A global economy backed by human life.

Proof-of-Life consensus: your heartbeat secures the network and mints the currency. No mining. No stake. Just life.

Why Pulse

Current systems depend on central banks, energy-heavy mining, or stake—leading to centralization, waste, and fraud.

Pulse uses biological scarcity: you can't forge being alive. Life becomes the anchor for consensus and value.

No mining farms

Consensus comes from verified human presence, not hashrate.

No stake oligarchy

Security scales with living participants, not capital.

Real humans, real security

Sybil-resistant by design: life cannot be faked.

How it works

From heartbeat to block in simple steps.

1

Heartbeat capture

Device captures and signs life signals (heart rate, motion).

2

Broadcast & verify

Nodes verify signatures, timestamps, and continuity.

3

Transactions

Actions are signed with a current heartbeat—life-backed only.

4

Pulse Block

Verified heartbeats and transactions form a block.

5

Proof-of-Life

Block accepted only if enough live humans contributed.

6

Commit & broadcast

Block joins the chain; rewards distributed; network syncs.

Get Started

Three steps to start mining with your heartbeat.

Step 1

Get a Smartwatch

Apple Watch, Garmin, or any heart-rate-capable wearable.

Step 2

Download Pulse

Get the Pulse app on iOS or Android.

Step 3

Start Earning

Your heartbeat mines PULSE on the Pulse chain — your own blockchain, secured by life.

Architecture

Device, Node, Block, Consensus, Chain, and Application layers.

Layer 1

Device

Sensors capture heartbeat, motion, temp; device signs data.

Layer 2

Node

Verifies heartbeats and transactions; propagates to peers.

Layer 3

Pulse Block

Aggregates verified heartbeats and transactions.

Layer 4

Proof-of-Life

Threshold check: enough live participants to accept block.

Layer 5

Chain

Immutable ledger of blocks; fork resolution by heaviest life.

Layer 6

Apps & Rewards

Tokens, identity, games, social—all life-backed.

Technical: heartbeat packet & transaction
heartbeat = {
  timestamp, heart_rate, motion: {x,y,z},
  temperature, device_pubkey, signature
}

transaction = {
  sender_pubkey, recipient_pubkey, amount,
  heartbeat_signature, timestamp, transaction_id
}

Proof of Life

Consensus = "enough live humans in this block." No voting, no hashing race.

Threshold

Block accepted if N_live ≥ N_threshold.

Weighted contribution

W_i = α·HR_i + β·‖M_i‖ + γ·Δt_i (heart rate, motion magnitude, continuous verification time).

Rewards

R_i = (W_i / Σ W_j) · R_total — proportional to your weighted contribution per block.

  • Sybil-resistant: fake humans cannot produce valid heartbeats.
  • Replay-resistant: timestamp and continuity checks.
  • Fork resolution: chain with highest cumulative verified life wins.

Tokenomics

Supply is biologically constrained. No machines, no idle staking — only verified human heartbeats mint PULSE.

Reward Formula

Ri = (Wi / ΣWj) × Rtotal

In plain English: Your share of rewards scales with your activity. More active heartbeat, more motion, longer uptime — bigger slice of each block.

Halving Schedule

Block rewards halve every 4 years (governance-voted), creating increasing scarcity — like Bitcoin, but anchored to biology instead of computational waste.

Additional burns:
• 0.1% TX fee → 50% burned
• Inactivity burns (>6 months idle)

Self-Throttling Inflation

Inflation is biologically constrained — tokens are only minted when real humans contribute verified heartbeats. As the network grows, inflation naturally decreases.

Starting Price: $0.01 / PULSE

Fixed during bootstrap phase (first 100M tokens from reserve). Dynamic pricing kicks in as the network grows — price rises with network health and participation.

Pulsing in

How anyone joins: connect device → sign heartbeats → get verified → earn and transact.

  • Get the app and pair your device (wearable or phone).
  • Create identity and wallet; keypair stays on-device.
  • Stream your first signed heartbeat to a node.
  • You're in — earn rewards and transact with life-backed actions.

First-user case: start the network alone (genesis); threshold = 1. Then invite others, referrals, airdrops.

Speed and security

Network is fast and secure at scale because it's backed by life.

Speed

TPS = λ · N_live^avg — throughput scales with active participants. At 100M users, theoretical ~1.8M TPS; inclusion ~5 s, finality ~15 s (3 blocks). Real-world caps depend on bandwidth.

Security

S = Σ W_i (cumulative verified life). P_fork = e^(-k·S_avg). More humans = fewer forks. Sybil-resistant and replay-resistant by design.

Device removal pauses your rewards; the network stays robust when N_total is large (see Pulsing in and Tokenomics).
