Per the STNews methodology, the projection above is built from three separate models:

  • Technical model reads moving-average, ATR, Bollinger-band and trend-slope signals to set its ranges — it carries most weight in an orderly trend or range.
  • Statistical (Monte Carlo) model uses the 90-day distribution of daily log returns to project the 5th, 50th and 95th percentile prices at each horizon — useful as an unbiased baseline that does not assume any trend continuation.
  • Peer-relative model benchmarks the asset against similarly-sized coins in its category, asking where it would sit if it tracked the median, lower-quartile and upper-quartile peer returns — a sector-anchored sanity check.

The headline ensemble forecast weights the three models 40/30/30 (statistical/technical/peer-relative). Its confidence badge measures how closely they concur — close agreement reads as higher confidence, while divergence reads lower and signals an unreliable, hard-to-model regime.

Looking past Bitcoin alone, how closely QNT tracks the next two biggest layer-1s over 90 days indicates whether it is mostly market beta or something more independent. The daily-log-return correlations:

  • Bitcoin reference: +0.14 — a minimal positive relationship.
  • Ethereum reference: +0.10 — a minimal positive relationship.
  • Solana reference: +0.16 — a minimal positive relationship.

When an asset correlates strongly with multiple majors, it is trading largely as market beta — the big caps set the direction and standalone outperformance is elusive. Weak or negative correlations instead signal idiosyncratic forces (its own news, sector rotation, narrative changes) capable of producing returns the broader market does not share.

About Quant

Quant (QNT) is a cryptocurrency, traded on global digital-asset markets. It trades at $258.37 as of the latest update, with a 24-hour move up 0.66%, placing it at rank #76 by market capitalisation among all listed digital assets. Quant's current market cap stands at $3.12B, a figure used by traders, analysts and institutional desks to gauge relative liquidity and risk exposure across the crypto market.

On this page you'll find a live, daily-refreshed dashboard tracking Quant across multiple data sources — price history going back several years, on-chain activity where available, fundamentals like circulating supply and dilution, top exchanges by volume, technical analysis using moving averages and RSI, and an algorithmic short, mid and long-term forecast. All figures are pulled from public APIs and cached locally; nothing here is investment advice.

Quant focuses on connecting blockchains. As liquidity and applications fragment across many chains, Quant provides the rails to move value and data between them, with the token underpinning that infrastructure.

Quant currently ranks #76 by market capitalisation, making it a top-100 asset. Its focus is enterprise interoperability, and launched in 2018. About 81% of the maximum QNT supply is in circulation today (12.07M of 14.88M), leaving a moderate emission stream still to come. It currently trades about 39% below its all-time high of $426.18 set in September 2021, while sitting roughly 4.6× above its record low.

STNews Analyst Note

By market value Quant (QNT) sits inside the top 100, trading at $258.37 as of the latest snapshot. QNT is +0.66% over 24 hours, +2.82% over the past week, putting it in the upper half of weekly performers across the top 250 by market capitalisation. Quant trades 39% off its all-time high of $426.18, a level first printed in September 2021. Roughly 81% of QNT's total supply is liquid today (12.07M of 14.88M), with the balance scheduled for gradual release over time.

Trading volume is light versus market value — only about 7.7% of capitalisation changes hands daily — so larger orders can move price more than they would for higher-liquidity peers.

How it works — Quant

Quant operates cross-chain infrastructure: validators, relayers, or a messaging protocol verify events on one chain and reproduce them on another, with the token used as collateral, governance, or fees. Because bridges concentrate value in transit, their security model is the single most important property — historically the most-exploited surface in all of crypto.

Quant currently ranks #76 by market capitalisation, making it a top-100 asset. Its focus is enterprise interoperability, and launched in 2018. About 81% of the maximum QNT supply is in circulation today (12.07M of 14.88M), leaving a moderate emission stream still to come. It currently trades about 39% below its all-time high of $426.18 set in September 2021, while sitting roughly 4.6× above its record low. Its fully-diluted valuation of $3.76B is about 1.2× the circulating market cap of $3.12B, a gap that signals issuance overhang to factor into any longer-term thesis.

