It is capable of MUCH more than any other blockchain even now, and will be capable of much more in the future as development continues. The value of QORT should directly reflect the value in the services on the network, once more people are seeing it... right now the value is extremely under-valued since there aren’t enough investor eyes on the project that understand how valuable it really is... even just the Trade Portal is a multi-billion dollar trade platform that requires NO 3rd party in order to trade directly across blockchains person-to-person. | You can think of owning QORT like owning a ‘stock’ in the value of the entire Qortal Ecosystem.
