Network. This introduces gateways with a form of "staking" of $QNT.

Gilbert has described this as the Ecosystem of Ecosystems and marks a new era of large scale interconnectivity.

17/ This release is massive, and could happen any day.

Quant has also listened to the community regarding exposure, and they have hired a community manager which will introduce Overledger to the crypto community as they now can build MAPPS on Overledger and host gateways.

18/ Quant's tech is also patented, and altough there will be competitors in the interoperability space, NO ONE will solve interoperability the exact same way as Quant did.

Overledger is millions of lines of code and due to IP reasons, it's NOT on GitHub https://twitter.com/gverdian/status/1144225400987557890

19/ Things have taken longer time to unfold than most anticipated, however, $QNT is a volcano ready to explode any second.

@DavidW___ wrote a great article in 2019 about Quant, please read. https://medium.com/@davW/the-reasons-why-quant-network-qnt-will-rise-to-the-top-of-the-crypto-sphere-in-the-coming-months-a5e522f49d98

20/ EXCHANGES

This is a regular question. "Why isn't Quant on a good exchange?"

Short answer; they didn't need one and instead focused on building a technology that transforms the financial industry.

They now need a Tier 1 exchange for clients, and have laid out a strategy

21/ for this on Reddit. Please read this:

https://www.reddit.com/r/QuantNetwork/comments/eo3wi7/quant_exchange_strategy_2020/

They're aiming for @coinbase, @krakenfx or @Bitstamp. Due to their clients demands, they could not list on unregulated exchanges (of which there are many!).

Breathe out, exchanges are coming. The team got this.

22/ Furthermore, Quant is acknowledged by Gartner as a Cool Vendor in Blockchain technology. Chainlink (2018) and Brave/BAT (2017) are the only other winners in the cryptoworld.

Gartner is huge in the enterprise world and introduced many clients to Quant.

23/ I could go on, and on, and on, and on.

So many topics have not yet been covered, including PayUK (Quant is a Guarantor!), AUCloud, UKcloud, Crowdz, SIMBA chain, AX Trading (SEC approved ATS in the US), MOBI and HCL. Plus MANY more.

24/ The $QNT token is rare. There will only exist 14.6m tokens, and there's no inflation. All quant revenue is captured by the token, as an equivalent amount of QNT tokens are purchased and locked up by the treasury.

The $DASH run in 2017 will look small compared to whats coming

25/ As a final note, DYOR. All sources for the information above can be provided in a DM, or you can join the Quant Telegram community and ask some of the wonderful moderators there.

Good luck - don't sleep on $QNT. It will be the biggest regret of your life!
