QNT has become a major altcoin market story after a partnership with The Clearing House drove its price from $74 to $357 in less than a week, a rise of nearly 400%. The asset has since retreated to $241. The move may reflect more than a short-lived reaction to the partnership, with Santiment reporting around 645 QNT whale transactions (large-holder trades) worth at least $100,000 on September 28, the highest level on its chart. Santiment said sustained whale activity is encouraging, but that price cooling and consolidation would provide a healthier setup than another rapid surge.
