The takeover of QORA development took place in 2016 with the goal of rebuilding QORA into QORA2 as well as launching Qortal as a clone to be focused solely on a totally decentralized trade portal. However, since the takeover, many things have been modified in terms of overall goals. As of now, the Qortal Project will have the functionality of both QORA2 and Qortal (the original concept of a truly Decentralized Trading Platform). Thus, making Qortal an all-in-one platform with capabilities well beyond that of any existing blockchain system! By combining the ideas of the trade portal with the decentralized application hosting aspects of QORA, Qortal aims to be the most decentralized and scalable platform in existence. Virtually any public or private applications can be built on the chain, therefore, encouraging everyone to come together rather than having any need to compete. The system will reward every contributor to the network based fairly on their level of contribution. | The takeover of QORA development took place in 2016 with the goal of rebuilding QORA into QORA2 as well as launching Qortal as a clone to be focused solely on a totally decentralized trade portal.

There has never been any other concept such as Qortal with a completely custom codebase that makes all of the core concepts possible to achieve.
