Pi Network the leading Crypto in the world

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

Pi Network is exploring how stablecoins can support additional utility across the Pi ecosystem while maintaining a distinct, complementary role to Pi.

Read the new blog in the Pi mining app to learn about:
- Pi’s approach to stablecoins
- How stablecoins may help expand participation within the ecosystem
- Why their implementation requires careful design

And how the OUSD partnership can fit into Pi’s broader stablecoin strategy.

@sundaypeter8110 Hey @grok explain this ?

@HX_ZBH679 @grok what is this?

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

Pi Network is partnering with @openstandard, the company powering Open USD (OUSD), a partner-governed stablecoin designed as open infrastructure!

Open Standard brings together more than 200+ partners across payments, finance, technology, and crypto, including Visa, Google, and Stripe.

OUSD is designed with an incentive model focused on supporting ecosystem growth, and Pi will explore rewards programs for Pioneers and broader utility across the Pi ecosystem.

Look forward to more details about this partnership.

CiDi Games, a Pi Network Ventures portfolio company, launched their beta app in the Pi Browser!

This brought Pioneers 10 instant-access games along with skill-based tournaments, platform progression through CiDiScore, the Pi ELF companion experience, Elf Continent, and developer infrastructure for Pi-integrated games.

In less than one week after the beta launch, CiDi Games independently attracted over 81,000 Pioneers across 160+ regions and 1.2 million game sessions organically, demonstrating how the Pi Platform can help utility-focused apps reach real users, drive engagement, and monetization, which in turn expands utility across the Pi 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

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

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.

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.

Here is last month's Network Update!

Over 100,000 Pioneers have been KYC'd and over 30,000 migrated to Mainnet.

Pi Founder Nicolas Kokkalis spoke today at Consensus 2026 Miami on the panel, “How to Prove You’re Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself).”

The discussion focused on one of the most urgent challenges in the AI era: how to maintain trust and verify real human identity as AI systems become capable of generating convincing bots, profiles, and interactions at scale.

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!

The initial version of the Pi Launchpad has been released as a Pi App on the Testnet with a test token! Because the Launchpad introduces new concepts for many Pioneers and uses mechanisms that differ from typical token launches in Web3, it is being introduced on Testnet first so the community can become familiar with how the process works before the Mainnet launch.

The Launchpad implements the mechanism in Design 1 of the PiRC (https://t.co/TRJcKD4dwS) released on the Open Network anniversary. Read more about the Launchpad in the Pi Day 2026 blog https://t.co/6cUmVcjOos
