Hello Everyone! I am writing this article to showcase three altcoins that have a HUGE potential for 2020, based on fundamental analysis and potential price action.

All of the three altcoins have a marketcap below 100M$ and are presented from the Biggest to the Smallest MC.

Matic Network is a blockchain application platform that provides developers with the ability to deploy applications with faster and cheaper transactions while still maintaining a high level of security, by utilizing a novel combination of hybrid Proof-of-Stake and Plasma-enabled sidechains. Matic Network is one of the top tier projects in crypto in terms of scope since it the usecases are endless. From Payment network to decentralized exchanges, the Matic Network platfom caters to all type of blockchain related problems and issues.

The best IEO to date on Binance is backed by some serious investors in the space (Coinbase Ventures) and has the ultimate objective of helping mass adoption by making useful and easier to deploy DAPPS. At the writing of this article their are already more than 40 DAPPS being integrated on Matic with more to come in the coming months! Appart from a couple of older projects Matic is one if the few exciting new projects to actually deliver on their promises to the community by doing regular AMA’s and by listing on 20+ exchanges.
Matic is one of the strongest altcoins out there and with such a reduced Marketcap and amazing FA, it can be considered a “safe” investment in the crypto sphere.

Quant Network is a UK company , based in London, which developed the world’s first blockchain operating system known as Overledger, a system which inter-connects blockchains and existing networks, facilitating the creation of internet scale multi-chain applications. Their project has a token, QNT which is integral to it’s Overledger platform and the demand for which will increase as usage through the system increases.

Quant is already one of the most successful companies in the cryptospace with a business development pipeline of 300 clients consisting of financial institutions, central banks, government health services and other enterprise level organisations. One of this clients is an ongoing project with European ICT giant, SIA which is probably the largest most significant finance related partnership ever landed by a cryptocurrency project.

In 2020, there are a lot of milestones for Quant Network to achieve. According to the roadmap, Overledger will pass from the Testnet to the Mainet version. This means that all the clients will have to start paying for the licenses to use Overledger (OVN) with fiat currencies that later are converted to QNT and locked up for the length of the license period. Also getaways (similar to master nodes) will be launched where you can stake QNT to help process transactions through the network. All of this will be demonstrated on the Overledger dashboard. There are also hints about a SIA update, exchanges listings and of course new institutional clients announcements.

Kardiachain (KAI) is the number one blockchain solution provider startup in Vietnam. Their platform focuses on interoperability and providing hybrid blockchain solutions/infrastructure for enterprises and governments in Vietnam and other countries in South & East Asia.
The world first Dual Node technology allows cross-chain communications between any public and/or private blockchain regardless of protocol. This provides easy-to-adopt solutions for institutional clients.

KAI are the native tokens in the KardiaChain ecosystem. KAI is used in staking, paying transaction fees, deploying smart contracts, paying for cross-chain operations, and all products/services on KardiaChain.
It’s IEO was quite recent , held on Gate.IO on the 9th April 2020 , and was very highly anticipated by those following the project, with it being oversubscribed 19x. According to a recent AMA the KadiaChain ecosystem is growing rapidly to become one the most used and widespreads ecosystems in the space: “we are looking at 1 million KAI holders by the end of 2020.”

Some of the partnerships that KardiaChain has amassed so far are: One of the largest telecoms providers in Vietnam , developing and providing a mobile payment gateway to serve Vietnam’s 100 million population. Geleximco, a conglomerate whose assets worth over $2.2bn and VTVCab, the Vietnamese National TV network to successfully launch their ON Sports mobile app.

With a Marketcap of 3.5M KAI is one of the only, if not the only, projects to have full backing from a national government in the world. This means they dont have to struggle, like other projects, for contacts and deals in order to achieve true adoption, since their government partners will easily provide them with opportunities to apply their revolutionary technology.

