Pearl Rewards Miners for AI Math Without Proving Customer Work

Pearl miners earn the Pearl token (PRL) for proving matrix multiplication, but the network cannot verify that the calculations serve customer AI jobs, a distinction central to its useful-work model. Pearl is a Bitcoin (BTC)-derived network with an unspent transaction output (UTXO) design. Matrix multiplication combines rows and columns of numbers and is used in AI workloads. Miners choose their own matrices, and nodes can check the calculation without seeing its inputs. The protocol does not require those inputs to come from a customer’s model or inference job.
