Ethereum News Weekly Founder: Pearl's Development Potential May Surpass Bitcoin

2026-11-09 12:13

According to TechFlow, on November 9, Ethereum News Weekly founder Evan Van Ness said in a recent interview that Pearl is exploring ways to make mining computation serve real-world needs such as AI inference by introducing matrix multiplication into proof-of-work (PoW) mining mechanisms.

Van Ness believes the mechanism could enable data centers to participate in mining while running AI inference tasks with relatively low additional overhead, and use mining rewards to further reduce inference costs, creating a positive cycle. He also discussed Bitcoin's long-term security budget and said Pearl's potential room for development may surpass Bitcoin's.
