BREAKING: Quantum Resistant Ledger (QRL) Surges 23% to $1.67
Quantum Resistant Ledger (QRL) has surged 23% in the past 24 hours, reaching $1.67 as of March 4, 2026, 8:59 PM UTC. The cryptocurrency gained $0.31 per token, with market capitalization climbing $22.9 million to $131.2 million.
The dramatic price movement comes as QRL posted a 10.67% gain in just the last hour, indicating accelerating momentum. The token reached an intraday high of $1.65 before settling at current levels, up from a 24-hour low of $1.36.
Market Performance Details
QRL’s market cap increased by 21.16% over the 24-hour period, now ranking #234 among all cryptocurrencies. Trading volume reached $113,458, with 78.39 million QRL tokens currently in circulation out of a maximum supply of 105 million.
The weekly performance shows sustained strength, with QRL up 13.89% over the past seven days. However, the 30-day chart reveals a 26.29% decline, suggesting recent buying pressure may represent a technical bounce or renewed interest in quantum-resistant blockchain technology.
Historical Context
Despite today’s rally, QRL remains 58.74% below its all-time high of $3.87 set on January 9, 2018. The token has, however, surged 3,774% from its all-time low of $0.041 recorded on December 1, 2023.
The current price action represents significant recovery momentum for a project focused on post-quantum cryptography, which aims to protect blockchain networks from potential future threats posed by quantum computers.
About Quantum Resistant Ledger
QRL is designed specifically to address the theoretical vulnerability of current blockchain cryptographic systems to quantum computing attacks. The project utilizes XMSS (eXtended Merkle Signature Scheme), a hash-based signature scheme considered resistant to attacks from both classical and quantum computers.
With the circulating supply representing 74.66% of maximum supply, QRL has relatively limited inflation potential remaining, which may contribute to price volatility during periods of increased demand.
The fully diluted valuation matches the current market cap at $131.2 million, indicating all metrics are calculated based on circulating supply rather than maximum potential supply.
This is a developing story. Price data accurate as of March 4, 2026, 8:59 PM UTC.
