Quant’s recent uptrend has brought its weekly gains to 12%. However, the altcoin remained down by 11% in one month, but an in-depth look at on-chain metrics shows a positive outlook that could push QNT higher.

The rising volumes suggest that Quant whales are becoming active again, which could precede a spike in volatility, considering these addresses account for 51% of QNT’s ownership.
