🚨 Strange scam activity reported involving a Pi Wallet.... A user's 3-year lockup period ended yesterday. When he went to migrate his 143 $PI, he discovered his wallet balance was 0 PI, along with an unlimited number of failed transactions. It's time for Google Authenticator (2FA) or another strong authentication method to become mandatory for Pi Wallets. Pi Network, please investigate this matter ASAP and strengthen Pi Network wallet security to protect Pioneers.show more

🚨INSIGHT: PI NETWORK EXPLORES PALM PRINT VERIFICATION IN KYC... Pi Network will explore palm print verification in KYC for additional authentication. According to the protocol's blog post, it will be testing palm print authentication as a beta feature to explore its potential use within its blockchain network. "For Pioneers who already require multiple face liveness checks or identity re-checks, palm prints could potentially be used as part of broader authentication and security flows." The feature could also be potentially used in future applications, including identity verification, password resets, 2FA, and other security-related use cases. Pi Network plans to roll out the beta feature in Pi KYC to a subset of Pioneers. What do you make of it?show more

Pi is going to pay for robots Pi Network... (Pi Network) has joined RoboPay as a payment partner, with $PI set to be used for robot services across the Fabric network (Fabric Foundation). RoboPay was built so AI agents can discover, hire and pay robots autonomously onchain, and this deal extends that same rail to tens of millions of Pi holders. Once services go live, the vision includes summoning delivery robots for groceries, dispatching security patrols, or booking industrial inspections, all paid in the currency Pioneers already hold. Fabric calls it the foundation of an open machine economy where humans, AI and robots transact side by side.show more

In Pi Network community Pioneers is a very important... one. Actually right now all merchants in barter are pioneer! Please don't make pioneers and merchants in a opposite position. They have same interest. The reason many merchant in China provide a lot products to barter is because they want their pi in hands reach GCV and they believe only this price can make Pi successful! If nobody contributes to Pi Eco especially barter how can Eco succeed? They don't support low price is because they understand Pi very well. It will be harvested by crypto whales and it will damage Pi and make pi in dangerous positions if use low price. I believe all pioneers want Pi high price. This is common sense! If you hold a crypto or stock, do you want them high price or low price? You want it low price only when you want to buy ? Is it right! So it can explain anything why some against GCV. However I suggest every one be smart. Now it's time to change to GCV. I believe you hold a lot of pi during close mainnet with different methods. You want more is because you believe pi worth a lot. From now on, no matter what you did before, it's time to unite together to support GCV! Because it is best interest for all Pi Network community! Pi Network #WhatIDoForPi #PiGCVshow more

