A year of buying QI
Over the last 340 days QI closed between $0.001075 (July 16, 2026) and $0.006445 (October 13, 2025). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $258 today; at the high, $43. The current price $0.002778 is above 232 of those 340 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 68% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves QI by 18.4%: a $1,000 position swings about $184 a day.
