Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan spoke today at Consensus 2026 Miami in her session, “Aligning Web3, AI, and Blockchain for Utility.”
Dr. Fan shared how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, identity verification, and a globally engaged network can support utility-driven products and businesses in the AI era.
Her talk built on a central challenge in the broader crypto industry: the frequent misalignment between token design and real innovation. While tokens in the industry have often been used primarily as capital-raising tools or quick exits, Dr. Fan discussed Pi’s approach to treat tokens as tools that can support growth, engagement, and long-term utility.
Pi’s approach to ecosystem tokens and launch mechanisms focuses on tokens for user acquisition and integrating token design into the product innovation process. By using tokens to help products acquire real users who can engage, provide feedback, and use those tokens within actual product experiences, this approach connects token design more directly to utility and product development.
More broadly, Dr. Fan’s talk invited discussion on how blockchain can help shape AI-era business models, financial literacy, ownership, and socioeconomic participation. As AI lowers the barrier to building, the focus shifts toward something harder to replicate: real users, real participation, and trusted human input at scale.
Stay tuned for the full session video!
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.

Pi Network is excited to announce that second migrations have started and will continue with a gradual rollout, opening the door for Pioneers to bring additional Pi to Mainnet and further participate in the ecosystem! While second migrations roll out, first migrations for eligible Pioneers will continue as normal.
To be eligible for migrations, Pioneers must set up Pi Wallet two-factor authentication (2FA) through the Mainnet Checklist Step 3. This may include adding a trusted email address to their accounts if not set up yet. 2FA is enforced before migrations to enhance wallet security because transfers on the blockchain are irreversible and immutable.
Second migrations will also include referral mining bonuses attributable to Referral Team members who fully passed KYC. Pioneers should therefore remind their Referral Teams to complete KYC so these bonuses can be migrated.
My Achievement #PiNetwork..Post your badge on a social media platform (Fireside Forum, X, Instagram, etc.) using #PiOpenNetwork. After sharing, return here and submit your post link to enter the raffle.
💥💥The founder of Vitalik Ethereum shares the vision of his professor Dr. Nicolas, stating that (without real utility, crypto will die), understand that the Pi Network project is brimming with the potential for the best crypto, real utility + AI = DEX Web 3.0, Pi is bullish.🚀🚀
Pi Network and OpenMind have completed a proof-of-concept project where volunteer Pi Node operators ran AI models for OpenMind, proving it’s possible for Pi Node operators to run computations for third-party organizations. Learn more https://t.co/8nVMiFUzqT
**CALLING ALL GLOBAL PIONEERS: TAKE ACTION! - Post Articles**
Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend. We just wrapped up a successful Thailand GCV Industry Alliance conference, and I'm thrilled! Yesterday, I was busy writing and posting articles, and sharing all the good news.
Today, I'd like to address what our regular pioneers can do to help. We have GCV ambassadors and envoys, but what about the millions of pioneers out there?
You all have a role to play if you want to achieve Full OM quickly and read all of my articles. I've noticed more pioneers are reposting, which is fantastic, but it’s still not enough. Many pioneers read the information but do not post it.
Posting is simple, but it can help you realize your dreams faster. I also encourage reposting from Ms. Numari, Mr. Jojo, Mr. Jason, Ms. Nonny, and others who provide valuable information. Take responsibility for your own action!
This is crucial. I also encourage you to join more groups to share our content. If you have strong faith in GCV, have been reading my articles for some time, and truly understand the vision, I urge you to engage on Facebook. There are countless groups—probably around 10 million—that many pioneers are part of, yet they remain unaware of what is happening with Pi Network.
We have various social media platforms, including Facebook and Instagram. I encourage you to assess how many groups you are currently in.
So, for our pioneers, your task is clear: if you want to see GCV succeed faster, take action instead of waiting. Delaying this process will hinder our ability to achieve Full OM. I am confident GCV will succeed, but we need more pioneers to step up and act to expedite this process.
Achieving Full OM requires not only technological readiness but also economic readiness. Pioneers are working towards economic stability. If the price remains low, it undermines the ecosystem and affects merchants’ confidence in accepting Pi as payment.
Our goal for Pi is to establish it as a world currency, which necessitates global adoption and stable value. The exchange market is essential for global acceptance, while GCV focuses on stability. As the exchange price rises, more people will be encouraged to buy.
Please remember: the price is not directly related to Pi's value. However, a low price can delay our journey to Full OM.
Today, if pioneers desire financial freedom sooner, here’s your homework: invite fellow pioneers to our group and join additional groups if you have a solid foundation from the PIONEERS Handbook, especially on Facebook, to share our articles and information. This will assist them in preserving their wealth, boost the price, allow for ecosystem development, and meet the conditions required for Pi's Full OM.
Share our articles and insights with them, as pioneers need this information. By doing this, you will help many pioneers secure their wealth, change their lives, and expedite the OM process.
Thank you for being part of our mission. We are all owners of Pi, and we share the responsibility to make this happen faster.
Thank you!

Happy Pi2Day 2025! Today, Pi has introduced two exciting features to the ecosystem and provided various tech and product updates. First, Pi App Studio is an AI-powered platform that enables anyone to create Pi apps without coding—created to solve problems the world faces as AI advances, based on both blockchain and AI technologies. Second, Ecosystem Directory Staking is another platform-level utility that allows Pioneers and businesses to boost apps’ ranking in the Ecosystem Interface by staking Pi on the Mainnet blockchain.
Key other updates include a Node version update, a third-party onramp aggregator integration, the .pi Domains Auction extension, and improvements to Mainnet Migration. Pioneers can also join the Pi2Day Ecosystem Challenge to explore features to receive digital prizes. Go to the Pi mining app to learn more!
Remember to only use the Pi Wallet in the Pi Browser at exactly "https://t.co/VZxCSf4jD5” in order to safeguard your Pi. Learn more: https://t.co/g0AkxVRgkc
The authentic Pi Wallet is visually identified by a purple color in the navigation bar of the Pi Browser with a Pi logo featuring the Core Team apps logo. Caution—scammers may create fake Pi Wallet pages that appear the same as the authentic Pi Wallet on the Pi Browser but with misleading URLs to steal Pioneers' passphrase data and empty their Pi accounts. Since the Pi Browser is a browser like Chrome or Safari, it's ultimately up to the individual Pioneer to determine the safety and legitimacy of the sites and URLs they visit. Beware of scams using fake websites, fake emails, and misleading ads that imitate the Pi Wallet or Core Team members.
