The Bridge
PulseChain ⇄ Ethereum, measured at its one door. Refreshed daily below.
The One Door
"The official bridge" sounds like a service; on chain it is one pair of contracts. Every bridged token names its mediator in its own code, and each side’s mediator names its twin on the other chain — a chain of pointers anyone can walk. We walked it on 2026-08-25: HEX from Ethereum, Wrapped Ether from Ethereum, and Tether from Ethereum all name one PulseChain home contract, and its declared Ethereum twin is the mediator charted here. The flows were then verified unit-for-unit against an independent reader of the same chain — HEX, DAI, WETH and USDC each matched to the cent.
That makes the bridge unusually auditable: deposits are ordinary token transfers into one Ethereum address, exits are transfers out of it, and nothing about the traffic requires trusting anyone’s dashboard — including ours. The addresses are in the diagram; the raw file this page reads is linked below the table.
The Last 24 Hours
| Token | Deposits In | Exits Out | Net (USD) | Transfers |

Priced rows use our own pool-derived feed; a row shown in units only is measured but unpriced — never guessed. USD totals cover priced rows only. Raw file: bridge-flow.json.
The Gas Column
A bridge can go quiet for two very different reasons, and Ethereum gas is how you tell them apart. Relaying a crossing costs the operator Ethereum gas; when gas spikes, crossings become uneconomic and the bridge pauses — economics, not breakage. So the reading rule is: relays stopped while gas is high is an expected pause; relays stopped while gas is normal is the state worth noticing. The current base fee rides the daily file and shows here: —.
This is the same force the Gas Floor page measures in pool prices, wearing a different coat: on both pages, Ethereum gas is the threshold below which economically rational activity simply stops.
What the Numbers Are Not
Honesty lines. The table reads ERC-20 transfers at the mediator, so raw ETH entering as "ETH from Ethereum" and PLS leaving via WPLS appear through their wrapped forms. The USD totals count only rows our own feed prices — the long tail of small tokens is measured in units and left unpriced rather than priced by guesswork. And a 24-hour window is weather, not climate: one large crossing can swing the net for a day without meaning anything about the bridge itself.
