PulseChain is a layer-1 blockchain designed to offer faster, cheaper transactions and improved scalability compared to Ethereum. It is a fork of the Ethereum network, meaning it replicates the entire Ethereum state, including token balances and smart contracts. PulseChain uses a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus model to reduce energy consumption and transaction costs. It aims to enhance DeFi, NFTs, and other decentralized applications (dApps) while providing an accessible and efficient blockchain ecosystem for users and developers.
