Pi Network @PiCoreTeam joins RoboPay as a payment partner. Pi will be used to pay for robot services across the Fabric network.
RoboPay was built to enable AI agents to discover, hire, coordinate, and pay robots autonomously onchain, transforming robots from connected machines into autonomous economic actors capable of providing real-world services.
Today, that same infrastructure extends beyond AI.
Tens of millions of Pi users will have access to robot services directly through the use of currency that they already hold. Once available, the anticipated robot services may include requesting a delivery robot to bring groceries, dispatching a security robot to patrol a property, scheduling an inspection robot for industrial facilities, or interacting with humanoid assistants in retail and hospitality. Autonomous labor may become as accessible as any digital service.
This partnership marks a fundamental shift in how humans are able to interact with robotics. Instead of purchasing robots themselves, users will be able to simply purchase outcomes. Physical intelligence becomes an on-demand service that is discoverable, programmable, and instantly payable through a shared economic network.
By connecting humans, AI agents, and robots through the same payment infrastructure, RoboPay and Pi have created the foundation for an open machine economy, where autonomous labor can participate in everyday commerce alongside real people.
The future isn't just AI that can think. It's an economy where humans, AI, and robots are all able to transact, collaborate, and create value together.
Pi Network now has a Move-to-Earn Platform
STEPN PI (@STEPN_PI) has launched its next-generation Move-to-Earn platform for the @PiCoreTeam ecosystem.
The protocol promises to reward users with $PI for walking, while also giving out NFT sneakers for early users.
The app is live in the Pi browser, bringing real utility to the Pi Network ecosystem.
For the first time, OKX has made Pi available to millions of people in the US through its platform, adding another access point to the Pi ecosystem for US users.
Pi continues to expand its global network of Pioneers and partners, and strengthen ecosystem participation, utility, and real user adoption across the world.
More users. More usage. Stronger network
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
AI is creating a new wave of builders.
People are turning ideas into apps faster than ever before.
But most creators still face the same problem after building:
How do you actually reach users?
Pi App Studio can now help close that gap.
Creators can now take apps built with external AI coding tools and connect them directly into an ecosystem with:
60M+ engaged users
Integrated payments
Decentralized human workforce
Platform-level infrastructure
If you know builders, vibe coders, indie creators, or AI communities looking for distribution and real users, share this with them.
The next generation of apps will come from more people than ever before.
Now they need places where those apps can actually be used.

📢 StarX Network – Upcoming Slashing Mechanism Notice
We would like to officially inform the community that StarX Network will soon introduce a Slashing Mechanism as part of our preparation for upcoming ecosystem developments, including TGE and future listing plans.
⚠️ What Is Changing?
To maintain a healthy and active ecosystem, STRX balances from inactive accounts will begin to be reduced through the upcoming slashing system.
This step is being implemented to encourage active participation and remove inactive balances from the network before the next phase of development.
📅 Slashing System Goes Live
🗓 19 May
The slashing mechanism is expected to go live on this date.
📢 Important for Community Members
We strongly advise all users to:
• Stay active inside the app
• Continue mining regularly
• Inform referrals and team members about this update
• Encourage inactive users to return before the system goes live
⚠️ Once the slashing system becomes active, inactive accounts may begin losing their accumulated STRX balance.
🚨 Important Note
This system is part of the long-term sustainability and preparation process for future network expansion, TGE, and exchange-related developments.
Further details regarding inactivity conditions and slashing criteria may be shared in upcoming announcements.
