The Pi Mainnet is upgrading to Protocol 23 – Deadline: May 15. All Mainnet nodes are required to complete this step before the deadline to remain connected to the network. This upgrade takes longer to complete, so plan accordingly. Details here: minepi.com/pi-node

Pi Testnet now has an RPC server. This is a major step toward Smart Contracts being simulated, tested, and deployed.

Pi released a deep-dive case study into the recent proof-of-concept project for a new Pi Node utility that supports decentralized AI training and computing tasks for third-parties using the spare computing capacity of over 421,000 Pi Nodes. In collaboration with OpenMind, a robotics startup invested in by Pi Network Ventures, this project showed that Pi Nodes can process AI-relevant workloads and return useful results quickly. This work is part of and provides insights for the general initiative to integrate Pi into AI infrastructure itself, utilizing distributed computing and enabling authentic human input for AI training, inference, and reinforcement learning. minepi.com/blog/openmind-…

Why is Pi focusing on AI? What does AI have to do with blockchain? Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan explores how Pi is working to address the fundamental changes emerging in the AI era.

What are Pi ecosystem tokens and what is the design thinking for ecosystem tokens on Mainnet? Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan dives deep into Pi’s unique approach to ecosystem token design — Pi’s focus is not on tokens for their own sake, or on mechanisms and integrations in isolation, but on enabling useful, utility-driven tokens and supporting the real innovation behind them. Learn more on the specifics of ecosystem token design here. Pioneers are encouraged to comment, discuss with other community members and share specific suggestions on specific sections. github.com/PiNetwork/PiRC

What is the network working on now? Pi Founder Nicolas Kokkalis offers an overview on how the network will continue the general work that matters to Pioneers such as KYC and Migration, and to developers such as improving and expanding the tools that enable them to build easier on Pi, and various initiatives that are intended to facilitate more utility on Pi.

Over 3.36 million additional Pioneers have fully passed KYC after a recently released system process made 4.76 million Tentatively KYC’d Pioneers eligible for full KYC completion through conducting additional checks! minepi.com/blog/system-pr… Around 3 million more Tentative Pioneers can become eligible through this system process by completing their required liveness check. Fully KYC’d Pioneers should complete the Mainnet Checklist to migrate to Mainnet—over 2.69 million from this release have already done so and migrated.

An additional 3 million Pioneers with Tentative KYC cases can be unblocked by the newly released system process if they submit the required additional liveness checks in the app. So, if your KYC status is Tentative and the app requires you to conduct additional liveness checks, complete them as soon as possible! minepi.com/blog/system-pr…
