In the Pi Launchpad model, projects issue tokens as tools to acquire users for their applications and integrate those tokens directly into product functionality, such as access, payments, rewards, and governance.
Instead of being taken by the issuing project, the proceeds of Pi from their token launch go to a liquidity pool with the ecosystem token, which bootstraps a healthy liquidity foundation from the start.
For the SLICE test launch on Testnet, this results in a liquidity pool containing SLICE and Test-Pi. In addition to matching individual buyers and sellers through a traditional decentralized order book on the Pi DEX, the pool uses an automated market maker algorithm to calculate swaps based on the amounts of both assets it currently holds.
Learn more about how the SLICE liquidity pool works.

Join Pi’s vibe coder campaign ahead of Pi2Day (June 28)!
Pioneers can participate by joining relevant creator or developer communities and sharing why Pi may be useful for builders who already have prototypes or working apps built through AI platforms. Then submit your public post link in the Pi app for a chance to win Pi Network merchandise!
Wondering how to introduce Pi to vibe coder communities?
Posts introducing Pi can point vibe coders to Pi App Studio, explain how externally created apps can connect with Pi, and highlight the users, payments, ads platform, and broader infrastructure available through the Pi ecosystem.
Pi’s value proposition should be clear:
In the Pi ecosystem, vibe coders building web apps with AI can make their app accessible to 60M+ engaged users, and run their app on built-in payments, identity and ads infrastructure, by simply plugging their service or product into Pi Network.
You can also:
- Introduce Pi opportunities to creator communities;
- Describe how Pi App Studio makes it simple for vibe coders to integrate with Pi;
- Share statistics of organic traction Pi apps have received from the Pi ecosystem;
- Explain why developers and creators should explore Pi.

Big kudos to Mainnet Node operators for upgrading to v23.
Most major Nodes have now been upgraded, and the protocol is expected to move to v23 soon.
This was one of the most challenging upgrades to date, as it involved multiple subsystem upgrades and optimizations that required internal data reprocessing.
Protocol 22 -> 23, Ubuntu 20 -> 24, PostgreSQL 12 -> 16
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!
Network Update: The Pi Mainnet has successfully upgraded to Protocol 22!
Node operators, please ensure your systems are up to date and stay tuned for instructions regarding the upcoming v23 upgrade.
AI companies can access Pi’s human input infrastructure through the network’s over 18 million identity-verified Pioneers to improve models, tune inference quality, and scale data labeling and evaluation.
Read the announcement to learn more about how Pi can provide such services for AI companies, and share it with AI companies that may be interested!

Consensus Miami is getting a slice of Pi!
Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan will speak at Consensus 2026 on Wednesday, May 6, from 11:15–11:35 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.
As AI dramatically lowers the barriers to building products, competition increasingly centers on authentic data, user acquisition, and trusted human participation.
Chengdiao’s presentation will explore how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, verified identity, and globally engaged network can support utility‑driven products and AI‑era business models.
The session presents a fresh perspective on crypto tokens not as exits, but as tools for sustainable growth and real‑world adoption.
See you all there!
The first distribution of KYC validator rewards is now complete!
Rewards were calculated for over 526 million validation tasks completed by more than 1 million KYC validators.
This demonstrates the scale and capability of Pi’s decentralized human workforce worldwide in driving meaningful real-world outcomes, especially in areas that require human judgment and input.
To benefit from future KYC validator rewards and other decentralized work opportunities, become a KYC validator. Complete accurate validation tasks and join Pi’s decentralized workforce!

To complete first or second migrations, Pioneers must set up Pi Wallet two-factor authentication (2FA) through Step 3 of the Mainnet Checklist.
This step is required to further strengthen account and wallet security before real Pi is transferred, an irreversible and immutable blockchain transaction.
To complete 2FA, Pioneers may need to add a trusted email address if one has not been set up yet.
Over 119,000 Pioneers have completed second migrations of their transferable balances so far, as the gradual rollout continues.
Explore the full update below ⬇️

The Pi Mainnet is upgrading to Protocol 21 – Deadline: Apr 6. All Mainnet nodes are required to complete this step before the deadline to remain connected to the network. Details here: https://t.co/9VehO7hhj1
Since Pi Day 2026, Pi Network has continued its gradual rollout of second migrations and referral mining bonuses.
This opens the door for Pioneers to bring additional Pi to Mainnet and further participate in the ecosystem. Note that first migrations still take priority for the network to complete, and second migrations do not impact the rate of first migrations.

🔐 Update on the Upcoming Verification Process
We know many of you are looking forward to verification - and we’re stepping closer to that moment.
This process is designed to be structured, transparent, and fair, ensuring every qualified Human Node moves forward with clarity. Here’s how the flow will work:
Phase 1: Matching
You begin by tapping “Match Curator.”
An anonymous list will appear, and you can choose a curator to match with.
After selecting, you enter the matching state and wait to be successfully picked. Once picked, your application advances to the submission stage.
Phase 2: Submission
When it’s your turn, a strict 24-hour countdown will start.
You must complete and submit your documents within this time. Missing the deadline may move you to a later pool, delaying your progress.
There are 3 submission levels. After completing all required steps, you press Submit, and your status changes to In Review.
Phase 3: Verification Process
This is the last stage - your application will be reviewed carefully.
This process is more than a technical update - it’s a defining milestone before full verification rollout.
Prepare early. Understand each phase.
Be ready when your turn comes!

🚨LATEST: INTERLINK LAUNCHES VERSION 4.0.5 WITH BRAND NEW FEATURES
@inter_link has just announced the implementation of Version 4.0.5.
The main additions from this update are...
- A dedicated News page to help users keep track of ecosystem news.
- The 'Connect Social' feature, which allows users to link their social accounts within the InterLink app.
Connect Social: Upgrade Your Profile, Strengthen Your Presence
Connect Social is a new feature designed to standardize and elevate user profiles within the InterLink ecosystem.
By linking your Instagram, Facebook, X, and TikTok accounts directly to the InterLink App, the system gains a clearer understanding of your activity level and digital presence across platforms.
We encourage users to go beyond personal accounts and include profiles with strong followings or those actively contributing to InterLink-related content. This helps the system more accurately reflect your real influence within the network.
🔒 To ensure fairness and reliability, multiple signals are rigorously evaluated when assessing connected accounts.
⚡ While Connect Social is not mandatory, completing your profile plays a meaningful role in how your presence is recognized within the system. It enhances your credibility, strengthens your digital identity, and better prepares you for upcoming mechanisms in the next phase of InterLink.
Each connected platform contributes to your Human Credit Score (HCS), reinforcing your position within the ecosystem.
📲 Connect your accounts today to upgrade your profile and establish a stronger presence on InterLink.
