About Quant
Quant says its technology is the brainchild of its cofounder Gilbert Verdian, who while serving at HM Treasury in the UK Government in 2009, and later as Chief Information Security Officer for a Department of Health in Australia “realised the full potential of DLTs [distributed ledger technologies].”
The platform was also cofounded by Dr Paolo Tasca, an entrepreneur and digital economist specialized in distributed systems. Dr. Tasca has served as a special advisor on blockchain technology at the United Nations and worked with central banks throughout the world.

The Drift Revenue Mystery Everyone Missed
Drift Protocol (DRIFT) is the largest decentralized perpetual futures exchange on Solana, founded in 2021. Pre-exploit metrics through Q1 2026: 175,000+ unique traders, $150B cumulative volume, $550M TVL, monthly revenue around $47M, and 35+ ecosystem integrations. On April 1, 2026, North Korean DPRK-linked attackers drained $285M in roughly 12 minutes via social engineering and a fake collateral token (CarbonVote/CVT), the largest DeFi hack of 2026. TVL collapsed from $550M to under $250M; the DRIFT token fell roughly 70% post-hack and now trades around $0.04, down 98.4% from its $2.60 ATH. Tether announced a $147.5M revenue-linked recovery package on April 16, 2026 ($127.5M Tether, $20M partners), with Drift switching settlement from USDC to USDT. Circle drew criticism for letting $232M in stolen USDC bridge from Solana to Ethereum across 6 hours. Relaunch is targeted for May or June 2026. The thesis: Drift's pre-exploit revenue, not its TVL, is what Tether is underwriting.
Arweave Tokenomics Explained Without the Math Degree
The AR token is designed to pay for something else: permanent data storage. That difference informs every aspect of arweave tokenomics. The AR token has a hard capped maximum supply of 66 million tokens, a circulating supply of 65.65 million AR tokens already in circulation, and a current market cap of approximately $138.5 million according to CoinGecko.
Quant Staking Returns 8% While Locking Supply Off Exchanges
Quant Network's Trusted Node Program goes live in mid-2026. This will also introduce staking to the Overledger Fusion network for the first time. With only 12,072,738 QNT of circulating supply and a hard cap of 14,612,493 tokens, every token locked into the validator nodes can be computed into a very real reduction in exchange liquidity. Staking isn't just an incentive mechanism. It's a supply-side event on a token with one of the smallest circulating supplies in the top 60 by market cap.
