Our model projects Qtum at $0.1751 in 2030 and $0.3107 by 2036 — -66.2% against today's $0.9200 in the base case. The 2030 range runs from $0.00800986 in the bear case to $1.92 in the bull case.

Why below today's price? Most altcoins lose ground to Bitcoin over a full cycle — between the 2021 and 2025 peaks, only 3.5% of those we measured gained on it — and the model starts Qtum from that base rate. Why Most Altcoins Lose to Bitcoin, Cycle After Cycle

Qtum price prediction year by year

Year-end central forecast and the band around it. Select a year for the model's reasoning. In 2026, a quarter that has already begun and has no forecast of its own shows the observed closing price instead: “close” once the quarter is over, “latest close” while it is still under way.

Qtum: the case for and against

What our documented research establishes about the project itself, with its sources. It is an assessment of the project, not the reason behind the number: the price model reads price series only.

Qtum is a legitimate, long-running blockchain project launched in 2017 that maintains an active development cadence and undergoes external audits for network updates. However, it suffers from diminished network traction and market interest relative to newer smart contract platforms.

Methodology
What the model reads

Bitcoin's trajectory multiplied by today's QTUM/BTC ratio and a drift measured across the whole altcoin universe. Nothing is fitted to QTUM alone — every per-coin parameter that was tested lost to the shared drift.

Model confidence
Model confidence for QTUM in 2030

The band is built to hold the price 82% of the time. The published confidence, 6.8/10, sits lower: it starts from what our documented research establishes about the project itself, and nothing raises it back. It eases to 6.5/10 by 2036 so that long-range bands stay readable.

Only the nearest horizons rest on a backtest. Later years carry a declared level — the band’s design level, capped by our research score — that no backtest can confirm yet; where one found the band holding the price less often, we publish that lower figure.
