What the contract can do
PLS itself is not a token contract. It is the chain’s native coin, the way ETH is on Ethereum, and every transaction pays its gas in PLS.
To sit in a DEX pool, PLS is wrapped into WPLS at 0xA1077a294dDE1B09bB078844df40758a5D0f9a27: a WETH9-style contract where you deposit PLS, receive the same amount of WPLS and can withdraw at any time. The WPLS source is verified and has no owner or admin functions.
New PLS comes only from the consensus layer as validator rewards, while the base fee of every transaction is burned (the EIP-1559 rule inherited from Ethereum). Whether supply grows or shrinks at a given moment is a matter of chain data, not of the code — see how PulseChain works.
Who controls it
Nobody. WPLS has no owner, and PLS issuance and the fee burn are protocol rules in the official client code, not functions of a contract someone controls. A validator stakes 32,000,000 PLS.
History
PulseChain carries Ethereum’s state up to block 17,232,999. Block 17,233,000, dated 10 May 2023 22:52:51 UTC, is PulseChain’s own first block; production by its validators began with block 17,233,001 on 11 May 2023 at 06:23:15 UTC, and the client release announcing the mainnet launch followed on 13 May 2023. At the fork every ETH balance became a PLS balance 1:1, and sacrifice participants were credited PLS.
WPLS was deployed on 11 May 2023 by 0x30e22ab6e6B576e6A9c5dD73191237a9A5c72539 — the same address that deployed PLSX, INC, the PulseX v1 factory and the bridge.
Liquidity on 2026-10-19: about $2.5 million across PulseX pairs, the largest being WPLS against bridged DAI (about $618,000), USDC (about $598,000) and USDT (about $438,000). DexScreener reports at most 30 pairs, so this is a lower bound. About 176,000 addresses held WPLS.
Risks
Price volatility. pulsechain.com itself warns that almost every cryptocurrency falls 85–95 % at some point. When you trade WPLS, check the address above — tokens can copy any name and ticker.
Verdict
Passes all six trust criteria.
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.
-
Validator launchpad
launchpad.pulsechain.com
OfficialPulseChain
Validator deposits — 32,000,000 PLS per validator — into the deposit contract.
The same version also runs as an IPFS mirror and a self-host build.
Risk: Only for running a validator; a deposit cannot be undone from the interface.
-
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.
-
Official PulseChain bridge
bridge.pulsechain.com
Official PulseChain appPulseChainEthereum
Moves tokens between Ethereum and PulseChain, including the claim step on Ethereum. Its contracts are the only ones that mint and redeem eDAI, eUSDC, eUSDT, eWETH and eWBTC.
The same version also runs as an IPFS mirror and a self-host build.
Risk: 0.30 % fee from PulseChain to Ethereum; admin keys and validators are explained on the bridge page. HEX(eth) bridged to PulseChain becomes a different token, “HEX from Ethereum”.
-
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).
-
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).
-
Gibs Finance
gibs.finance
Third partyPulseChainEthereum
Ethereum ↔ PulseChain transfers through the official bridge contracts plus its own helper routers, which can pay an optional delivery fee to whoever completes the claim. Its BNB Chain route uses the Tokens Express bridge.
Risk: The helper routers are owned by a single key, which can rescue stuck tokens and set a validator filter. The interface source is private (releases are signed and served from IPFS). The BNB Chain route carries the Tokens Express risks below. HEX(eth) bridged to PulseChain arrives as “HEX from Ethereum”, a different token.
-
Tokens Express
tokensex.link
Third partyPulseChainEthereum
Ethereum route: the official bridge contracts. BNB Chain route: a separate bridge.
Risk: BNB Chain route: a separate bridge whose PulseChain contracts and fee manager are owned — and can be upgraded — by one key, with a 2.97 % fee in each direction (read on-chain 2026-10-19). Tokens bridged from BNB Chain are not the e-tokens, and HEX(eth) bridged to PulseChain arrives as “HEX from Ethereum”. Closed source, delivered in a deliberately unreadable form.
-
Liberty Swap
libertyswap.finance
Third partyPulseChainEthereum
Cross-chain swaps with Base, Ethereum, BNB Chain and Arbitrum, delivered from the operator’s own pools and relayers.
Risk: Its routers and signature contract are not verified, the routers are owned by a single key, and delivery depends on the operator. The app itself says the contract is in beta; contract addresses in its docs are stale (paused). Fees per its docs: 0.3 % in, 0.5 % out.
-
PulseChain Sponsor Bot (free gas)
pulsechainbridge.promo
Third partyPulseChain
New wallets that bridged in may get a one-time amount of free PLS for gas. No approval is asked; a claim for PulseX sacrificers asks only for a signature of a fixed text.
Risk: Anonymous operator; low risk, because it only sends PLS — still read any text before you sign it.
-
Vouch
app.vouch.run
Not linked by any official sourcePulseChain
Liquid staking: deposit PLS for vPLS, unstake and withdraw.
Risk: Everything is upgradeable by a 2-of-4 multisig; one helper contract is unverified and its role unknown; the deposit proxy shows as unverified on PulseScan. Code is public.
Listing a token is not a recommendation to buy it. Read the trust criteria and the disclaimer.
