I am very much interested in investing on Quarkchain. I think it's going to do very well in market. A great team works behind it and it already has son many supporters.

Thanks Bellmen08!   I learned a lot from other experts particularly blockchainbrad's interview with the CEO of quark chain.

They wants to develop system like block chain but this system will fail because bitcoin is the 1st developer who introduces block chain system so this system can’t sustain in the market and there are also many limitations so will it’s not easy to use.

As I know Quarkchain is a really good ICO project at the moment, it's being so many good ICO lists of ICO listing group on telegram and Facebook Smiley. Although there are still few bad reports about Quarkchain ICO project but I still believe that it's a good ICO project to invest in. Grin

This is a project from Korea, and this project is very good.
So I'm very bullish on this project, and it's worth holding for a long time.

Has Quarkchain any bounty? I will be interested in doing bounties for them, their ICO looks very promising!


I am not aware of any bounty however please visit their telegram site which is linked on their website.

I have done my background research on Quarkchain and I must it is a very good project and I am thinking getting involved in their upcoming sales, I think the project have a good future, the only problem i have with them right now is that doing their kyc is so difficult, so many requirement for you to pass your kyc. you need to go to telegram then get a link then open a form which expires after a certain period of time. There kyc process disgusts me but I like the project anyways.

This project is now viewed by too many people, but at present it is very characteristic for publicity. The feeling is that the next eos, but this team does not have historical achievements can be traced back, or it is recommended that other projects come out for inspection, so that it is more secure.

I was so happy to invest in this project and after waiting such a long time i found out that my country was recently listed as FATF so i cannot participate in a lot of new great ICOs.
@vrabak68

Yes it will be a challenge to win the lottery to be able to invest.   Quarkchain is asking you to do 3 things.

1) join their community Telegram before  may 4'th 2018
2). make a video or write a small article about Quarkchain
3). take a quiz to prove you know the technology

If you perform 1  and also take the quiz and score  60 pts.  or higher you have a chance to win the lottery.

Otherwise this one is a possibly a good project to invest when it hits the exchanges.


Please do your own research.

why Quarkchain is a gamechanger.
Why I think Quarkchain can be a gamechanger in blockchain technology.
QuarkChain (QKC)
Why QuarkChain may be a game changer.
Scalability —
Security —
Turing Complete EVM-
Summary
Quarkchain description:
The advent of bitcoin and blockchain technology is revolutionizing businesses and industries on a global scale. It is a fact that many industries and corporations are rushing to adopt blockchains technology in efforts to be competitive and efficient. However, before mainstream adoption is possible, a few principle aspect of blockchain tech needs to be improved upon. One critical aspect is scalability. Another major issue is decentralization and security. It is a comman fact that centralized proof of work mining pools namely on the bitcoin network, are making it impossible for the blockchain to be truly decentralized and secure. A major concern with bitcoin is the possible threat of a 51% attack of the network if a mining pool becomes too large, thus the security of the network is compromised. Quarkchain has a solution to this problem.
Lets consider scalability.
Take a look at ethereum for example, they can do approx 15 tps which is not scalable for high transaction throughputs. Visa currently claims to do approx 56000 tps on its centralized network.  Cryptokitties recently revealed ethereums scalability issue by using up 15% of the ethereum network. It is obvious that mainstream adoption is impossible without scalability. This is particularly true if blockchain were to adopt micro high speed transactions. There are some proposed solutions to these problems with other projects such as Bitcoin’s Lightning Network is only applicable to frequent off- chain transactions among a fixed group of parties and Ethereum’s Casper technology is still in development.
https://quarkchain.io/ has real solutions!
I encourage you to read the whitepaper on their website as it has very clear and concise explanation of their solution. A quick synopsis is as follows:
To solve the problems above, Quark Chain has built and developed a dual blockchain solution of their own from scratch. A first layer is an elastic shard blockchain. This first layer contains a list of blockchains or shards that process a sub-set of all transactions independently. The second layer of the Quarkchain system is a Root Layer blockchain that confirms all blocks for the shard blockchains. The Root layer ensures the security and decentralizing of the blockchain while the sharding layer extend its scalability. It is easy to add shards to the first shard layer and transaction speed increases linearly with added chains — up to 1 million transactions per second (tps), according to the project — without compromising on security and decentralization. The bottom line is…. The more the number of shards in the network of the first layer blockchain, the higher the capacity of the blockchain. Meanwhile Quarkchain also solves the problem of decentralization by allowing clusters of honest nodes in a network to run as a supernode. Please refer to the whitepaper for specifics.
As a result, QuarkChain’s platform is expected to:
· Enhance scalability while guaranteeing security and decentralization.
· Enable seamless cross-shard transactions to ensure a quality experience for users.
· Provide simple account management for clients; only one account for all shards.
· Provide an open infrastructure for DApps that require high transaction throughput.
· Be an incentive-driven ecosystem.
Furthermore, network participants will be rewarded in QKC tokens for running nodes and supporting the network — participants may choose to join a cluster of nodes and form a super-full node. QuarkChain is also expected to support smart contracts by using the Ethereum Virtual Machine.
Here is what really excites me about the project. While Listening to the founder Qi Zhou in an interview he stated that it will be possible to deploy ethereum smart contracts from the ethereum virtual machine onto the quarkchain. This is a gamechanger in my opinion as projects that need scalability on the EVM can simply be integrated into Quarkchain’s first layer as a shard. Thus the infrastructure that is being built on ethereum can theoretically have scaling and security solutions as simple as deploying onto Quarkchain and being interoperable between both chains. QKC is QuarkChain’s native token and it should serve as the governing currency in the ecosystem. It will be used to pay network fees, as a medium to exchange value, and to reward community members for their contributions.
Existing Product
The QuarkChain project claims to have an in-house testnet that reaches around 2,000 transactions per second. There is no public proof of that, but several people confirmed privately that they’ve seen the prototype.
Roadmap
Q2 2018 — Testnet 0.1 along with Wallet 0.1 (10K+ tps).
Q3 2018 — Testnet 0.2.
Q4 2018 — QuarkChain Core 1.0, Mainnet 1.0, Smart Wallet 1.0 (100K+ tps).
Q2 2019 — QuarkChain Core 2.0, Smart Wallet 2.0 (1M+ tps).
Hard Cap and Valuation
The project aims to raise $20 million. Total token supply is 10 Billion and team tokens will be vested over 2 years. More information about token distribution will be released in due time.
Marketing Power
As of the time this post was published, QuarkChain had over 19,600 followers on Telegram, 3,900+ followers on Twitter, over 1,000 followers on Mediumand 107 followers on GitHub.
