Is QuStream publicly traded?
QuStream does not sell stock, but you can buy the QST token.
As mentioned on the What Is QuStream page, QuStream relies on a decentralized network of nodes distributed around the world. Decentralized networks are a mechanism that have supported the creation and security of blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and QuStream adopted this model as well.
This means that there is a QuStream utility token, called QST, which is currently bought and sold on the Solana crypto network. When QuStream gets paid by its customers it takes a portion of those earnings and buys the QST token to pay the node operators, so unlike other crypto projects the token is regularly supported by a direct influx of value from outside the network.
Where to Buy the QST token
If you choose to buy QST, there are a few options available.
U.S.-based Coinbase users (excluding New York state) can buy QuStream (QST) on the main Coinbase app. Just paste the QuStream contract address into the main search box: AUuCEHQ7sm2i5GmaHrpE961voWcTY8U6mgrkhcV7pump
Also, you can currently find QST on the Solana blockchain. You can set up a Phantom Wallet or a Solflare Wallet (desktop | mobile) and use options within these applications to buy Solana (SOL) or if you're used to dollar increments then you can buy U.S Dollar Coin (USDC).
If you want to buy more than the wallet will allow, you could do a wire transfer to a Coinbase account, buy USDC or SOL, and then send that to your Phantom Wallet or your Solflare Wallet where you can swap it for QST.
Sometimes scammers create coins that look like the one you want to buy, to trick you into giving them your funds. The best way to be sure you're buying the right thing is to look up the token you want to buy and get the contract address (the official unique identifier). The QuStream (QST) contract address is AUuCEHQ7sm2i5GmaHrpE961voWcTY8U6mgrkhcV7pump but it's never a bad idea to double-check these things. You can find the QST contract address by searching for "contract" on the QuStream token page on CoinMarketCap or on CoinGecko to verify that we're not providing inaccurate info.
If you paste the contract address into the token search in your crypto wallet you will only get back one result: The actual, official QST token.
The QST token will not be hosted on the Solana blockchain permanently. QuStream is working with Ankr/Asphere to build out a dedicated QuStream Layer 1 blockchain for independent functioning. Once this is complete (anticipated in 2026), the QST token will be migrated to the new blockchain 1:1 (i.e., 1 Solana blockchain QST = 1 QuStream blockchain QST). In order to maintain your holdings through a migration there are typically steps each token owner needs to take.
