As some Pioneers may have noticed, affiliate badges have recently been assigned to the Pi Founders’ official X accounts. This helps you identify their only real accounts!
For your safety, always verify information through the official Pi Safety Center and official Founder accounts listed below.

Please remain cautious of impersonators, unofficial accounts, and misleading links claiming to represent Pi.
Unless a major global shock pushes the entire crypto market lower, it is increasingly clear that Pi is already at or very close to its bottom.
From here, fundamentals take over. Key developments such as the V23 blockchain protocol upgrade, new strategic partnerships, a Tier-1 exchange listing, and the tokenisation of real-world assets (RWAs) on the Pi blockchain...PIDEX/AMM..etc will organically and sustainably push Pi’s price higher over time.
I have been buying Pi, and I will continue accumulating whenever I can.
As always DYOR!

Why does Pi feel so different from other blockchains? Why does utility matter? Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan explains Pi’s emphasis on utility and how Pi distinguishes itself in the blockchain industry.
Pi Network has launched Pi Hackathon 2025, the first community-wide hackathon since the launch of Open Network! Developers are invited to build Mainnet apps that empower real-world utility using Pi and help shape the ecosystem—and compete for a chance to win up to 160,000 Pi in total prizes.
Register now, form a team, and submit a working app, demo video, and the required forms by Oct 15. Go to the Pi Developer Portal and use the invitation code “hackathon25” to get started!

Some pioneers are raising concerns about compromised wallets and stolen passphrases. These concerns are valid, and the Pi Core Team should take them seriously by working toward a robust solution.
My proposal: Implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for wallet access.
Accessing a Pi wallet using only a passphrase is risky—if the passphrase is stolen, anyone can use it to access and drain the wallet. Therefore, an additional layer of security should be introduced:
After entering the passphrase, the system should prompt for a fingerprint or biometric verification. This extra step would prevent unauthorized access even if the passphrase has been compromised. @PiCoreTeam@nkokkalis@Chengdiao
Node Version 0.5.2 was released on Pi2Day 2025! https://t.co/uKFVpUi0JK
Among numerous other updates, the Pi Node app was renamed “Pi Desktop” to be more general to include current and future integrations, including access to the Pi App Studio. Version 0.5.3 was released shortly afterwards to address specific bugs.
Has anyone applied for Pi Network Ventures funding? If so, did you receive any confirmation or update from the Pi Core Team? @PiCoreTeam@nkokkalis@Chengdiao
How is GenAI related to Pi Network? Why did one of two Pi Founders, Nicolas Kokkalis, participate in a GenAI panel at Consensus 2025? Answer on Pi2Day (6.28.2025)
