Cryptocurrency investing has changed people's lives, for the better and worse. Recently, Bitcoin’s lifetime returns on investment rose as high as 80,000,000 percent. With such blockbuster returns in mind, investors are eager to find the next big crypto opportunity. However, they're also aware of the risk of crypto scams, and want to know what PulseChain entails before making a long-term investment.

PulseChain versus Ethereum

The PulseChain team has highlighted several features that it says set the project apart from Ethereum. The team says PulseChain will be more energy-efficient, faster, and cheaper than Ethereum. It's worth noting, however, that Ethereum is undergoing an upgrade that could resolve some of its current energy concerns.

Ethereum’s Ether token has no maximum supply cap, which creates the risk of inflation for holders. PulseChain’s official cryptocurrency is PLS. The project will eliminate PLS inflation risk with a token burn.

The PulseChain project is led by Richard Heart Hex, who was also involved in the Hex crypto project.

Before the launch, there will be a 30-day sacrifice period, where investors will have a chance to convert some of their crypto assets, such as Ether and Hex.

Where can you buy the PulseChain (PLS) token?

Since PulseChain hasn’t launched, trading of its PLS token hasn’t begun and details on its supply aren't available. When it launches, the token is expected to be available for trading on Uniswap and other small exchanges before coming to big platforms like Coinbase and Binance.
