Not needed. QTUM its developments are impressive. QTUM doesnt need other projects. I cant wait for its Virtual Machine to go up and running. A sustainable price is a result of tech. improvements. QTUM actually achieves their deadlines, most other projects cant say this. Crypto is nearing the phase where real usecases and real products will make the difference after such a long period of mostly speculation. QTUM with its developments will make the difference compared to other projects imho. Lets see!

Thanks for the news. I am watching the project and it is of great interest to me. Let's see how it goes.

Consensus 2018


On Device Key Management Panel



At Consensus, Jordan Earls, Qtum’s co-founder and lead developer, appeared on the “On Device Key Management” panel moderated by Zaki Manian, executive director of the Trusted IoT Alliance. Jordan’s co-panelists, Nicolas Bacca, the CTO of Ledger, and Allison Clift-Jennings, CEO of Filament, discussed the use cases and security aspects of using cryptographic keys for identity, messaging signing, cryptocurrencies, and smart contracts.

Filament, which announced their new USB-compatible Blocklet device at Consensus, has enabled companies to rapidly test and deploy blockchain tools for business use cases.

Ledger, who makes the popular Ledger Nano S device for storing cryptocurrencies, has allowed hundreds of thousands of individuals to safely secure their crypto on a small device.

Jordan spoke about the unique complexities of storing and staking cryptocurrency on the Qtum blockchain since the token has to be in a hot wallet to take part in validating transactions and securing the network.







Meanwhile, at the booth, the Qtum team engaged many of the attendees, businesses, and fans of the project. We had much fun meeting everyone, and it helped us understand our audience better.

We’d also like to thank our dapps that came to Consensus and showed their support, like Bodhi, Vevue, Mossland, Vanywhere, and Qbao.




QTUM Tech Meetup at Columbia



QTUM, together with SpaceChain, Energo, and Bodhi, we hosted another tech meetup at Columbia University on May 12th.

Columbia students and a few faculty member and blockchain enthusiasts in NYC attended the meetup.

QTUM co-founder and lead developer Jordan Earls gave a brief introduction of QTUM’s upcoming X86 virtual machine and the soon to launch global developer tour and online hackathon. QTUM’s X86 virtual machine will enable programmers to write smart contracts with more mainstream programming languages such as Go, Rust, C++, and more. Jordan is leading the team in developing the said VM and currently, it is in the prototyping phase.








Jordan also revealed that QTUM is about to launch its first online hackathon which will last for three months and welcomes anyone who aspires to build on or for QTUM to join. The hackathon will accept online submission and promises handsome financial reward in addition to a spot to QTUM’s global dev con and other community support.

Zz, Founder and CEO of SpaceChain also gave a quick update of the project. SpaceChain OS is a universal space OS that can convert single-operator satellites into multi-tenant ones, thus users can develop different types of space-based applications on a single satellite. SpaceChain OS also enables compatibility between SpaceChain’s hardware and the various applications that the developers are developing/using, acting as a bridge that lets both participants in the space arena and SpaceChain “speak” to each other. Z also announced that their launch plan for its second low-orbit satellite later this year.

KK, co-founder of Energy also gave a great presentation about the recent progress of Energo Las. Energo Labs is committed to creating a dynamic ecosystem that is more resilient, equitable, and responsive to diverse community needs. KK shared her personal story with blockchain and showcased their project with a newly produced video with lego blocks and explained their project nicely and elegantly.

In the end, Sam from Bodhi presented the recent update of Bodhi, a QTUM based prediction market. Bodhi has been launched on QTUM main net and has other exciting news lined up.









Qtum Tech Meetup at Yale



On Wednesday, May 11th, the Qtum team and Bodhi hosted a local meetup at Yale’s campus.

The audience which include professors, students, technologists, and fans of Qtum got to ask David Jaenson, one of Qtum’s core developers, John Scianna, Qtum’s marketing director, and Samuel Suh, from Bodhi, questions about the industry and Qtum.

The meetup took a different approach than the one at Columbia, with a lot of audience engagement. Thanks to the students who came despite finals being over, we hope you are enjoying your summer now.




QTUM Sponsor Crypto Influencer Summit



On May 17th, QTUM sponsored and attended the first crypto influencer summit. Over 50 influencers in blockchain industry showed up, together with entrepreneurs, traders and surprisingly large sum of developers.

During the event, QTUM’s BD Director Natalie Deng moderated the first panel “YouTube in the Blockchain”. Together with four crypto influencers and one blockchain entrepreneur, they discussed the role YouTube played in today’s blockchain industry, the ethics of influencers and how can blockchain projects best utilize the power of social media.

That is awesome news thanks for this reminder today will push this project towards the mainstream. That is very big event so many people join them and they will launch this during this. I think so QTUM is undervalued project with a great platform it should have more big market.

1 Qtum= 200$ this year!

yep, screen shot this.  virtual machine and already PoS.

Hello QTUM believers,

Our aim is to add value to the whole crypto community by giving the best user experience to analyse cryptocurrencies.

It would be really great help from your side if you can spend 60 seconds of your time and give us your valuable feedback for our two recent updates 1) Snapshot and 2) Colourful interface of QTUM at: https://cointopper.com/coin/qtum

Constructive criticisms are always welcome at CoinTopper.  Thank you!!

Qtum as an Ethereum ERC20 token is a dying token, probably 99.5% of them have been burned, destroyed forever. It is very surprising that a few people still have them.

True, I cant wait until we are able to see QTUM its virtual machine X86. QTUM really builds stuff instead of hype, lets see how many Ethereum projects will switch to QTUM midterm.

where's earlz? your dev who helped build BTI?    >_> has he been mia for a minute?