Thanks to Mr. Woody Lightyear from Africa Nigeria and... Dr. Gharbi Ahmed from Arabic Tunisia extraordinary leadership and hardworking! Also thanks to Chinese community leaders, merchants, pioneers inspiration and real barter huge amount transactions to support GCV ! Thanks to the global community leaders and pioneers support! Now GCV has been acknowledged by most Pi Network global communities and gained a lot of support! Newsway Founded in 2014 by T.I UKENDE, It states:" NEWSWAY can offer you Verifiable information on Blockchain technology and digital assets. We now serve customers all over the world, and are thrilled that we’re able to turn our passion into a well recognized website." The following is today's article passed all over the world Pi Network community from US expertise freelancer Ms. Grace Owell. Thanks to her excellent outstanding article which can see her sharpness and insight to the crypto currency world and understand the Pi Network mission very well!👍👍👍 Pi Network’s Global Consensus Value (GCV) has been making headlines lately, thanks to the initiators who have proposed an amazing price to the Pi community. The supporters of Global Consensus GCV Price have been praised for their efforts in bringing this proposal forward. The GCV builders have worked hard to come up with a fair and reasonable price for the Pi community, and their hard work has paid off. The proposed GCV price of $314159 has received overwhelming support from the community and has been hailed as a significant milestone for the Pi Network. The GCV price proposal is an important development for the Pi Network, as it establishes a standard value for the Pi currency. This value will help the Pi community to measure the worth of their holdings and make informed decisions about buying and selling Pi. The Pi Network’s Global Consensus Value (GCV) is a revolutionary pricing mechanism that is designed to be transparent, fair, and reflective of the true value of Pi cryptocurrency. The GCV price takes into account various key metrics, including the mathematical value for π, user adoption, network usage, and other relevant factors, to determine a fair value for Pi. By using a comprehensive and transparent pricing mechanism, the Pi Network aims to build confidence among users and investors, while also promoting greater adoption of the Pi cryptocurrency. Importance of the Global Consensus Value (GCV) Price Here are some of the key importance of the GCV Price: Standardized Value: The GCV price establishes a standardized value for the Pi cryptocurrency, which helps users to measure the worth of their holdings and make informed decisions about buying and selling Pi. Fairness and Transparency: The GCV price mechanism is designed to be fair and transparent, taking into account various metrics such as user adoption, network usage, and market demand. This builds confidence in the Pi Network among users, investors, and regulators. Increased Adoption: A trustworthy and reliable GCV price can attract more users and investors to the Pi Network, leading to greater adoption of the Pi cryptocurrency and increased usage of the network. Long-Term Stability: A stable and reliable GCV price can help to build a more stable and long-term ecosystem for the Pi Network, ensuring its success and growth over the long run. Integration with Wider Financial Markets: A standardized and transparent GCV price can help the Pi cryptocurrency to be more widely accepted and integrated into the wider financial markets, providing greater opportunities for its use and adoption. The Pi community has responded positively to the GCV price proposal, with many users expressing their support for the proposed Pi Network remains strong and stable. The Global Consensus Value is an important step forward for the Pi community, and it is a sign of the network’s growing maturity and stability. Pi Network #PIGCV #PiNetworkshow more

**Congratulations to Chinese Pioneers Purchasing Cars via Full Pi... Payments at GCV** BYD Auto Service Co., Ltd., located in the Yuhua District of Changsha City, Hunan Province, is supporting Pi payments at a GCV rate of $314159 for the exchange of hundreds of cars. Each car was traded for 0.2 Pi, allowing around 40 Chinese Pioneers to drive home today. Congratulations to them! 💪💪💪✌️✌️✌️ Yong Chuang Capital has invested 40 million RMB in these hundreds of cars. The financial backing comes from Gaoling Group, Sequoia Capital, Hongyuan Construction, Poly Group, and Hunan Pi Chain Co., Ltd. I have verified this information with Mr. Li Shao from the Hunan Pi Network Merchants Association. The price of 0.2 Pi covers all related fees. While this amount is slightly above the fair market value (FMV), it is justified because the Pioneers did not need to pay Pi upfront; they simply signed contracts committing to pay after Pi migrated. The capital's willingness to accept full Pi payments at this time, before the official mainnet launch (OM), is driven by the potential for significant profits. The belief that the value of Pi is fixed at $314,159, as noted in the GitHub code, contributes to this perception of minimal risk. This can be called the time value. As long as pioneers have been notified this extra charge, it is a Fair barter for both sides. Although the price is higher than FMV, it addresses the immediate high demand for cars among Pioneers. Time is a critical factor, and Pioneers are willing to pay a premium to acquire their cars as soon as possible. A special thanks to BYD Auto Service Co., Ltd. for their prompt support of the GCV Ecosystem. We also appreciate the backing from the financial supporters of the Pi Network at the GCV rate of $314,159! With just one day remaining until the mainnet launch (OM), I anticipate that more significant commodity merchants will join the Pi Network soon. The Know Your Business (KYB) process for merchants has opened today, which will help address the challenge of merchants not having wallets to receive Pi. This is a priority channel for merchants to complete their KYB and obtain a wallet to connect to the Pi Network Blockchain. Doris Yin 🪷🪷🪷show more

