What this is
Layer-1 blockchainQuarkChain is a 2018 network that promised a million transactions per second through sharding. The project outlived a whole era: back then sharding was the industry's key word, while today the same job is done by layers on top of Ethereum. What this shows: technology can keep working while demand for it disappears — the coin is about 99% below its June 2018 peak, and that is the price not of a failure but of a change in fashion. Such survivors are useful for comparison: they show what a project looks like seven years after the hype. Here it trades on HTX spot.

How to read this
- Funding is a payment between longs and shorts. A positive rate means longs pay shorts: the market is crowded long.
- The rate rank shows how unusual that rate is for this particular coin: 97 means above 97% of the last month, a rare skew. Without the rank the bare number says nothing — every coin has its own normal.
- Open interest is the money sitting in positions that are still open. Rising alongside price means new money entering; rising while price falls means shorts building up.
- The OI rank is measured in contracts rather than dollars: otherwise it would drift up with price alone and claim a record where nothing changed.
- NATR shows how much a coin moves relative to its own price. High NATR with high turnover is where today's action is.
