Quant is a blockchain operating system that enables interoperability between different blockchains and legacy systems.

This architecture enables developers to build applications that can leverage the strengths of different blockchains and integrate with existing systems.
Quant's ecosystem includes an App Store and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offerings tailored for enterprises and specific industries like healthcare, supply chain, and financial services. The native QNT token is used for accessing network resources, paying licensing fees, and compensating gateway operators who facilitate transaction traffic on Overledger.