Potential ROI

• Matic (MATIC) has a bright future ahead. With the Mainnet lauch ongoing and the staking ready to deploy the demand for the token is set to reach new highs! A Coinbase listing after the Mainet lauch is also almost a certainty with rumours about it circulating for months. With a current market cap of 70M there’s no reason why this mammoth project shouldnt be at 1B marketcap in the near future!
• Quant (QNT) with only 14M total supply and gateways (master nodes) around the corner QNT can certainly have a great 2020. The demand for a token that gets locked up the more it gets adopted is a sure winner. According to the CEO some major announcements are due to Q2, including exchanges and more clients such as financial institutions, banks and even governments). With such strong fundamentals behind the project a DASH type of run (from double digits to 1000$) it’s a possibility in the future!
• Kaichain (KAI) is one of those projects that seems too good to be true. With a current market cap of 3.5M the possibilities for growth are fenomenal with a 30x in the near future looking more of a reality than possibility. Comparing to the other 2 projects here mentioned Kaichain still has a very small community and awareness in the crypto space. The awareness it’s so small that the project is not even listed on IDEX, but that seems about to change with more listings on top tier exchanges and new government contracts on the pipeline for the next coming months.

Thank you so much for reading this article and as always DYOR!

Hello and welcome to this short tutorial on Quant Network for Beginners. If you have any questions or comments, please leave them in the comments section. In case you want to learn more about Quant, consider taking a deep dive into the links present at the end of this article.

What is Quant Network?

Quant Network is a UK company, based in London, which developed the world’s first blockchain operating system known as Overledger. This system inter-connects blockchains and existing networks, facilitating the creation of internet-scale multi-chain applications.

But “why do we need to connect blockchains?” you may ask. Well, imagine a world where your local bank has adopted the Ethereum Blockchain to run all their transactions and make them faster and cheaper. However, your other bank has adopted a different blockchain for internal transactions. By utilizing different blockchains, it means that they cant “talk” with each other and this is where Quant’s proprietary technology comes in. The ability to easily connect blockchains is what makes Overledger OS a game-changer. This operating system gives the bank or financial institution the ability to connect to multiple blockchains and use them as they wish.
But “why can’t the banks just copy the technology or develop it in the house?”, for a simple reason: Overledger technology is Patented what makes it literally bulletproof in the financial world. Plus, why waste time and resources in developing an alternative if the solution is already developed and tested by many enterprises and banks.

It's official: International patent application number PCT/EP2018/082832 is published. We spent all of 2017 with @PaoloTasca and @uclcbt to get to this milestone. Big thank you!! 🙏 #Overledger #Blockchain

MAPPS

The ability to connect multiple blockchains in a fast and easy way creates the ability to the development of a new type of applications (MAPP). This new version of applications like Facebook, YouTube, and others we normally use on our mobile phones and computers is a game-changer for the industry. A MAPP built on Overledger has the ability to connect to dozens of blockchains at the same time. This gives the developers the ability to use, for example, the EOS blockchain for speed and the Ethereum blockchain for security for the MAPP they are building. The potential here is limitless since Overledger provides developers not the ability to decentralize the app in on blockchain but the ability to decentralize the apps in multiples blockchains creating the most decentralized applications ever.

This is why more than 300 MAPPS are being built and tested by enterprise and community developers.

TEAM

Quant currently has offices in the UK, Switzerland, Australia, Armenia (Research Lab) and soon to be opening one in New York to meet client demand.
The company is founded and led by Gilbert Verdian , a technologist with over 20 years of industry experience working in the enterprise, finance, government, and financial entities such as HSBC and Mastercard, giving the project the necessary connections within business and finance to succeed. The team is currently doubling in size so you can find the other team members on Linkedin.
Plus, In 2019, Guy Dietrich, Managing Director of Rockefeller Capital (yes, that Rockefeller) joined the board of Quant Network, supporting the company’s ongoing expansion in the US.

Great meeting today at the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Discussing supervision, compliance and how to support upcoming regulation. #RegTech #FATF #5AMLD #blockchain $QNT @quant_network

Token Utility

The QNT token is regulated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) as a utility token, which is intended to provide digital access to an application or service. Access to the Overledger Operating System is only possible through the use of QNT and the platform is useless without it. Since QNT is integral to its Overledger platform, the demand will increase as usage through the system increases.
Quant Network implemented a Treasury mechanism that buys the necessary QNT tokens from the open market (exchanges) and locks them up in order for the clients to use Overledger.

