A single person stands behind Quant and the QNT token: Gilbert Verdian, founder and chief executive of Quant Network Ltd in London. He spent some twenty years in cybersecurity, most recently as security chief at the operator of the United Kingdom's payment infrastructure, and has run his company since September 2015. Search for the Quant founder and you mostly find what the company writes about him. This article sets the British companies register alongside that account, and the two versions diverge in two places.

That matters if you hold QNT or are considering it. The token is tied to a software company with exactly one appointed director, and the price reacts to news about the banking mandates that company wins. On October 13, 2026, QNT traded at around $216, or about 193 euros, with a market capitalization of roughly $3.1 billion and rank 35 in the market. If you are putting that much money behind a corporate history, it is worth knowing which part of it can be verified in a public register and which part exists only in a company biography.

Who is behind Quant? The Quant founder in three sentences

Quant founder Gilbert Verdian, who as CEO also chairs the board, is a British citizen, lives in the United Kingdom and has been an appointed director since September 28, 2015 of the company now called Quant Network Ltd. Before Quant he was security chief at Vocalink, the Mastercard-owned operator of the British payment infrastructure, and before that he worked at the UK Treasury, at HSBC and at the health department of the Australian state of New South Wales. His firm sells software that lets banks settle payments across different blockchains, and the QNT token is the means of payment for the licence to that software.
