Does anyone else feel that running AI models and agents locally, on your own computer, should be much easier?
The privacy benefits are clear: your data stays with you. But while there are many open-source models and projects out there, turning them into a usable local AI agent is still far too hard for non-engineers.
Pi2Day (tomorrow, June 28) is a moment to engage with new product releases and gain insight into the direction and priorities of the network.
Reminder: This year, Pioneers also have a timely opportunity to take part in app utilities expansion, community growth, and ecosystem development feedback before the events end tomorrow on June 28.
Participate in the two initiatives, the vibe coder campaign and Pi Launchpad Testnet token, now and stay tuned tomorrow for Pi2Day!

🎉 Happy #Pi2Day, Pioneers! 💜
Today isn't just another date, it's a celebration of vision, innovation, and the global community building the future together.
Every mining session, every app built, every line of code, every idea shared, and every pioneer who continues to believe contributes to something bigger than ourselves.
As a builder, I'm inspired to keep developing utility through projects like @EfeNexus, @EfeBuild, @efePiSwap, @efeStrategy, @EfePiCrew, @HouseOfEfeBliss, and many more that empower the Pi ecosystem.
To every pioneer: keep mining, keep learning, keep building, and keep believing. The strongest ecosystems are created by people who stay committed through every stage of the journey.
Happy Pi2Day! Here's to more innovation, more utility, and a brighter future for our global community. 🚀💜
Excited to announce the release of @EfeProtocol v2.0!
This update transforms @EfeNexus from a simple protocol into a community-driven utility infrastructure designed to support participation, digital commerce, rewards, innovation, and sustainable ecosystem growth within the Pi ecosystem.
What's new in v2.0?
✅ Clear Vision & Mission
✅ Governance Framework
✅ Compliance & Privacy Commitments
✅ Community-First Roadmap (2026–2035)
✅ Risk & Transparency Standards
✅ Stronger Utility-First Design
✅ Ecosystem Growth Strategy
For members of @EfePiCrew and Pioneers worldwide, this means a stronger foundation for future tools, applications, rewards systems, marketplaces, merchant adoption, and real-world utility opportunities.
Our goal remains simple: build useful products, empower communities, support creators and businesses, and contribute positively to the Pi ecosystem through transparency, innovation, and collaboration.
This is only the beginning. 🌍
Together, we're building for the long term.

Pi2Day (June 28) has historically been a time for ecosystem milestones, updates, and feature releases.
Last year Pi released:
- Pi App Studio
- Pi’s vision and solution to address AI-era challenges
- Ecosystem Directory Staking
- Node updates and Node ranking page
- And more!
Stay tuned on June 28 for what’s to come!
Reminder for all Pi Mainnet Node operators: The majority of Mainnet node operators have already successfully upgraded to Protocol v25. If you have not yet upgraded your node, please do so at your earliest convenience to remain connected to the network.
As with previous upgrades, the process is straightforward and should take only a few minutes to complete.
Details: https://t.co/ENIm1nuEHz
Ecosystem Directory Staking just got a new look and improved user experience!
Originally launched on Pi2Day 2025, staking through this feature increases an app’s exposure to the Pi community, resulting in more impressions and potentially more user traffic. By staking Pi, Pioneers can collectively support apps and services while developers and creators can promote their apps and tap into Pi’s 60M+ engaged community to acquire users.
The update prepares the feature for further utilization by developers, creators, vibe coders and Pioneers as more apps onboard to the ecosystem.
Note there are no rewards at the protocol level for staking, and the original staked amount will be returned once the staked duration has ended.
Go to the Pi home screen to learn more about Ecosystem Directory Staking and check out the recent design updates to the Ecosystem Interface.
🟣 EfePi News | Pi Network Update
🚀 Pi Ecosystem Directory Staking Gets a Major Upgrade!
The @PiCoreTeam has rolled out a refreshed version of the Ecosystem Directory Staking feature, introducing a cleaner interface, improved navigation, and a better user experience for Pioneers and developers. The updated Ecosystem Interface now makes it easier to discover apps across categories such as Mainnet, Services, Testnet, and App Studio.
💡 Why This Matters
• Pioneers can stake Pi to support their favorite ecosystem apps.
• Higher staking can help apps gain more visibility within the Pi ecosystem.
• Developers and creators can attract more users and engagement through community-backed staking.
• The improved design makes discovering utilities and services more accessible for millions of Pioneers.
📱 The updated interface also highlights top-staked applications, encouraging healthy competition and rewarding apps that provide real utility to the community.
🌱 This update reflects Pi Network's continued focus on building a utility-driven ecosystem where developers, businesses, and Pioneers work together to grow adoption and real-world use cases for Pi. Recent ecosystem improvements, protocol upgrades, and App Studio enhancements show that development across the network remains active.
🔥 @EfePiNews Take The new Ecosystem Directory Staking experience is more than a visual upgrade, it's another step toward helping quality Pi apps gain exposure, users, and community support. As the ecosystem expands, visibility and utility will become increasingly important for long-term growth.
Pi2Day (June 28) is approaching, and Pi’s vibe coder campaign will continue until that date! What exciting apps are you building ahead of Pi2Day?
Vibe coders (app creators using AI) can use Pi App Studio to easily convert their apps built through platforms such as Codex, Claude Code, Replit, Cursor, Lovable or other AI-assisted coding tools, into Pi Apps.
Pi can connect your AI-created apps with millions of engaged Pioneers, identity verification and Pi’s utility ecosystem.
Learn more and deploy vibe coded apps on Pi today!

