Independent: runs its own node

Pearl, made visible.

Keshi is independent network intelligence for Pearl Network. Every block ingested by our own node, every figure published with the formula behind it.

What Keshi reveals

Three ways to look at one chain

Observe the chain

Live blocks, transactions, addresses, issuance and network health. Every figure is computed from Keshi’s own node and index, with its source and formula one tap away.

Open the explorer

Understand the work

PoUW work rate, difficulty, block cadence against the 194-second target, and mining concentration. All of them measured, windowed, and labelled for what they are.

See the dashboard

Build with confidence

A read-only JSON API with provenance on every payload, integer-exact money, and an independently operated node behind it. What Keshi shows is what the API serves.

Read the methodology

Every figure here was computed by our own node, from our own index. If a number has no formula behind it, Keshi does not publish it.

Network pulse

Work and cadence, one clock

The chain's heartbeat in two synchronized readings: how hard the network is working, and how steadily blocks actually arrive against the 194-second target.

How Pearl works

From matrices to a sealed block

Proof of useful work, step by step: what is claimed, what is proven, and what Keshi can honestly measure.

  1. 01

    Matrix workload

    A miner’s work unit is a batch of tiled INT8 matrices with deterministic low-rank noise, the same shapes neural-network kernels consume.

  2. 02

    Useful multiplication

    GEMM kernels multiply the tiles. This is where the electricity goes: matmul throughput is the security budget.

  3. 03

    Computational transcript

    Each result is committed with BLAKE3. Mining is the search for a tile whose commitment satisfies the consensus predicate.

  4. 04

    Winning proof

    A satisfying tile is wrapped in a recursive zero-knowledge proof: compact evidence of the work, without shipping the matrices.

  5. 05

    Block certificate

    The proof travels in the block as a versioned certificate of at most 65 KB. There is no nonce anywhere on Pearl; certificates replace hashing.

  6. 06

    Verified by Pearl nodes

    Every node checks the certificate before accepting the block. Keshi’s own node is one of them, and that is where these numbers come from.

EH/s on Keshi means matmul attempts per second: a difficulty-derived consensus measure, not a measure of AI computation performed.

Research

Attested model-weight mining, and how it ended

Every certificate commits to the weights it multiplied, and that commitment is recomputable from raw block bytes. A pre-registered scan hashed every shape-eligible block against published model checkpoints to find out which blocks committed to weights anyone can download. Some did, over a bounded span of heights early in the chain’s life, and then none did.

1,110

blocks committed to published weights

of 53,718 candidate blocks: 53,717 recorded by the scan as shape-eligible, heights 1 to the frozen tip h96,774, plus 1 added by the coverage-closure round, the round that also contributed the last match

0

matches in the negative control

of 840,000 control pairs drawn from 1,000 reused blocks; a single control match would have voided the run

05 Jun 2026

the last block that matched

block h68,332; nothing matched in the scanned candidate blocks after it, and blocks above h96,774 were never hashed

What a match establishes is narrow and worth stating plainly: the block committed to those exact weight bytes, and consensus verified sampled outputs computed from strips of them. It is not evidence that a model was run end to end, that any request was served, or that the arithmetic was fresh rather than replayed.

Economics

Supply as a horizon

A smooth-decay curve with no halvings: observed issuance plotted against the closed form, milestones marked where the tide will reach.

Emission curve

No halvings: the subsidy decays smoothly, so cumulative issuance is a curve rather than a staircase.

  • Theoretical curve S·t/(t+H)
  • Observed issuance
  • Milestone

Keshi’s headline supply number is observed issuance: the sum of coinbase outputs over canonical blocks. On Pearl a coinbase output pays subsidy plus that block’s fees, so observed issuance runs slightly above the theoretical curve.

Questions

Asked before trusting a number

Keshi is deliberately explicit about what its figures mean and where they come from. The short answers:

What is Keshi?

An explorer, dashboard and read-only JSON API for Pearl Network. Keshi runs its own pearld full node and its own Blockbook indexer, ingests every block itself, and computes every figure it publishes from that index.

Is Keshi affiliated with Pearl Research Labs?

No. Keshi is independent community infrastructure. Where its figures differ from official surfaces, the difference is usually the estimator window, which is why the window is always shown next to the number it shaped.

Why do your numbers differ from other explorers?

Published Pearl work rates for the same chain state have diverged by up to 26% purely from the estimator window. Keshi always displays its own window and never scrapes another explorer’s figure, so check the window before assuming either side is wrong.

Does EH/s mean AI work is being done?

No. On Keshi, EH/s means matmul attempts per second: a difficulty-derived consensus measure, not a measure of AI computation performed. Nothing on-chain proves a block’s matrices served a real workload, and Keshi refuses to blur that line.

What is proof of useful work on Pearl?

Miners perform tiled INT8 matrix multiplications and search for a tile whose BLAKE3 commitment satisfies the consensus predicate. The winning work travels in the block as a recursive zero-knowledge certificate. There is no nonce anywhere on Pearl.

Is the API free to use?

Yes. The read-only JSON API needs no key and no account. Every payload carries the anchor it was computed from, money is integer grains end to end, and what the site shows is exactly what the API serves.

Where does the market data come from?

CoinGecko, collected on its own schedule and never merged into chain metrics. A price-feed outage cannot affect any chain figure, and thin liquidity is disclosed right next to the price.

Why does the mempool differ from other sites?

Mempools are per-node by nature. Keshi shows its own node’s mempool and labels it as exactly that; other explorers legitimately disagree, and they are not wrong.
