What is Pearl
Pearl is a layer 1 blockchain with its own coin, where mining is combined with computation for artificial intelligence. It is developed by Pearl Research Labs, which also runs a service for serving language models (inference). The mainnet went live in late April 2026, with the first block dated April 27. Wallets and the network explorer label the coin PRL.
Pearl uses proof of useful work. Bitcoin miners grind through hashes that have no value outside the network. In Pearl the unit of work is matrix multiplication on GPUs, the same operation behind training and running neural networks. A miner can multiply the matrices of its own AI workload, and every tile of the result doubles as a lottery ticket for the next block. The scheme builds on a 2025 paper by cryptographers Ilan Komargodski and Omri Weinstein. Verification requires reproducing the computation bit for bit, so the protocol only accepts certain GPUs; the specification mentions NVIDIA’s Hopper and Blackwell architectures. The node code grew out of btcd, a Go implementation of Bitcoin, and addresses start with prl1.
PRL pays network fees and rewards miners, and a bridged version is available on NEAR. The target block time is 3 minutes 14 seconds. Supply is capped at 2.1 billion coins and released along a smooth curve with no halvings; the code is set to issue half of it in about four years. What sets Pearl apart from Bitcoin, Litecoin and other proof-of-work coins is the design goal that mining energy is not wasted but serves AI workloads.
What it’s used for
- paying transaction fees on the Pearl network
- rewarding miners who combine mining with AI workloads
- moving value to NEAR through a bridge
Risks
- both the network and the idea of proof of useful work are very new: mining rules were changed through several forks in the first months, and security rests on a fresh cryptographic assumption
- mining is tied to specific NVIDIA GPUs, so the network depends on a single hardware vendor
- most coins have not been mined yet, and new PRL keeps flowing to miners, adding to market supply
Contract addresses
Check the contract address before you buy or send: fake tokens copy the name and ticker, but their address is different.

Questions
How much is Pearl worth today?
As of November 11, 2026, Pearl trades at $1.50. Over 24 hours the price moved −7.83%, over 7 days +2.65%. The price on this page refreshes automatically.
How many PEARL are in circulation?
375.0 M PEARL are in circulation. Max supply is 2.10 B PEARL, so 17.9% has been issued. The fully diluted value of all coins is $3.15B.
What is the Pearl all-time high?
The all-time high of $2.46 was set on October 21, 2026. The price is now 39.13% below it. The all-time low was $0.1399 (July 23, 2026).
What is proof of useful work?
It is a form of mining where the network is secured by computation someone actually needs instead of pointless hash grinding. In Pearl that computation is matrix multiplication, the core of training and running neural networks, and the results double as attempts to find a block.
How is Pearl different from Bitcoin?
Both use proof of work, and Pearl’s code is based on btcd, a Bitcoin implementation. But Bitcoin miners compute SHA-256 hashes on dedicated machines, while Pearl miners multiply matrices on GPUs. Pearl’s issuance declines smoothly with every block instead of halving roughly every four years as Bitcoin’s does.