The token (QNT):

Current Price: $5 / Market Cap: $60,660,860 / Circulating Supply: 12,072,738 QNT / Total supply: 14,612,493 QNT

Quant Network implemented a Treasury mechanism that buys the necessary QNT tokens from the open market (exchanges) and locks them up in order for the clients to use Overledger. This feature allied with the low total supply of QNT may result in a increase in the utility token price as time progresses and more clients and institutions buy licenses to use Overledger.

Apart of the treasury fees there are also others fees that will impact the demand for the token like platform fees and consumption fees.

All the many purposes of the utility token can be found here:

Partners and Adoption

This is what mass adoption looks like!
Quant Network currently has a business development pipeline of 300 clients consisting of financial institutions, central banks, government health services, and other enterprise-level organizations and established partnerships with many large and leading organizations within technology.
Accustomed to fake or misleading information, many crypto community investors disregard many of the Quant announcements as being “too good to be true.” You can find all the confirmed partnerships below:

https://www.publish0x.com/wordstock/list-of-quant-network-qnt-partnerships-2020-xnmjyr

As well as yet to be disclosed financial institutions, they have an ongoing project with European ICT giant, SIA which is probably the largest most significant finance related partnership ever landed by a cryptocurrency project. Integrating Overledger and QNT into the core of global financial infrastructure (more here). What most crypto investors don’t comprehend is that if The Human Body was the European Banking System, SIA would be the veins that carry the blood between all the organs. SIA has around 580 banks in their network and processes inter banking transactions between all of them.

EXCHANGES

Currently, the only reputable exchanges where you can find QNT are IDEX, Bittrex Global, Bithumb and CoinMetro. For a more easy experience the recommended exchange will always be Bittrex since it’s the oldest and never been hacked before. Of course you might consider storing your QNT tokens out of a exchange after you acquire them.

According to a AMA that the CEO did on Telegram, some of Quant’s institutional partners don’t feel comfortable with Quant paying to get the utility token listed on non regulated exchanges. Therefore only a few alternatives remain like for example: Kraken, Bitstamp or Coinbase. According to a publication made on Quant Network reddit by the CEO, the team is pursuing a listing on these exchanges and also traditional exchanges that will start to accept crypto assets for their institutional clients this year. A tier 1 exchange is essential for the growth of the Overledger ecosystem since clients will have to start paying fees to access it by the end of Q2 2020.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

In Q2 2020, there are a lot of milestones for Quant Network to achieve. According to the roadmap, Overledger will pass from the Testnet to the Main net version. This means that all the clients will have to start paying for the licenses to use Overledger (OVN) with fiat currencies that later are converted to QNT and locked up for the length of the license period. Also gateways (similar to master nodes) will be launched where you can stake QNT to help process transactions through the network. All of this will be demonstrated on the Overledger dashboard. There are also hints about a SIA update, exchanges listings and of course new institutional clients announcements.

POTENTIAL ROI

As of today, April of 2020, Quant Network utility token, QNT, has a valuation of around 5$ and a market cap of 60M$ according to Coinmarketcap with All Time High at around 14$ (when the SIA partnership was announced). According to a Forbes article QUANT did 10M in revenue last year and if everything goes according to plan they will surpass that value this year. In the coming months the business developments like getaways, treasury and dashboard that Quant has in the pipeline can bring the value of the utility token to new highs as partnerships, exchanges and other other clients are also announced. Considering the global state of adoption of blockchain technology and crypto in general we can attest that Quant Network is on the forefront of this space and is prime to be one of the companies that gets more adoption and recognition outside of the cryptocurrency niche world.

HOW TO BUY QUANT (QNT)?

First you need to create an account in a reputable exchange such as Coinbase or Bitpanda in order to buy some bitcoin (BTC) or ethereum (ETH) with fiat currencies (USD,EUR).

After creating your account and validating it you need to make a deposit or transfer from your bank to the exchange you chose (Bitpanda or Coinbase). After the fiat currency is confirmed in the exchange account you can now buy ethereum or bitcoin easily by trading it. Currently, Quant Network token (QNT) is not available to purchase on Coinbase or Bitpanda yet, so you will have to transfer the bitcoin or ethereum you bought to the other exchanges mentioned above (IDEX or Bittrex).

If you opt to buy ETH you must transfer it to IDEX to buy QNT. If you buy BTC you must transfer it to BITTREX to buy QNT. Bare in mind that you need a MEW (myetherwallet) in order to buy from IDEX. For a even more straight forward approach you can try using http://Get.QNT.exchange. It’s a more direct way to buy QNT but bare in mind that your buy price might be a little bit over the market current price.

