$BTC fails in distribution.
$ETH fails in legit token creation.
$BNB fails in fair token listing.
$SOL fails in stability.
$XRP fails in mass retail adoption.

- $Pi solved BTC’s problem with a distributed-open network.
- $Pi solved ETH’s problem with utility-focused token creation.
- $Pi solved BNB’s problem with fair token listings.
- $Pi solved SOL’s problem with network scalability & accessibility.
- $Pi solved XRP’s problem with community-driven adoption.

Enough to leave a historic mark on the crypto world.

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

🚨 BREAKING: Testnet 2 has now been upgraded to Protocol v23.

The next step is the Mainnet upgrade, expected on or before May 20th.

Vibe coders and creators can now tap into Pi Network’s massive user base of over 60 million Engaged Pioneers by easily bringing their external AI-created apps to Pi’s real distribution network and utility ecosystem through Pi App Studio!

Creators, who may be technical developers or non-technical product people, can build apps using platforms such as Codex, Claude Code, Replit, Cursor, Lovable or other AI-assisted coding tools, and then use Pi App Studio to convert those apps into Pi Apps.

That changes the equation for creators.

AI can already help people generate apps quickly; the harder part is distribution and turning those apps into products people actually use.

Pi helps close that gap.

Instead of rebuilding infrastructure from scratch, creators can connect their apps to an existing ecosystem with users, payment capabilities, identity verification, decentralized human infrastructure and platform-level tools already in place.

This feature makes Idea → App → Users that much faster.

Because your ideas are too good not to be seen.

Try the Pi App Studio Now! If you’re a vibe coder or know someone building apps with AI who needs distribution, head to Pi App Studio today to convert AI-created apps into Pi Apps and access the Pi ecosystem’s users, infrastructure, and monetization opportunities.

Reminder: All Mainnet nodes are required to complete the Protocol 23 upgrade by May 15, 2026 to remain connected to the network. This upgrade takes longer to complete, so please plan ahead.

BIG: At #Consensus2026, Dr. Chengdiao Fan said Pi avoids copying existing token models because many Web3 problems come from those same models.

$Pi Network is positioning itself beyond the usual Web3 playbook.

Key points:

• Pi wants ecosystem tokens tied to utility
• Pi Launchpad is designed for community participation
• Pi is building directly on its own Layer 1 blockchain
• Desktop App Studio gives Pioneers tools to build apps
• Protocol 23 is set to activate on May 11

Pi is trying to make its next phase about apps, identity and utility.

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!

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.

Latest announcement on the Pi app screen
Pi Network founders are guest speakers at Consensus Miami!
Both panel discussions highlighted Pi's approach to the AI ​​era: supporting utility-oriented products and sustainable business models through blockchain, identity authentication and global networking, and enabling global identity verification and providing authentication solutions through Pi's native KYC solution.
Chengdiao Fan will speak at the Consensus 2026 Conference on Wednesday, May 6th, from 11:15 to 11:35 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.

As artificial intelligence (AI) significantly reduces barriers to product building, competition is increasingly focused on authenticating data, engaging users, and reliable human participation.
Chengdiao's presentation, “Combining Web3, AI, and Blockchain for the Benefit of the Community,” will explore how blockchain infrastructure, identity verification, and Pi’s global network can support utility-oriented products and AI-era business models.

This panel discussion presents a new perspective on cryptocurrency tokens, not as a capital escape, but as tools for sustainable growth and practical applications.
Nicolas Kokkalis will speak in a panel discussion at Consensus 2026 on Thursday, May 7th, from 10:15 to 10:45 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.

Pi is addressing one of the most pressing problems in the age of artificial intelligence: proving people’s true identities online.

The panel discussion, “How to Prove You Are Human in an AI World (Without Revealing Personal Information),” will explore how the model of trust on the internet is breaking down as AI systems increasingly become capable of creating bots that can build profiles and interact like real users.
