How were these tokens chosen?
Every token was checked against the same six criteria on 2026-10-17: age on PulseChain, verified source code, no hidden mint or admin, at least $25,000 of liquidity, an active team and community, and no documented rug or exploit. Contract facts were read directly from the explorer and the chain. Liquidity of the smaller tokens was counted only in pools against WPLS and bridged stablecoins, from on-chain reserves.
What do the three groups mean?
- Trusted — passed all six criteria: PLS, PLSX, INC and HEX.
- Community-run — exactly two HEX-related families, listed by editorial decision rather than because they pass: the Maximus DAO family (MAXI, TEAM and the Perpetual pools BASE, TRIO, LUCKY and DECI) and the Hedron/Icosa family by PulseFusion (HDRN and ICSA). All of them miss criterion C4 — their liquidity on PulseChain is far below $25,000 — and C5, because no active team was evidenced. Their code is verified and has no owner. Each card and page says which criteria it misses — read the risks before anything else.
- Bridged assets — miss criterion C3 — tokens bridged from Ethereum through the official bridge. They are essential infrastructure, but their safety depends on the bridge, which is upgradeable and controlled by single-key addresses.
Why is a token I know not here?
Apart from the two editorially chosen families — Maximus DAO and Hedron/Icosa — only tokens that pass all six criteria, or bridged tokens that miss only C3, are published. A missing token is not an accusation of anything — most of the well-known tokens that are not listed fail only on liquidity. You can run the same checks yourself with the steps on the criteria page.
Where do the prices come from?
Prices are a convenience feed from DexScreener, refreshed in your browser; the value from the last site build is shown if the feed is unavailable, and no price is shown for bridged tokens. With pools as thin as the community tokens have, a quoted price can move a lot on a single trade. Each token page states the date and method of its liquidity figure. Neither is a signal to buy or sell.