Today our Pi main screen changed to the following... which we can see there will be another Hackathon! I believe this is a great work and deployment from CT! And Hackathon should be continuing to expand to apps which can connect to all industries widely in the world. I can see some Pioneers disappointed. Because these pioneers don't pay attention to Pi Network vision and mission and not understanding white paper well. They just want to get a car, property and cash ASAP. This is a short-sight. The eco system is Pi Network blood. This is critical. I used an example to make pioneers understand well what the relationship pioneers and CT is and what our pioneers task is. CT and pioneers are like a man's two feet. CT is on the right foot and pioneers are on the left foot. CT is like 💡, pioneers is like ⚡. We need to walk together to move. And if you want a light bulb, you need to have stable electricity and this stable electricity is like GCV. So when CT advanced to the Hackathon eco hardware system, pioneers should work on a software system which includes GCV, passion, attention and influence of Pi Network. When pioneers are ready with the above, ecosystem development will be super fast and easy. It will automatically go to open the mainnet! During the time CT and developers will keep on working on ecosystem hardware to develop more good platforms! So all pioneers should focus on self improvement! Of course if some Pioneers don't have trust in Pi Network, we all respect your decision 🙏 However this is yourself losses 🙏🙏🙏 All best wishes to pioneers all community! The third video introduces HuaRun Group. We don't need to argue if HuaRun joined the Pi Network. But we believe if all pioneers work hard with CT, not only HuaRun but also all super businesses will join Pi Network! So don't be an observer to wait and complain but stand up as a brave pioneer fighting for Pi Network success! Pi Network #PiNetwork #PiNetworkLive #Piopenmainnet #PiGCVshow more

Dear Pioneers, Based on my analysis and available data,... I believe the period after August will bring greater stability and opportunities for the Pi Network and the GCV movement. Here's why: In 2022, the first batch of pioneers to receive migration held large amounts of Pi, and many of them opted for a 3-year lock-up. As a result, we're currently witnessing a high volume of Pi being released during April, May, June, and July of this year. However, the CT noticed that a significant number of pioneers were rushing to liquidate their Pi due to short-term financial needs. This behavior conflicted with Pi Network’s long-term mission and vision, leading the CT to adjust its strategy. Since then, they’ve slowed migration significantly and focused on migrating smaller wallets—a clear sign of macro-level control aimed at stabilizing the ecosystem. If this combination of controlled migration, ongoing GCV education, reduced release of locked-up Pi, and increasing adoption by DApps continues, we could begin to see the price of Pi rise steadily after July. This is where every pioneer has a role to play. Please remember: Knowledge is your greatest tool. It’s not enough to simply understand the GCV movement—you must actively share this education within all your groups and communities. If we fail to inform others, their short-sighted actions could ultimately harm us all. Let’s work together, educate others, and stand united in building a sustainable and valuable ecosystem for Pi. The future is ours to shape—wisely and together. Sincerely, Doris Yin 🪷 🪷🪷show more

Dear Pioneers 🌏 We are living in a decisive... moment! Pi Network has the potential to become a true revolution in the global financial landscape, but for that to happen, we must act wisely and united. We are millions of Pioneers around the world, driven by the same purpose: to create a decentralized, accessible, and fair financial system for all. The real value of Pi is not determined by the traditional market but by our confidence and engagement. The GCV of $314,159 represents much more than just a number – it symbolizes our conviction about Pi's potential. Our Strength Lies in the Community For Pi to reach its true value, we need to act strategically and with commitment. No great project can sustain itself without the support of its participants. If we want to see Pi shine, we must: ✅ Avoid having our Pi traded on exchanges prematurely, creating scarcity and strengthening its value ✅ Not accept selling it for prices lower than it truly deserves ✅ Acquire and withdraw Pi from exchanges, consolidating its strength in the market ✅ Use it in real transactions, promoting its growth as a global digital currency ✅ Spread awareness and encourage its daily use, expanding its acceptance Each Pioneer plays a crucial role in this process. The more we use and value Pi within the ecosystem, the more it will establish itself as an asset of great global impact. The Future Is in Our Hands We can allow speculators to dictate the value of Pi, or we can take control of our own destiny and ensure that it reaches its true potential. The decision is ours! If we act together, with strategy and determination, nothing can stop us from making Pi Network a milestone in cryptocurrency history. The time is now, and each of us is a fundamental part of this revolution. Let's strengthen Pi together and make the GCV of $314,159 an undeniable reality!

