Quanto

What is Quanto?

Quanto is a next-generation perpetuals exchange that introduces a novel derivative class known as quanto perpetuals. On Quanto, all trading pairs are denominated and settled in the exchange's native token, $QTO, regardless of the underlying asset. This unique model allows traders to use their entire portfolio as cross-margin collateral, eliminating the need to sell holdings into stablecoins before opening a position.

At the platform's core is the $QTO token, through which all profits, losses, and liquidations are settled. This creates a self-sustaining economic flywheel where platform activity strengthens the ecosystem and directs value back to token holders.

Key features include: * Perpetual futures on a wide range of assets with 5x–200x leverage. * A cross-margin system for enhanced capital efficiency. * Support for exotic and high-risk assets. * Deep liquidity for major pairs, powered by Hyperliquid. * Mobile applications and a Telegram bot for trading on the go. * Day-one transparency tools, including Proof of Reserves and live token analytics.

Who is the Quanto Founder?

The founder of Quanto is Yoaquim. His vision for the platform stems from his dual experience as a crypto venture capitalist and an active perpetuals trader. This perspective led him to design an exchange focused on creating better alignment between the platform and its users through a sustainable, non-extractive model, where the community shares in the platform's success.

When did Quanto Launch?

Quanto launched on July 8, 2025, with a full suite of products designed for high-performance trading.

How much are Quanto Fees?

Quanto employs a tiered maker-taker fee structure. The platform also incorporates a rewards program where users can receive fee rebates in $QTO and $SOL. Rebate levels are determined by a user's $QTO holdings and referral activity. A detailed breakdown of the fee schedule is available in the official Quanto documentation.

Is It Possible To Use Leverage or Margin Trading on Quanto?

Yes, leverage trading is a core feature of the Quanto exchange. The platform offers leverage from 5x up to 200x, with the maximum available leverage varying by trading pair and market conditions. This is enabled by its innovative cross-margin system, which allows users to utilize any supported asset in their portfolio as collateral for margin trading.
