As the community awaits the expected ecosystem announcement, the Pi Network has launched a $100M VC fund to support real-world use cases.

The Pi Network has made efforts to expand its ecosystem with the latest play involving the launch of a $100M VC fund.

The new fund will fund projects and startups to advance real-world utility and adoption of the Pi Network.

Pi Network launches $100 million venture capital fund to expand ecosystem.

According to a press release, the Pi Network has announced a new $100 million venture capital (VC) fund to support innovative startups in the ecosystem.



According to the statement, the fund will feature assets in both USD and Pi Coins, advancing projects to achieve real-world Pi utility.

The new $100M fund will be distributed through Pi Network Ventures, a new mint created by the Pi Foundation. According to the announcement, Pi Coins form a part of the funds from Pi Foundation's reserves.

Pi Network Ventures will invest in Pi-focused companies at an early stage, including Series B and beyond rounds.

Additionally, the PI fund will expand support beyond blockchain-native startups with an eye on AI and e-commerce startups.

“This initiative provides creators with the resources they need to build solutions that solve real problems and add value to the Pi ecosystem,” said Nicholas Koukalas.

The announcement has been made at the start of Consensus 2025, with the project expected to be a big show at the event.

Is this the announcement of the widely anticipated ecosystem?

The Pi Core Team (PCT) has previously teased an ecosystem announcement for May 14, prompting community members to jump in. While the $100M fund has sparked a wave of excitement, there is speculation that this launch is only the tip of the iceberg.

Community members have their eyes on a list of potential exchanges for the Pi Network.

While chatter of a possible Binance listing continues, an HTX listing for the Pi Network has gathered significant steam.

HTX has dropped a series of hints in its social media posts hinting at a possible listing, raising hopes.

Upbit is another possible exchange listing, given the huge number of Pi Coin holders in South Korea.

Prior to the ecosystem announcement, the Pi Network price surpassed $1, leapfrogging Litecoin (LTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

A listing announcement during the Consensus 2025 event would signal further mainstream adoption on top of a potential Pi Coin rally.