Use cases — Quant

The main uses of Quant are moving assets and messages across chains, supplying liquidity to bridge routes, and governing or securing the protocol. Its traction is best read as the share of cross-chain volume it captures versus rival bridges.

Daily volume runs at about 7.7% of market capitalisation ($239.90M in the last 24 hours), in the normal band for a coin of this size and supportive of orderly entries and exits.

Tokenomics

Supply schedule & distribution

Circulating vs locked vs unminted
  • Circulating supply: 12.07M QNT — tokens actively trading and held by the public
  • Total supply: 14.88M QNT — all tokens minted to date (including those locked or held by the issuer)
  • Max supply: 14.88M QNT — the protocol-defined upper limit (if any) on lifetime issuance
  • Issued to date: 81.1% of max supply
  • Locked / treasury: 18.9% of total supply

Quant's supply schedule directly affects its long-term inflation rate and, by extension, how dilutive future issuance will be to existing holders. A coin near full dilution behaves very differently from one that still has 60% of its supply waiting to be unlocked.

Supply economics

Issuance pressure, dilution, and structural value accrual

The supply story for Quant comes down to three things: how tokens are issued over time, how many are circulating now, and how far the fully-diluted valuation sits above the circulating market cap. At 81.1% of maximum supply already issued, the remaining issuance is a relatively small fraction of total potential supply. Sell pressure from future issuance is therefore limited. The fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $3.8 billion stands at 1.2× the current circulating market cap of $3.1 billion. The wider this ratio, the more issuance overhang the asset faces — a structural headwind on valuation that mature assets like Bitcoin do not face but that early-cycle assets typically do.

For thesis-building, the relevant question is whether the structural value-accrual mechanism (fee burns, staking-yield reinvestment, deflationary supply mechanics, ecosystem TVL growth) outpaces the structural emission pressure. When it does, the price tends to grind higher over multi-quarter windows even without speculative momentum; when it does not, the asset typically requires consistent narrative-driven demand to absorb the issuance.

Trader's note

Coin-type-aware tactical interpretation

For Quant, the single most important diligence item is security: cross-chain bridges have suffered some of the largest exploits in crypto, because one contract or validator-set compromise can drain assets in transit. The token's adoption tracks how much cross-chain volume flows through it versus rival bridges.

Price Strength reads strong (90/100). Beyond market risk, weigh the protocol's security track record, the degree of centralisation in its design, and competitive pressure from other interoperability stacks — any of which can re-rate the token on protocol-specific news.

Macro & cross-asset context

How macro liquidity and cross-asset moves frame the trade

The macro backdrop for crypto assets is dominated by the Federal Reserve's rate path, the trajectory of dollar liquidity, and the unwind (or non-unwind) of the post-2020 expansion in M2 money supply. Crypto — Bitcoin in particular — has historically responded most strongly to shifts in the global liquidity regime, with risk-on phases coinciding with falling real yields and a softening dollar, and risk-off phases the inverse.

Several traditional markets serve as useful cross-checks: a strong dollar (DXY) has tended to weigh on crypto; rising 10-year Treasury yields raise the cost of holding risk; gold occasionally trades as a parallel hard-money hedge; and US equities frequently move in sympathy with crypto when the driver is liquidity rather than fundamentals.

Zooming in on Quant, the most reliable leading indicator has tended to be crypto-native liquidity itself — aggregate stablecoin supply, open interest in futures, and exchange volume. Rising on-chain liquidity has historically pulled QNT up; draining liquidity has done the opposite. With a comparatively loose 90-day BTC correlation of +0.14, QNT has shown more idiosyncratic price behaviour than the average large-cap — its own catalysts can matter as much as the broad liquidity tide.

Risks

Bridge-specific risks are severe: cross-chain bridges have suffered some of the largest exploits in crypto history, because a single contract or validator-set compromise can drain assets in transit. Add competition from rival bridges, smart-contract risk, and the centralisation many bridge designs still carry. Treat the security track record as the primary diligence item.
