PLS is the native token of the Pulsechain network, operating under the PRC-20 token standard, a derivative of Ethereum's ERC-20 standard. It is primarily utilized for transaction fees within the network. Furthermore, PLS holders can delegate their tokens to validators, thus participating in the network's security processes.
Pulsechain is a blockchain project initiated by Richard Heart, founder of HEX cryptocurrency. It presents itself as a fork of Ethereum, striving to deliver higher transaction speeds and lower fees. The network has a fee-burning feature, which was activated upon the mainnet launch on May 13th.
Pulsechain introduces a mechanism for PLSX, which utilizes a portion of trading fees from any asset to purchase PLSX and subsequently burn it. This process is intended to reduce the token's supply over time. Pulsechain also emphasizes environmental sustainability by substituting proof-of-work miners with proof-of-stake validators. The network additionally reduces the issuance of PLS by 25% per block relative to Ethereum.
Pulsechain offers a bridging feature, facilitating the exchange of assets between the Pulse and Ethereum networks. This is achieved by locking an asset on one network and issuing a counterpart on the other network at a 1:1 ratio.
Pulsechain was developed by Richard Heart, also known as Richard Schueler. Heart is an entrepreneur, author, and YouTuber, known for founding HEX. Through Pulsechain, Heart has reportedly raised over $27 million for medical research.
Despite its features, Pulsechain has faced criticism, particularly around the handling of funds and the role of Richard Heart. Some critics suggest that Pulsechain's sacrifice phase resembles an initial coin offering (ICO), with users sacrificing their coins in hopes of future returns. As with any investment, potential participants should conduct their own research and exercise caution.
