The recent launch of PulseChain has created a buzz among the cryptocurrency community, igniting excitement and anticipation. Since Rubic is trying to keep up with the latest innovations in the market, we are thrilled to announce the integration of PulseChain into the Rubic App.

To push this integration forward, POWERCITY (PortalX Aggregator) and Rubic are starting an exciting joint Galxe campaign. Get ready to receive additional bonuses for your swaps! Participants in the campaign will activate their wallets on PulseChain and can become eligible for potential $PLS/$WATT/$RBC airdrops.

PulseChain: Unveiling Potential

PulseChain has emerged as a highly anticipated and widely-discussed blockchain, capturing the attention of crypto enthusiasts. Positioned as an innovative blockchain ecosystem, PulseChain aims to surpass Ethereum in terms of user experience.

In simple terms, PulseChain can be described as an Ethereum hard-fork, incorporating a snapshot of the entire Ethereum blockchain into a Proof-of-Stake framework. This adaptation allows PulseChain to offer faster transaction times and lower fees.

While Ethereum serves as the biggest platform for developing dApps, its high fees and slow transactions have necessitated the emergence of networks that try to solve these problems, for example, Cardano, Tron, Polygon, and Solana, among others.

However, PulseChain offers a unique approach, being a hard fork of the Ethereum blockchain, as it copies the ERC20 tokens from the Ethereum chain and integrates them into its own network. This groundbreaking move allows PulseChain to mirror and leverage the existing Ethereum network while introducing notable enhancements.

Key Benefits of PulseChain:

Lower Gas Fees: PulseChain offers significantly lower gas fees compared to the Ethereum network.

Faster Transaction Times: Transactions on PulseChain are expected to be completed in less than 4 seconds, a considerable improvement over Ethereum’s average of 13 seconds.

Ethereum User Enrichment: By providing a snapshot of the Ethereum blockchain, PulseChain ensures that Ethereum users receive a copy of their ETH holdings.

Although the PulseChain mainnet was launched just recently, it is already in the Top 10 list of blockchains by TVL on DefiLlama.

We’re adding Pulsechain via ChangeNOW, and with more bridges appearing we’re planning to add other providers to ensure smart routing.

PulseX: the Biggest DEX on PulseChain Integrated into POWERCITY PortalX + Rubic

PulseX is the PulseChain-native DeFi exchange application, allowing users to exchange tokens with each other on PulseChain.

PulseX is a Uniswap fork with PLSX Liquidity Provider incentivization. Its goal is to provide PulseChain users with the best possible trading experience and yield farms with a strong focus on incentivizing ERC20 holders, to bridge in and back the value of their free PRC20s.

PulseX enables you to exchange tokens (“PRC20s”) on PulseChain for one another. For example, you could swap PulseChain’s native token PLS for PulseX’s token PLSX.

The POWERCITY team in collaboration with Rubic, integrated PulseX to provide users with fast and cheap swaps on PulseChain. Next week, the teams are planning to integrate more DEXs within the PulseChain ecosystem.

Please note that cheating is discouraged. The teams are free to disqualify wallets that they find suspicious of cheating.

IMPORTANT NOTE.

To successfully execute cross-chain swaps FROM the PulseChain and on-chain swaps on the PulseChain network at https://app.rubic.exchange/, it is necessary to establish a VPN connection if you implement swaps from Russia.

In case of cross-chain swaps TO the PulseChain network via ChangeNOW, a VPN connection is not required.

The same is true while implementing swaps on the PulseX platform.

This will help developers easily make their Web3 dApps cross-chain, regardless of what their function is.

Right now, Rubic aggregates 60+ major blockchains, 90+ DEXs and bridges, and enables swapping of 15,500+ assets with the best rates, highest liquidity, and transaction speeds — in one click. Users can do it on https://app.rubic.exchange, but we also provide tools for dApps to enable cross-chain swaps (https://tools.rubic.exchange).

On top of that, Rubic’s app and our cross-chain widget provide fiat on-ramp services, making crypto easy to access and buy.

About PulseChain

Pulsechain is a layer-1 blockchain created by Richard Heart, the founder of HEX. Pulsechain raised billions of dollars in an initial coin offering (ICO), or what it termed a “sacrifice,” to improve upon Ethereum’s value proposition. It claims to enrich ETH users by giving them a free copy of their tokens and NFTs on the Pulse network. Pulsechain also claimed to be more environmental-friendly than Ethereum, although that point has been irrelevant since Ethereum’s switch to proof-of-stake.

About POWERCITY / PortalX

POWERCITY is an ecosystem of projects designed to improve PulseChain for the community. PortalX is a cryptocurrency bridge and decentralized exchange aggregator that enables seamless trades between blockchains. The cross-chain router is specifically designed to simplify the process for end users and minimize the number of transactions required to swap between tokens on the same or other blockchains. As an all-in-one swap protocol, PortalX provides a comprehensive solution for cross-chain trading interoperability.
