Pi Network Set to Make Major Announcement at Consensus 2025

As anticipation builds across its 60 million-strong community, Pi Network is preparing for what could be its most significant announcement yet. The event will take place during Consensus 2025 in Toronto, where the Pi Core Team is expected to unveil a major development that could shape the project’s future.

Centralized Node Shutdown Fuels Decentralization Hopes

Momentum surged after the Pi Core Team recently disabled its centralized node, hinting at a push toward a more decentralized architecture. Speculation intensified further when developers suggested the project may soon release open-source code—an important step for transparency and community-driven innovation.

Additionally, insiders have hinted at potential partnerships with major tech players such as Google Cloud and Visa, which would significantly enhance Pi Network’s credibility and expand its utility within the Web3 ecosystem.

In a technical update, the team instructed all node operators to upgrade to the HORIZON version or risk disconnection from the network. This measure underscores the project’s intent to standardize and stabilize its growing infrastructure ahead of the upcoming announcement.

Critics argue that the network has yet to deliver on promises of decentralization and token liquidity, raising questions about the project’s long-term viability unless concrete action is taken soon.

Can Pi Network Deliver on Its Promises?

With its promise of zero transaction fees and a mobile-first Web3 vision, Pi Network has captured global attention—but now it must prove real-world value. The upcoming Consensus event features speakers like Michael Saylor, Vitalik Buterin, and Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis, adding legitimacy and elevating expectations.