We are proud to announce that @EfeShieldPi_NG is actively building to connect directly with government officials, security agencies, and all relevant rights authorities across the nation, linking straight to their official public social media accounts.
This direct connection ensures quick responses and removes any excuse of “we didn’t receive the news.”
As part of the @EfeNexus Pi ecosystem on the Pi Network (@PiCoreTeam), EfeShield π Nigeria is designed to create a secure, transparent, and efficient bridge between citizens and those in power.
Our Clear Mission:
To bring the latest verified news and reports from trusted Pioneers directly to the public and to the attention of the government for faster action.
How EfeShield π Nigeria is Helping Solve Insecurity:
- Empowered Citizen Reporting: Easily submit verified reports on Security Threats, Corruption, Fraud, Missing Persons, Terrorism Concerns, Public Projects, and more, with guided, lawful steps.

Let’s build the future we deserve, together!
This year is already speaking blessings into my life, and I’m grateful. 💜
April 28th, my birthday 🎂🎈, came with something powerful… the @PiCoreTeam announced its move into AI. That wasn’t just a date, it felt like alignment, purpose, and confirmation.
Now today, May 6th 🎉🎂, my son @RexBliss06 special day, the Pi Core Team is set to speak on how AI will transform everything within Pi. Another moment of purpose. Another sign.
This is bigger than coincidence. This is destiny in motion.
That’s why we are the BLESSED DEE-BLISS Family, building, believing, and growing through the @EfeNexus Pi Ecosystem. We don’t just celebrate moments… we connect them, we build from them, and we rise with them.
Today, I celebrate my son, my strength, my legacy, RexBliss. 💜🎂
And I celebrate the journey we are on with Pi Network 🚀
Join me to celebrate REX Day 🎈💜🎂
The future is bright. The timing is divine. And we’re just getting started.
Watch Pi Founder Nicolas Kokkalis speak in the Consensus 2026 panel “How to Prove You’re Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself)”.
The discussion focused on how digital trust and identity verification systems must evolve as AI makes it possible to generate bots, agents, and synthetic identities that closely resemble real human behavior at scale.
The panel explored a core question for the AI era: how systems can continue to verify real human participation without requiring unnecessary disclosure of personal information.
A key theme was that proof of humanity is context-dependent, with different systems requiring different levels of verification depending on use case and risk.
The importance of privacy-preserving design was also highlighted, ensuring verification can scale while remaining usable for real users.
As AI lowers the barrier to building and interacting online, the harder challenge may be connecting digital systems to real users, trusted participation, and meaningful utility.
Pi’s Layer 1 blockchain, identity verification, payments infrastructure, non-custodial wallets, smart contracts, and engaged global community are all part of Pi’s ongoing work to address that challenge.