After acquiring your QNT tokens please make sure you store them in somewhere safe like for example in cold storage (trezor or ledger) so you never have to worry about being hacked.

Thank you for reading this short summary of Quant Network and let me know what you think in the comments.

Hello everyone!

Today I am a sharing a research piece I’ve been working on regarding the Project Quant Network and QNT, it’s ERC-20 utility token.

What is Quant Network?

Quant Network is a UK company , based in London, which developed the world’s first blockchain operating system known as Overledger, a system which inter-connects blockchains and existing networks, facilitating the creation of internet scale multi-chain applications. Their project has a token, QNT which is integral to it’s Overledger platform and the demand for which will increase as usage through the system increases.

Team and Advisors

The company is founded and led by Gilbert Verdian , a technologist with over 20 years of industry experience working in enterprise, finance, government and financial entities such as HSBC and Mastercard, giving the project the necessary connections within business and finance to suceed. Other team members can be found on Likedin.

Plus, In 2019, Guy Dietrich, Managing Director of Rockefeller Capital (yes, that Rockefeller) joined the board of Quant Network, supporting the company’s ongoing expansion in the US.

Partnerships and Enterprise Adoption

This point is very interesting since Quant has a business development pipeline of 300 clients consisting of financial institutions, central banks, government health services and other enterprise level organisations, and established partnerships with many large and leading organisations within technology.

As well as yet to be disclosed financial institutions, they have an ongoing project with European ICT giant, SIA which is probably the largest most significant finance related partnership ever landed by a cryptocurrency project. Integrating Overledger and QNT into the core of global financial infrastructure (more here). What most crypto investors don’t comprehend is that if The Human Body was the European Banking System, SIA would be the veins that carry the blood between all the organs. SIA has around 580 banks in their network and processes inter banking transactions between all of them.

GITHUB

This is where things get a little bit complicated. There´s not much info regarding Overledger (quant’s interoperability solution) in github with only a few entrances being published as the SDK code. However, being that, Quant is a company that exists and operates primarily within the enterprise space where Overledger acts as a Patended solution it’s understandable that the code wont ever be purely open source since it’s the heart and soul of the company. According to the CEO there are 500 non-public entrances on github but they remain private.

EXCHANGES

Another negative point in QNT inventory is the lack of exchanges. Currently, the only reputable exchanges where you can find QNT are IDEX, Bittrex Global and Bithumb. A tier 1 exchange was announced last year but it never came to life. According to a AMA that the CEO did on Telegram, some of Quant´s institutional partners don’t feel comfortable with Quant paying to get the utility token listed on non regulated exchanges. Therefore only a few alternatives remain like for example: Kraken, Bitstamp or Coinbase. According to a publication made on Quant Network reddit the team is pursuing a listing on these exchanges and also traditional exchanges that will start to accept crypto assets for their institutional clients this year.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

In Q2 2020, there are a lot of milestones for Quant Network to achieve. Acording to the roadmap, Overledger will pass from the Testnet to the Mainet version. This means that all the clients will have to start paying for the licenses to use Overledger (OVN) with fiat currencies that later are converted to QNT and locked up for the lenght of the license period. Also getways (similar to master nodes) will be launched where you can stake QNT to help process transactions through the network. All of this will be demonstrated on the Overledger dashboard. There are also hints about a SIA update, exchanges listings and of course new institutional clients announcements.

POTENTIAL ROI

As of today, Quant Network utility token, QNT, has a valuation of around 3.7$ and a market cap of 45M$ according to Coinmarketcap with All Time High at around 14$ (when the SIA partnership was announced). According to a Forbes article QUANT did 10M in revenue last year and if everything goes according to plan they will surpass that value this year. Even thought there are some munor issues with Quant Network like lack of Github commitments and high liquidity exchanges the pros seem to surpass the cons in regards to the project. In the coming months the business developments like getaways, treasury and dashboard that Quant has in the pipeline can bring the value of the utility token to new highs as partnerships, exchanges and other other clients are also announced.

As always, crypto is a volatile market and make sure you DYOR regarding any recommendations you read online.
