The Pi Network has introduced the .pi domain, a unique top-level domain (TLD) designed to enhance the Pi ecosystem by allowing users to create personalized digital identities within the network. This initiative aims to foster a decentralized web environment, enabling businesses, developers, and individuals to establish a distinctive online presence tailored to their needs.
Key Features of .pi Domains:
Integration with Pi Ecosystem: .pi domains facilitate seamless access to Pi-based websites, applications, and services, promoting broader adoption and engagement within the community.
Decentralized Web Identity: Operating within a Web3 framework, these domains offer users a decentralized digital identity, aligning with the principles of blockchain technology.
Blockchain-Based Acquisition: The process of obtaining a .pi domain leverages blockchain technology, ensuring transparency and security. All transactions related to domain acquisition are conducted exclusively using the Pi cryptocurrency, reinforcing its utility within the network.
.pi Domain Auction Details:
To distribute these domains, the Pi Network has organized a .pi Domain Auction with the following specifics:
Eligibility: Open to all members of the Pi community and individuals who have acquired Pi through centralized exchanges.
Duration: The auction commenced on Pi Day, March 14, 2025, and will conclude on Pi2Day, June 28, 2025. Notably, individual domain auctions will extend if new bids are placed within 24 hours prior to their scheduled end, ensuring fair opportunity for all participants.
Participation Process:
Access the auction platform via the Pi Browser at https://domains.pinet.com.
Search for your desired .pi domain.
Place a bid, with a minimum starting bid set at 10 Pi.
The highest bidder secures the domain, subject to potential future annual registration and maintenance fees, akin to traditional domain practices.
This initiative not only enriches the Pi Network's ecosystem but also exemplifies the practical application of blockchain technology in domain management.
