Project Quantum

Project Quantum is a distinctive venture that strives to merge the realms of gaming and cryptocurrency. Initiated in May 2021, this project is primarily based in Scotland, UK, and is propelled by an international team. The primary objective of Project Quantum is to develop a AAA game, constructed on Unreal Engine, that enables players to interact with the game using real-world valued items. The in-game economy is energized by its own cryptocurrency token, QBIT, which is a BEP-20 token on a well-known blockchain platform. This token is utilized for all transactions within the game, including acquiring, selling, and moving items.

Project Quantum operates on a unique model that integrates gaming and cryptocurrency. The game is an instanced MMOFPS (Massively Multiplayer Online First-Person Shooter) where players, known as "Seekers", can acquire loot, combat other players for their equipment, hunt powerful monsters, mine for resources, and search for ancient technology. The game is set in a rich sci-fi universe full of lore, mystery, and danger. The QBIT token powers the in-game economy, with a 10% tax on all transactions. This tax is used to generate income for Quantum Works, the company behind Project Quantum, and to inject value back into the game economy in the form of in-game rewards, item value, and competition prizes.

Project Quantum seeks to redefine the gaming experience by integrating a real-world economy into a virtual gaming world. The QBIT token, which powers the in-game economy, can be used for a variety of transactions within the game. Players can use QBIT to acquire and exchange items, compete for prizes, and even earn rewards. The game also allows players to mine for resources and search for ancient technology, adding another layer of engagement and interaction. Furthermore, Project Quantum is developing a plugin for Unreal Engine that will allow interaction between the blockchain and off-chain data, which could potentially be used by other game development companies to integrate more AAA titles into the blockchain.

Project Quantum was launched on May 21st, 2021, by Quantum Works, a company founded by Fraser Gordon. The project was born out of a unique opportunity and a gap in the global marketplace for a AAA gaming title and studio that integrates a real-world economy into the gaming experience. Quantum Works operates through its own cryptocurrency token, QBIT, which drives the economy in Project Quantum and future titles to come. The project has since been working on developing the game and building a plugin for Unreal Engine to facilitate interaction between the blockchain and off-chain data.