What is Pi App Studio’s New creation Pricing Model?... Pi Network (Pi Network) has announced a major change to how creators will pay to build and edit apps through Pi App Studio, with the new pricing taking effect on August 24, 2026. Until now, Pi heavily subsidized App Studio for all creators. Under the introductory model, creators paid just 0.25 Pi to create an app and another 0.25 Pi to edit one. But Pi says the actual cost of providing AI-powered app creation is significantly higher than what creators were paying. That means Pi Network has been covering much of the difference. Now, after collecting data on how creators use App Studio, Pi is changing that approach. So, what exactly is changing? (1) Standard App Studio pricing is coming From August 24, creators will face a standard creation and editing price that more closely reflects the underlying cost of the AI services used. The exact price will not necessarily be fixed. Pi says it may vary depending on the resources required to create or edit an app. Importantly, Pi says it will not add a markup to the underlying AI service costs. (2) Some creators can still receive subsidized pricing The biggest change is that Pi is not completely removing its subsidies. Instead, subsidies will become more selective. Creators whose apps attract a sufficient number of real users can continue receiving the previous subsidized pricing. The focus will be on apps demonstrating genuine utility and usage from distinct users, rather than activity generated by the creator alone. (3) Pi wants creators to build useful apps This is arguably the most important part of the new model. Pi says not every app created through App Studio becomes something that other people actually use. Some apps are created simply for experimentation, testing or potentially spam. Continuing to subsidize every creation equally could therefore consume significant network resources without producing meaningful utility. The new model is designed to change that incentive. Creators now have a stronger reason to build apps that solve problems, attract users and provide value to the Pi ecosystem. (4) Subsidized pricing is not permanent or guaranteed Qualifying for the subsidy will not be a one-time decision. Pi plans to regularly review creator eligibility using newly generated data. A creator who does not qualify when the new pricing model launches could qualify later if their app attracts more genuine users. Likewise, the qualification criteria, pricing structure and number of creator tiers could change as App Studio develops. (5) Existing creators have a short window to improve The new pricing model begins on August 24, 2026. Before then, existing creators can improve their apps and encourage more Pioneers to use them. Pi specifically recommends improving an app's usefulness and usability, collecting feedback and continuing to build products that solve real problems. Pi wants its resources going toward apps that people actually use. At its core, the change turns App Studio from a broadly subsidized experimentation tool into a more usage-driven ecosystem.show more

Through the significance of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's unified... weights and measures in Chinese history and the purchase price of Lu Hua's unified snake venom, we can get some inspiration: 1. The price of Pi needs to be unified, and only unification can make Pi really circulate well. 2. Only a unified price can attract merchants and supplier platforms to participate in the development of the ecosystem. Without a unified price, most suppliers will only wait and observe or take out a small product input so it is difficult to achieve ecological prosperity or it will take very long time. 3. When the supplier is a business entry, it involves the preparation of financial statements and tax returns, which require a uniform price to accept for the management of the state. 4. If the price ranges from 1 cent to 310,000$ or even higher to 1 million$, it is an unfair and dangerous competitive environment for higher price suppliers. They cannot convince their companies to enter the Pi network to participate in the ecosystem. Also when most merchants or suppliers or eco platforms united the price, it will attract outside eco business enter in to create eco cycle to use Pi as payment and no need to exchange to FIAT. So why do suppliers pay $314,159 and others use 1 cent price? If you think about it, you can understand why that the price of the Pi is 1 cent, $1 or $100. Only those who want to buy want a low price, this is common sense. Why do many merchants actively support GCV? Don't forget that themselves are pioneers. Many people make mistakes in logic when looking at the relationship. Pioneers and merchants are not only the relationship as buyers and sellers but also they have same interests. The reason why sellers are willing to use GCV price is that they think Pi is scarce and precious and they have Pi in their hands. They hope to realize the vision of Pi by their own efforts. If everyone barters for $1 for $1 and $100, can the mainnet be opened? What are the risks of opening the mainnet? Will it cause Pi to fail to realize its vision or becoming the next Bitcoin? Now whether it is a low consensus or a high consensus merchant as long as they have Pi in hand you should come to sit together to discuss to unified price. Pi Network #WhatIdoforPi #PiGCVshow more

