To open the Testnet subscription smart contract to technical review and community feedback, Pi has released the second Pi Request for Comment (PiRC2).

Developers are encouraged to try integrating subscriptions in their own apps, review the subscription contract design, and test for bugs or edge cases, if any.

Pi is tackling one of the most urgent problems in the AI era: proving real human identity online.

Pi Founder Nicolas Kokkalis will speak on a panel at Consensus 2026 on Thursday, May 7, from 10:15-10:45 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.

The session, “How to Prove You're Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself),” explores 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.

At the core of the discussion is a simple challenge: how do you verify a real human online without exposing private identity data?

Want to know how? Join us in Miami on May 7th!

See you there!

There are over 18 million identity-verified users on Pi.

But there is one clear difference between Pi’s users and others.

1 million verified users on Pi ≠ 1 million users on other networks.

Most networks measure growth in accounts.

Few measure it in verified users.

There’s a difference.

Pi recognized the importance of identity verification early on and that unverified account creation is simply not enough. Verified identities are needed for any meaningful transactions, especially in real-world economies.

Any time an asset (like crypto, fiat currency, property, etc.) is transferred, it raises a basic question of identity: who is sending it, and who is receiving it. If those identities aren’t clear, it becomes difficult to trust that the transfer is valid or that it went to the right person.

Therefore, Pi Network has built a fully KYC-verified Mainnet ecosystem.

Because when users are verified:

Spam drops.

Trust increases.

Utility becomes more reliable.

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

Pi Network has released an RPC server, currently available on Testnet, supporting the development, testing, and future deployment of smart contracts within the Pi ecosystem.

The RPC server enables developers to build responsive applications, test contract behavior, and integrate services using real-time blockchain data.

Node operators and third-party services can also run their own RPC servers.

Read the blog to learn more, and explore the RPC capabilities as a developer.

Consensus Miami is getting a slice of Pi!

Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan will speak at Consensus 2026 on Wednesday, May 6, from 11:15–11:35 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.

As AI dramatically lowers the barriers to building products, competition increasingly centers on authentic data, user acquisition, and trusted human participation.

Chengdiao’s presentation will explore how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, verified identity, and globally engaged network can support utility‑driven products and AI‑era business models.

The session presents a fresh perspective on crypto tokens not as exits, but as tools for sustainable growth and real‑world adoption.

See you all there!

[Pi Update @CoreNews_2]

To complete first or second migrations, Pioneers must set up Pi Wallet two-factor authentication (2FA) through Step 3 of the Mainnet Checklist.

This step is required to further strengthen account and wallet security before real Pi is transferred, an irreversible and immutable blockchain transaction.

To complete 2FA, Pioneers may need to add a trusted email address if one has not been set up yet.

Pi Testnet now has an RPC server.

This is a major step toward Smart Contracts being simulated, tested, and deployed.

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

The Pi Mainnet is upgrading to Protocol 21 – Deadline: Apr 6. All Mainnet nodes are required to complete this step before the deadline to remain connected to the network. Details here: https://t.co/9VehO7hhj1

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

Since Pi Day 2026, Pi Network has continued its gradual rollout of second migrations and referral mining bonuses.

This opens the door for Pioneers to bring additional Pi to Mainnet and further participate in the ecosystem. Note that first migrations still take priority for the network to complete, and second migrations do not impact the rate of first migrations.

As announced on Pi Day 2026, the initial version of the Token Launchpad has been released as a Pi App on the Testnet with a test token! Watch the video walkthrough to learn the implemented design in action, and read the blog—originally published in the Pi Day announcement—to understand its deeper meaning. https://t.co/tHRFMspF5x

Pi believes financial literacy is necessary for people to live in an AI-pervasive economy, so Pioneers should start learning today by testing the Testnet Launchpad app through the Pi Browser.

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

The Pi Mainnet has successfully upgraded to Protocol 20, laying the foundation for supporting smart contracts. Node operators, please ensure your systems are up to date and stay tuned for instructions regarding the upcoming v21 upgrade.

[Pi Network @PiCoreTeam]

All major Pi nodes have now been upgraded to version 20.2 and are supporting protocol 20. Pi has also completed the upgrade of its Mainnet blockchain to protocol 20.

Protocol 20 provides the foundation to enable smart contract capabilities, and the rollout of smart contracts will occur gradually, prioritizing categories that align with utility-based product innovation and operations. The specific types of smart contracts featured will depend heavily on the needs arising from the utility creation process.

Pi Network is excited to announce that second migrations have started and will continue with a gradual rollout, opening the door for Pioneers to bring additional Pi to Mainnet and further participate in the ecosystem! While second migrations roll out, first migrations for eligible Pioneers will continue as normal.

To be eligible for migrations, Pioneers must set up Pi Wallet two-factor authentication (2FA) through the Mainnet Checklist Step 3. This may include adding a trusted email address to their accounts if not set up yet. 2FA is enforced before migrations to enhance wallet security because transfers on the blockchain are irreversible and immutable.

Second migrations will also include referral mining bonuses attributable to Referral Team members who fully passed KYC. Pioneers should therefore remind their Referral Teams to complete KYC so these bonuses can be migrated.

Nearly 2.5 million Pioneers in certain regions are unblocked by a new technical update to migrate to Mainnet, if they’ve completed the Mainnet Checklist and are active in mining. Over 700,000 additional accounts can also soon submit KYC applications! With these updates, more people are able to participate in the Mainnet ecosystem. Pi has reached 16 million Mainnet migrated Pioneers overall, distinguishing Pi as a massive identity-verified blockchain. Complete your KYC and Mainnet Checklist steps as needed to ensure your account is prepared for next steps.
