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.

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

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

Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan’s talk at Consensus 2026 was centred on a simple but important challenge:

The frequent misalignment between token design and real product innovation.

Her presentation, “Aligning Web3, AI, and Blockchain for Utility,” explored how tokens can be treated as tools that can support user acquisition, product engagement, and long-term utility.

One implementation of this approach is Pi Launchpad, Pi’s design for ecosystem tokens and launch mechanisms that aims to help products acquire real users who can engage, provide feedback, and use those tokens within actual product experiences.

As AI makes it easier to build applications, the limiting factor is no longer creation.

It is distribution and usage.

Pi’s approach combines blockchain infrastructure, innovative token and launch mechanisms, identity verification, and a large engaged network of real users to address that gap directly.

Enjoy the full talk & leave your thoughts on Pi’s approach to tokens and launch mechanisms!

Most AI systems still need good human input.

Automated training can scale.

But it struggles with:
Ambiguity
Nuance
Real-world judgment

That’s why human-in-the-loop systems still matter.

Not as a fallback. But as a core layer.

The challenge isn’t whether human input is needed.

It’s how to get it:
At scale
With quality
From real people

That’s the bottleneck, and Pi Network has already built the solution: the large-scale, globally distributed workforce of identity-verified human participants already active inside the Pi ecosystem.

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!

KYC validator rewards distribution continues to make progress in line with the previously announced timeline! Its design was finalized, implementation was completed, and currently the work is being tested. Testing is incredibly important, as it affects the distribution of Pi payments to KYC validators for their work in the KYC process of millions of Pioneers. The target remains deployment by the end of this quarter (March 2026).
