Qortal aims to provide truly decentralized blockchain functionality through a code base written from scratch that will support a scalable infrastructure of various revolutionary new concepts.
Qortal's goals are to: 1) rebuild the Internet as we know it, 2) create a fair global trustless cryptoeconomic system, and 3) give the world a much-needed and truly democratic way to deal with some of the most commonly used Serve.

Qortal has its own token, QORT, which can both power on-chain services and serve as a digital currency.
Qortal aims to create an alternative infrastructure for the new internet, and one particularly important feature is the ability for e-commerce stores to host their websites on-chain and be able to accept QORT as a form of payment.
