🤝 Pulsar Coin: A fast and secure savings coin

The ticker symbol for Pulsar Coin is: PLSR

Since its debut on Janurary 28, 2022, Pulsar Coin ("PLSR") has innovated to be a Fast and Secure Savings Coin on its own blockchain. At the present time, Pulsar uses three different mechanisms across both CPUs and GPUs to secure its blockchain: Proof-of-Work (PoW)-Curvehash, PoW-MinotaurX, and Proof-of-Stake (PoS). An additional mechanism using Masternodes will soon add a fourth layer of consensus to the Pulsar blockchain, further enhancing both security and confidence. Pulsar's goal is to be a Fast and Secure Savings Coin with 4x Security. As a savings coin, Pulsar stands to provide a postitive return on investment to its holders who stake their balance in their wallet as well as expand its reputation as an excellent store of value. Pulsar Coin offers both a Windows/Linux desktop wallet and a community wallet accessible in the official Pulsar Discord. In other words, participation in the Pulsar Ecosystem does not necessarily require a wallet to be running on your computer as any Discord member is able to generate a unique address on the Pulsar blockchain and conduct regular transactions using the Discord interface. PoW miners using the Pulsar Auto Exchange Pool effectively become exchange traders who further help support Pulsar's price on traditional exchanges with their mining effort: price support for PLSR increases as more miners contribute more hashrate to the autoexchange pool after appropriate mining software configuration.

💵 Investment Mining adds price support

More investment miners = increased hashrate = higher ROI

Miners on the Pulsar Blockchain receive PLSR rewards based on their Proof of Work (PoW) contributions, whether through CPU-mining like MinotaurX or GPU-mining using the Curvehash algorithm. These earned PLSR Coins can then be staked, offering miners the opportunity for additional rewards through the Proof of Stake (PoS) mechanism. This dual incentivization encourages miners to secure the blockchain actively while also allowing them to increase their holdings through staking, fostering ecosystem growth and sustainability.

Engaging with the auto-exchange pool transforms miners into exchange buyers, potentially earning rewards beyond the allocated percentages for Curvehash and MinotaurX. In this pool, miners use their hashing power to mine other cryptocurrencies, which the pool automatically exchanges for USDT on an exchange. The acquired USDT is then used to buy PLSR, stimulating price dynamics, generating public interest, and boosting trade volumes, thus enhancing the overall value of PLSR.

Miners receive their PoW mining rewards in PLSR due to the pool's active exchange-listed buy orders for PLSR, fulfilled by matching existing exchange-listed sell orders for PLSR. More miners contributing to the auto-exchange pool result in improved returns and higher coin prices, benefiting the entire Pulsar community of investors and holders. This strategy has proven its effectiveness in enhancing ecosystem dynamics and encouraging participation.
