QUADRANT IS PARTNERING WITH POLYGON TO LAUNCH GEOLANCER.
Geolancer is a platform for gamifying the collection of Point-of-Interest (POI) data. Participating freelancers — Geolancers — can earn Quadrant’s cryptocurrency, eQUAD, by simply mapping POIs (shops, convenience stores, restaurants, and others) in their neighborhood using a dedicated smartphone application.
While eQUAD was originally issued as an ERC-20 token, considering the high gas prices and the scalability issues of the main Ethereum network. Polygon’s commit chain is 100% EVM-compatible, secured by a permissionless set of PoS validators and checkpoints submitted to Ethereum. Quadrant decided to utilize this chain to distribute Geolancer rewards in a fast and efficient manner.