So why we need open mainnet and when it's... the good time to open and can we make it faster? I think Yes! WE build up Pi public blockchain is like we are building a highway. When the highway complete, all drivers need this highway because it can bring them benefit. And the highway can charge them fees every time when they pass. Pi is similar like a highway. The drivers are outside eco and different organization. We all know Pi WEB 3.0 blockchain has great value. This will attract outside eco come. When they come, they don't have Pi to pledge to use our blockchain. So they need to use their FIAT to buy our Pi. However, if our inner community has difference on price, it's like the highway has been controlled by different groups. These groups charge different fees. It will confuse outside eco and make them hesitate to come. That's why I believe open mainnet need united price for outside eco. Of course united price can help inner eco develop grow fast too. There are two options regarding price: 1. Let the pioneers and merchants slowly reach the agreement and we do nothing . This is let it go naturally. I do know some pioneers advocate this way. But I am sure it will take long journey because more than 45 million pioneers or maybe will never reach agreement. They will use from $0.01 to 1 million $ different price. 2. Our pioneers community advocate GCV because it has been accepted by a lot pioneers and merchants already. If all pioneers can understand this GCV price logic and if they hold Pi, they will support it. The reason is so simple. It relate to their self interest. This can be done very fast if we all united together. Another reason is based on a business accounting system. All business has tax reporting system even crypto currency. From 2019, USA IRS has the tax regulation on individual crypto currency capital gain. Currently most merchants are pioneers, they use their individual Pi Wallet. I see recently there is developer/merchant business wallet come out. Then they should use business Pi wallet. So it's easier for them to track crypto business profit and loss. As an accountant I know all capital gain or loss are calculated by using USD in USA. So accountant need a unified price. If not, the company will hesitate to join Pi eco system. Based the above reason, i call on Pi Community to support GCV price so that eco can satisfied prosperous condition to open mainnet. As for KYC and migration, the technology part has been mature or almost mature. And we believe CT and all pioneers can follow very fast. During close mainnet all merchants should do barter according to your availability. Please don't put all your products now! Close mainnet period is for cultivate the Pi Payment environment! If you have inventory and small items, you can put maybe 10% or less of your products to barter. All business owners should realize before opening mainnet there is risk of loss. Why many Chinese merchant do it? Because they are pioneers too ! They want to realize Pi GCV price so they do it volunteering to use inventory and small items with limit supply. Therefore it won't have much risk. And if open mainnet can reach GCV, they will not incur loss. So please all merchants do it wisely. Close mainnet small items and use inventory. Of course if you want to put big items, this is your choice and pioneers will be appreciated. But my suggestion is to be Rationalism. If everyone can do a little, it will create big influence. As a pioneer close mainnet it's not a time to get profit for yourself. So please don't expect cross border or big items because merchant has business risk. I see some cross border barter incur which is based on individual merchant. When open mainnet, you can realize all of it. But now it's time to help GCV price as a trend from my opinion. The above analysis is only my personal analysis. Reference only. It is not Business Advice! #WhatIDoForPi #PiGCVshow more
