The Pi Mainnet is upgrading to Protocol 26. Deadline: Aug. 11.
All Mainnet node operators must complete the upgrade before the deadline to remain connected to the network. Details here: https://t.co/ENIm1nu6S1
Protocol 26 is a major milestone ahead of the final planned upgrade, Protocol 27. With 8 successful upgrades completed over the past few months, these final two upgrades will bring the network up to date with the latest protocol features, improvements, and functionality.
Happy Pi2Day 2026 Pioneers!
Pi Network is celebrating Pi2Day with new releases advancing Pi’s practical utility both within and beyond the Pi ecosystem, and across compute, AI, and identity.
By first providing useful services and resources for external third-parties—such as Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, identity verification, and large globally engaged network—Pi offers multiple unique incentives to not only use Pi’s services but also join and contribute to Pi’s existing ecosystem.
Head to the Pi mining app and read the Pi2Day announcement to learn more about the new SoloHost, Pi Sign-in, and PiVerify releases today!
Also, take part in the Pi2Day Ecosystem Quest to learn more about the new releases, test features, and earn a special in-app badge to commemorate Pi2Day 2026—and show it off!
Pi Network is more than a crypto project — it’s a movement shaping the future of digital finance. Future
Millions of Pioneers are building a new global economy together. ⛏️💜
#PiNetwork
Pi Network has over 60 million Engaged Pioneers.
For developers, that creates an important opportunity: How do useful apps get discovered by these millions of people on Pi?
Ecosystem Directory Staking was built to help answer that.
It is a decentralized way for Pioneers and businesses to actively support and promote the ranking of Pi apps and utilities in the Ecosystem Interface. Staking through this feature increases an app’s exposure to the Pi community, helping boost visibility within the ecosystem.
This feature provides a self-service avenue for developers and creators to use Pi to tap into the attention resource of Pi Network to acquire users.
As AI makes app creation easier and easier, the challenge shifts from building products to getting them in front of people.
Ecosystem Directory Staking improves ecosystem discovery, making it easier for developers and creators to connect with users, and easier for users to discover new apps.

The CiDi Games platform continues to make progress and has released 4 new games for Pioneers to experience!
CiDi Games, a Pi Network Ventures portfolio company, gives Pioneers new ways to use Pi through gaming, while also extending the Pi ecosystem with infrastructure that can support more games and developers over time.
Learn more in the Pi app.
Reminder: All Mainnet nodes are required to complete the Protocol 23 upgrade by May 15, 2026 to remain connected to the network. This upgrade takes longer to complete, so please plan ahead.

Pi Founder Nicolas Kokkalis spoke today at Consensus 2026 Miami on the panel, “How to Prove You’re Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself).”
The discussion focused on one of the most urgent challenges in the AI era: how to maintain trust and verify real human identity as AI systems become capable of generating convincing bots, profiles, and interactions at scale.
Stay tuned for the full video!
The Pi Founders are featured speakers at Consensus 2026 in Miami this week.
Chengdiao Fan will speak on Wednesday, May 6 (11:15–11:35 AM EDT, Convergence Stage) on “Aligning Web3, AI, and Blockchain for Utility,” exploring how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, verified identity, and globally engaged network can support utility‑driven products and AI‑era business models.
Nicolas Kokkalis will join a panel on Thursday, May 7 (10:15–10:45 AM EDT, Convergence Stage) titled “How to Prove You’re Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself),” exploring how the internet’s trust model is breaking as AI systems become capable of creating bots that can generate profiles and interact like real users.
Together, these sessions highlight Pi’s approach to the AI era: supporting utility-driven products and sustainable business models through blockchain, verified identity, and a globally engaged network, while enabling global identity verification and providing authenticity solutions through Pi’s native KYC solution.
See you there, Pioneers!
