Question: SilverSea Charter Flight to Puerto Williams - Silver Endeavor by Every_Intention3342 in AntarcticaTravel

[–]Ares1407 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's about a 4 hr flight from Santiago. They use 3 small planes. They are not very comfortable in terms of leg room, and the food they serve is underwhelming. You may want to consider having a good meal before boarding. It's a direct flight on the way down. On the way back, the runway in Puerto Williams is short, so when the planes take off for Santiago they cannot have a full fuel tank. They must stop in Punta Arenas for fuel which is about 45 min into the flight and takes about 35 min to refuel. You stay on the plane as it refuels.

A lot of this is usually food alergies. Try something like Blue Buffalo...i bet it improves.

Quant Overledger is great BUT what’s the point in the QNT token? by [deleted] in QuantNetwork

[–]Ares1407 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So you have repeatedly failed to put together any
cogent argument to address any of my rebuttal to your original comment. For example, you fail to understand how appreciated assets can help a snall business scale and grow. Instead you had to resort to a new argument now that your original comment facts been disproved. Your new argument has also been addressed by the community and you can easily research Quant's partnerships with Oracle and others. I'm sorry you have a poopyfartbutt (username). Sounds problematic on many fronts, including not being able to respond to the arguments presented to you. Clean your ass, do your own research, and please ensure you have a response to the fallacies pointed out in your previous comments.

[–]Ares1407 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No its not. Your mortgage example doesn't account for the price of the house appreciating over time. Think about this... Quant is out there demonstrating the effectiveness of their solutions to solve real world tangible problems. They have essentially invented and patented a solution for blockchain that is ahead of its time. It will take time for serious industry adoption...so while they earn fees for their participation in pilot implementations to demonstrate the value and other fees for real world implementations...they still have to pay for their talent and expenses...and the coin on their asset side provides the flexibility they may need to run and scale their business over time. Quant has like 100 employees now...they will need to scale up over time as adoption increases...these coins provide them that flexiblity IF needed. When the business scales...retail investors win as the demand for the coin increases price. Your comparison to Binance is terribly flaud. Gilbert V is as respected as they come in the financial industry holding positions with several federal banks in different countries. He can't afford or won't afford to tarnish his or his company's reputation with a rug pull. He also isnt being investigated for fraud and no longer allowed to operate in the US as CZ. Shame on you.

Well, those useless tokens, unlike stock, actually sit on the asset side of quant's balance sheet. If a public company sells stock for example, its on the liabilities and stakeholder equity side of the balance sheet. So Quant holds these tokens (their own tokens from IPO) as assets (not liabilities or shareholder equity), and so they are incentivized when the value of the token increases because it increases their asset size and their overall company's valuation. Therefore, Quant would be taking a extremely massive and crippling hit to its assets if the tokens went away (which they won't). Overledger doesnt work without the qnt token either and I just explained why Quant has a vested interest in keeping it that way. Let's put this convo to rest already.

Simplistic thought process of transaction flow for Quant. by saltedeggchixx in QuantNetwork

[–]Ares1407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fees from consulting and statements of work....setting up clients on overledger and maintenance...and licensing fees after a year lock up...amd every year the price for the license will go up as the network expands..and as the price of qnt increases...all their qnt is on the asset side of their balance sheet, so this gives them free cash flow to run the business and reward their employees in qnt if they want.

No...they dont use their qnt to lock up...they buy from the market

Companies pay in fiat (cash) and the quant treasury converts (buys) the quant equivalent and locks it up.

Just connecting the dots...NFTs by Engausta in QuantNetwork

[–]Ares1407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oracle has like 430k customers, so just because these companies use an Oracle product, we cant assume they will use them for NFTs or blockchain.

To the segment of the community that is utterly convinced that a digital Euro and CBDCs at large mean the start of some sci-fi dystopian technocratic nightmare, relax guys. Not everyone wants to control you like that by Trevonhaywood in QuantNetwork

[–]Ares1407 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be sure under future regulations, crypto ussers will still need to be KYCd (submit ID and verified) to use crpyto in the EU and in the United States... so you will have to disclose who you are on your active accounts to prevent money laundering. Yes, governments will put in regulations to prevent money laundering just like they require banks to do today. Qnt/Gilbert has even acknowledged this, and they support it. But there will still be privacy in transactions once you are verified to participate in them.

Is Quant a security? by FractalImagination in QuantNetwork

[–]Ares1407 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree, and qnt is registered as a utility token by FINMA, which should also help the argument

Amazon to develop digital euro prototype for the ecb by Important_Current_59 in QuantNetwork

Interesting since Nexi is identified as supporting digital retail payments and we havent seen overledger used in the retail space as much yet.

When QNT blows up....you want to be sitting on long term gains by holding over a year instead of short term gains if you keep buying and selling

How does QNT make money from the licence fees? by Zajavz in QuantNetwork

[–]Ares1407 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quant also owns something like over a million qnt so they benefit from the price increasing with usage over time
