An EVM-compatible blockchain, PulseChain forks Ethereum’s full state to airdrop PRC-20 token copies, delivering ultra-low fees and fast PoS confirmations with PLS gas.
PulseChain is a mainnet, EVM‑compatible Layer‑1 with native PLS that launched by forking Ethereum’s system state, creating PRC‑20/PRC‑721 copies of existing ERC‑20s/NFTs for instant app and liquidity portability. Its primary use cases are low‑cost DeFi (via the PulseX ecosystem), NFTs, payments, gaming, and cross‑chain bridging; as of 2025, typical gas is under $0.01, block times are ~10 seconds, capacity is in the hundreds of TPS, and on‑chain activity commonly reaches hundreds of thousands of daily transactions.
PulseChain is unique for its full Ethereum state copy at genesis—every ERC‑20/NFT was mirrored as PRC‑20/PRC‑721—plus 1:1 EVM/tooling compatibility that lets projects and users migrate with minimal friction. Compared to other L1s, it emphasizes ultra‑low fees and fast confirmations under typical load (sub‑cent gas, ~10s blocks, hundreds‑TPS headroom), enabling high on‑chain activity while retaining the Ethereum developer stack and wallets.
PulseChain uses PLS as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain PLS by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge PLS to PulseChain, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select PulseChain as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on PulseChain you can use thirdweb, which provides an easy way to build, monetize and scale your apps, games or agents. You can find detailed guides and documentation on https://portal.thirdweb.com to get started quickly.
To add PulseChain to your wallet, you can connect your wallet and click on [Add to Wallet] button at the top of the page. Alternatively, you can add the network manually using the RPC URL and chain details and add it to your wallet's network settings.
To send PLS on PulseChain, ensure your wallet is connected to the PulseChain network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of PLS to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
