Case Study: Qtum achieves lower cloud costs and faster blockchain updates with Looker

Qtum promoting an efficient blockchain economy with Google Cloud

Qtum, a decentralized open-source public blockchain project based in Singapore, needed a stable and scalable cloud platform to support its compute- and data-intensive blockchain workloads. The company also wanted better cost control, faster release cycles, and stronger analytics for tracking Bitcoin movements. It turned to Looker for data analysis capabilities as part of its broader cloud strategy.

Looker helped Qtum analyze large volumes of blockchain transaction data and support products that let users search the blockchain and track Bitcoin flows into and out of exchanges. The solution improved operational efficiency and visibility, helping Qtum reduce cloud costs by 30%, lower data transfer bills by 18%, and cut update publication time from two weeks to four days.
