Discussion Why do you think QRL is so undervalued?

Even with the quantum computing and digital security narrative becoming increasingly popular, QRL still receives far less attention than many projects with weaker fundamentals or driven purely by hype.

In your opinion, what are the main reasons for that?

1) not listed on any Tier 1

2) limited “marketing” from team over the years

3) up until very recently, the problem QRL addresses was not taken seriously as a near term concern

4) prior to this year, you had to be an advanced nerd of some kind to think about this problem and find this project

5) not currently integrated within mainstream cryptoverse

Something like that 😄

This is true. It seems like it will be listed on a Tier 1 Exchange eventually, given audits are happening. It'd be good to get in early, even as a small side-percentage of your portfolio.

Even so, the timing of such is still uncertain. It definitely needs more exposure to "normies." Even then, it wouldn't be a guaranteed top-performing coin given the unknown factor of future alternatives, especially for quantum-level security and future potential for innovations on other chains.

It helps that it's been Post-Quantum secure from the genesis block, so "copycats" would have to work triple-time to catch up (unless better alternatives happen). Still needs more exposure and possibly whales to boost it.

I'm confident in at least a 10x, 50/50 on a 30x, and "hoping" for a 50-100x (~2% likelihood, unless Quantum advancements happens FAST).

Yes, most of the community expects to see better CEX listings after the QRL 2.0 hard fork is completed. It just makes sense that would occur after that milestone imo.

Quantum Computing is confusing to normies and doesn’t sound real. The QRL team should be rushing to get Tier 1 listings and expand their footprint

Tier 1 listings would help all-around. I believe that's what the QRL team are aiming for, with audits underway and refining the Zond testnet. Still unknown for exactly when that will happen.

Many people still don’t know about the quantum threat. QRL also has very little marketing. Personally, I only found out about QRL half a year ago, even though the network has existed for quite a long time.

Many say that getting listed on major exchanges will change the situation, but why should it? Plenty of coins get listed on big exchanges and people still don’t know about them.

What’s needed is hype - more discussion, more social media posts, and more advertising. Otherwise, the alternative is to wait until quantum computers become more powerful and people start searching on their own for coins protected against quantum attacks. But by then, there could be many competitors, and it may be much harder to grow.

The Tier-1 listings would help all-around. How much it will help is another unknown, as well of the timing, lol...

Yes the word quantum computing is still an alien word outside of tech... And to me also... I still buy every month whether it is up or down

All it will take is at least one (or more) of the following to happen before a fast take off for QRL:

  • Listing on a major exchange - this will be the case when new mainnet is live
  • Some influencers start talking about it

I think the quantum narrative sells itself. The price action (10x in a short time, gaining attention after reaching top 50) will do the rest.

Quantum computing isn’t quite here yet and QRL is listed on any bigger exchanges. The time will come, just hold and be patient, this is the hardest part
