Quint - connecting NFTs to the real world

Founded in 2022 by Mohammed Al Bulooki, Quint is an NFT marketplace that has brought a unique disruption to the NFT space. The NFT platforms usually try to compete with each other over user interface or type of items offered, however, most fail in captivating the real world. To accomplish this goal, the team came up with several unique features. Different from the regular staking pool, the QUINT Super-staking Pools has two main categories: Luxury Raffle Pools and Quintessential Pools.  

In addition to the standard crypto reward, Super-staking in Luxury Raffle Pools will yield real-world luxury prizes through raffles that will be held at the end of the staking duration for the pools. The minimum lock-in period and the minimum investment amount for these pools will vary depending on the value of the fixed real-world incentive in the respective pools. When the user stakes their tokens in any of the Quintessential Pools, a pool-specific NFT will be airdropped to their wallet which will then be redeemable on Reward Redemption Dashboard against pool rewards such as hotel stays, airline tickets, etc.  

At the time of staking in any of the Quintessential Pools, a second NFT will be airdropped to the staker’s wallet. It will act as a virtual key to unlock perks.  There are many tie-ups in place with leading hospitality and realty development brands and many more partnerships underway. Furthermore, it is exclusive to the Super-stakers in the Quintessential Pools. For example, deals at restaurants, hotels, membership of Quint Metaverse Arts Club, and access to limited edition Quint Merchandise & Shop, etc.

Quint has raised a total of $25M in funding.
