What the contract can do
A Maximus Perpetual pool. During the first 21-day mint phase in September 2022 anyone could mint 1 pool token per HEX; the pool then staked all its HEX for a fixed length. When a stake ends, a 7-day reload phase opens: tokens can be burned to redeem HEX, or new HEX can join, at the new redemption rate (the pool’s HEX divided by the token supply). Then the next stake starts and the cycle repeats. Anyone can start or end a stake. Half of the extra HEX the pool earns from HEX’s size bonus goes to TEAM stakers.
Who controls it
Nobody — no owner or admin functions. The pool was deployed by the TEAM contract; all four pools run the same bytecode, identical on Ethereum and PulseChain. The team is pseudonymous and no person is publicly sourced.
History
Created on Ethereum on 5 September 2022 (block 15,476,328) by the TEAM contract; on PulseChain since the fork in May 2023. Its first stake is still running on both chains: 565,991,987.73 HEX staked on HEX day 1,030 (28 September 2022), ending on day 4,726 (10 November 2032). Supply: 565,991,987.73 DECI. 3,027 holders on PulseChain on 2026-10-19. Audit: SourceHat “MaximusTeam” (see TEAM).
Risks
Very thin liquidity: about $736 in pools against WPLS at block 27,837,276 (2026-10-19 12:30 UTC); about $17,100 including pools against HEX and PLSX. Redeeming for HEX is possible only after the stake ends in November 2032. Its value follows HEX on PulseChain.
Verdict
Community-run, listed by editorial decision. Misses C4 (liquidity far below $25,000) and C5 (no team activity evidenced since early 2023). Age, verified code, no admin and no documented rug pass.
Where to use it
Interfaces that call these contracts, checked on 2026-10-19 — official ones first. A listing is not an endorsement: open apps from a bookmark, check the domain before you connect a wallet and read the risk line. Domains to avoid and what to do when an app is down: Interfaces.

OfficialPulseChainEthereum
Mint or reload BASE, TRIO, LUCKY and DECI with HEX in the reload window, redeem them for HEX after a stake ends, start or end a pool’s HEX stake and mint its HDRN (anyone may trigger these), and stake in the Diamond Hands Club.
Risk: The four Diamond Hands reward-distribution contracts are not verified on PulseScan, Etherscan or Ethereum Blockscout. BASE’s stake on PulseChain ends on HEX day 2,533 (9 November 2026): someone has to end it before the reload window opens.

PulseX app
app.pulsex.com
Official PulseX appPulseChain
Swaps, PLS ↔ WPLS wrapping, liquidity on PulseX v1, v2 and the eDAI/eUSDC/eUSDT stable pool, INC farms (deposit, withdraw, harvest, emergency withdraw) and the buy-and-burn page.
The same version also runs as an IPFS mirror and a self-host build.
Risk: Copycat PLSX and INC tokens exist — add tokens to your wallet by address only. The burn page’s conversion can be triggered only by whitelisted callers.

PulseScan — Read and Write contract
scan.pulsechain.com
Official PulseChain appPulseChain
Read contract, Write contract and Write proxy for every verified contract once you connect a wallet. It is the fallback when an app is down, and the only interface for some functions: the Maximus Mystery Box and escrow, MAXI’s own stake end, and the Hedron/Icosa liquidation auctions.
The same version also runs as an IPFS mirror and a self-host build.
Risk: Raw calls with no safety net: wrong units or a mistyped address cannot be undone. There is no Write tab for unverified contracts — eWBTC, “HEX from Ethereum”, the four Diamond Hands reward-distribution contracts and the ProveX escrow (verified on Sourcify only).

Look Into Maxi

Third partyPulseChainEthereumread-only
Read-only analytics for the Maximus tokens.
Risk: Wrong addresses in its configuration: its INC and PLSX point to addresses with no contract, and its “pTRIO” is the bridged TRIO. Do not copy addresses from it.

Piteas
app.piteas.io
Third partyPulseChain
DEX aggregator: routes swaps through PulseX and other exchanges via its own router.
Risk: The executor contract is not verified; the router’s owner — a single key — can pause it and change the executor. The fee is built into the quote (about 0.12 % on average, per its docs). Router audited by SolidProof (2023).
Listing a token is not a recommendation to buy it. Read the trust criteria and the disclaimer.
