After the Consensus Conference in Toronto in 2025, the Pi Network has moved towards full decentralization! The Pi Core Team (PCT) has removed all validators (from 2 to 0) from the central node, transferring control to the 50 million pioneers worldwide.
Consensus in 2025 and before: At the Consensus Conference held in Toronto from May 14 to 16, 2025, Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis shared the vision of the Pi Network. Prior to the event, the PCT was operating 2 validators on the central node. However, on May 16, these validators were removed, and the network transitioned to complete community management.
Technical details: The Pi Network uses an improved Proof of Stake (IPoS) consensus mechanism. The shutdown of the central node allows the network to operate now without a central authority. This truly embodies the core principle of blockchain: decentralization.
The PCT has withdrawn all central node validators—now it is 100% in the hands of the pioneers. The true era of $PI ownership has begun.
