Pi Network’s Journey
The Pi Network has come a long way in its over six-year journey, culminating in a momentous transition to open network on February 20, 2025, at 8:00 AM UTC. Driven by the dedication of our pioneers, this achievement represents not only growth but also the commitment of more than 19 million identity-verified pioneers within the community. The shift to an open network signals a pivotal moment where users can fully harness the utility and potential of Pi, the native token.
What to Expect on Launch Day
On launch day, the Pi community can anticipate exciting new updates as we transition to an open network. This milestone allows Pi to integrate a real utilities-driven ecosystem, enhancing the overall experience and functionality of the cryptocurrency. With over 10.14 million mainnet migrations completed, exceeding our original target of 10 million, the groundwork is in place for an expanded and more inclusive peer-to-peer ecosystem. The core team has been tirelessly working in the enclosed network to ensure a secure environment for pioneers and developers alike.
Preparing for the Open Network
As we approach launch day, it’s essential for community members to stay informed and prepared. The enclosed network period has allowed pioneers to complete KYC processes and developers to create applications tailored for the Pi ecosystem. With the new mining rewards issuance formula introduced in March 2022, balancing growth and accessibility while rewarding contributions has become a priority. As the open network evolves, the Pi community will have the opportunity to engage with a cryptocurrency that is not just digital currency, but a versatile tool with real-world applications.
