Mainnet has been upgraded to V23$PI

The test network V23 has been successfully upgraded. Remember to upgrade the Horizon database.

This is last month's network update!
Over 100,000 pioneers have completed KYC, and more than 30,000 have migrated to the mainnet. $PI

Pi NetworkV23 Protocol Pi Scan Synchronization Update
Pi Network's recent mainnet major version upgrade features a comprehensive optimization of the underlying protocol, significantly improving network stability, transaction efficiency, and security performance. At the same time, the smart contract underlying support has been officially enhanced, laying a foundation for ecological dApps and on-chain application deployment.
The supporting block explorer Pi Scan has completed system updates in sync, fully compatible with the new mainnet protocol. On-chain data, transaction records, and node stat

Pi founder Cheng Chengdiao delivered a speech today at Consensus 2026 Miami during the panel discussion titled “Aligning Utility in Web3, AI, and Blockchain.”
Dr. Cheng shared how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, identity verification, and global participation network help power utility-driven products and businesses in the AI era.
Her remarks were based on a core challenge in the cryptocurrency industry: the frequent misalignment between token design and genuine innovation. Although tokens in the industry are often primarily used as fundraising tools or quick exit strategies, Dr. Cheng discuss

At the Miami Consensus Conference, Pi Network Lights Up a New Coordinate for Practical Web3
Inside the venue of the 2026 CoinDesk Consensus Conference, the Pi Network booth is outlined with its signature purple and gold tones, creating a unique profile of its own. As attendees pause in front of this screen, a dialogue about "Web3, AI, and Blockchain Integration" begins to unfold with a slow countdown.
On the electronic display of the booth, the speech information of co-founder Dr. Fan Chengjiao is clearly marked: "Aligning Web3, AI, and Blockchain for Utility"—In the morning light of Miami on

The founder of Pi will serve as a guest speaker at Consensus 2026 in Miami this week. Chengdiao Fan will deliver a speech titled "Aligning Web3, AI, and Blockchain for Utility" on Wednesday (May 6th, 11:15-11:35 AM Eastern Daylight Time, Convergence Stage), discussing Pi's blockchain infrastructure, identity verification, and how global participation networks support practical-driven products and business models in the AI era. Nicolas Kokkalis will participate in a panel discussion titled "How to Prove You're Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself)" on Thursday (May 7th, 10:15-10:45 AM

Network Update
The Pi Mainnet has successfully upgraded to Protocol 22
Next: Protocol 23 Upgrade
Deadline: May 15
All mainnet node operators must complete v23 upgrade before the deadline to stay connected to the network.
Note: This upgrade will take longer than usual—please plan ahead and do not wait until the last minute.
Stay tuned for detailed instructions.
Let's keep the network strong and operational. $PI

Exciting news, pioneers! $Pi BlockExplorer has confirmed that the mainnet is now officially running on protocol version 22.1! This upgrade marks an important milestone in our journey. The network is continuously evolving, with version 23 expected to launch in May and version 26 in June. The infrastructure is not only solid; it is also expanding and enhancing our capabilities. $PI

Most AI systems still require high-quality human input. Automated training can scale up. But it faces difficulties in: ambiguity, subtlety, real-world judgment. That’s why human involvement in the feedback loop remains important. Not as an alternative, but as a core layer. The challenge is not whether human input is needed. But how to obtain it: at scale, with high quality, from real people.
This is the bottleneck, and Pi Network has built a solution: a large-scale, globally distributed workforce of verified human participants actively engaged within the Pi ecosystem. $PI

AI companies can access Pi's human input infrastructure through the network, with over 18 million verified pioneer users, to improve models, tune reasoning quality, and expand data annotation and evaluation. Read the announcement to learn more about how Pi provides such services to AI companies, and share it with AI companies that might be interested!$PI

Everyone downloading Pi must make sure to use the official links or the Google Play Store and Apple Store; do not use third-party sources. $PI

Homepage Update Summary
Artificial intelligence is developing rapidly, but building reliable AI systems still fundamentally relies on deep human involvement. For companies that need to optimize models, improve reasoning quality, and scale data annotation and content evaluation, human labor remains irreplaceable.
Creating high-performance AI models is not simply achieved by stacking computing power. AI requires human intervention in the loop to optimize outputs, define quality standards, verify content accuracy, resolve semantic ambiguities, and ultimately ensure that AI systems truly serve

Pi network mining started in 2019, and $PI was listed in 2025.
After more than 7 years since mining began, the community still believes in and supports the project.
Are there any other mining applications that can match or surpass $PI 's record?
In fact, this is a reflection of consensus. $PI

Latest: $PI leads the entire mobile mining category with a market capitalization of $1.85 billion, accounting for approximately 95% of the total industry size of $1.94 billion $PI

I just saw a news report that over the past two years, agent( translated into Chinese as: AI workflow) has exploded, leading to a surge in AI computing power demand. Capital is currently speculating on AI and computing power( including major companies like Nvidia, AMD, and others).
We all know that our nodes will also be deploying AI computing power in this area. Ignoring the ecosystem and the intrinsic value of the chain itself. Looking solely at AI and computing power, our chain has unlimited potential. Because whether it's computing power, distributed storage, or running AI on decentralized

The founders of Pi will both take the stage as speakers at Consensus 2026! Dr. Fan Chengdiao will deliver a speech exploring Pi's blockchain infrastructure, verified identity, and how a globally participatory network can support utility-driven products and business models in the AI era. Dr. Nicholas Kokkalis will participate in a panel discussion on human identity and authenticity in the AI world. Don't miss the opportunity to meet these founders at Consensus 2026 in Miami for more information. $PI

Testnet 2 successfully upgraded to protocol v22! This upgrade was very quick.
The Pi blockchain has just taken an important step forward.
Testnet 2 is now running protocol v22, bringing us closer to a fully functional mainnet with smart contracts, subscription features, and real-world practicality.

Dear Pioneers, the Pi Network mainnet is undergoing Protocol 22 upgrade, with a deadline of April 27, 2026. Your Pi Node currently displays "Upgrade Horizon Database (required)", which is a necessary database migration step. Steps to operate: open Pi Node → switch to the "Actions" page
Click the blue text Upgrade Horizon Database (required)
Confirm and patiently wait (usually 5-30 minutes, do not interrupt!) $PI
