The post How to Boost Your Pi Network Mining Rate By 26x in 2025 – Key Strategy appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

As the Pi Network’s mining rate keeps dropping in 2025, many Pioneers are asking the same question: “Is it still possible to earn decent Pi today?” The short answer—yes! But only if you know how to make the most of the tools Pi already gives you.

A dedicated Pi user recently revealed how they boosted their mining rate by over 26 times from the current base of 0.0030 π/hr to an impressive 0.083 π/hr. And guess what, you can do the same by applying a few smart strategies.

Why Is the Mining Rate So Low Now?

Pi mining is no longer about just tapping a button daily. It now rewards active participation, strong community building, and long-term commitment.

Pi Network introduced a base rate of 0.0030 π/hr in May 2025, significantly lower than in past years. This drop is part of a planned reduction to control the total supply of Pi coins, which is capped at 65 billion for the Pi community mining rewards for the loyal Pioneers. 

That means passive users are now earning very little—unless they boost their rates through activity.

Real User Strategy: From 0.0030 π/hr to 0.083 π/hr

First, let’s understand how Pi calculates mining rates. Every user starts with a base rate, currently 0.0030 π/hr. But several features act as multipliers, adding significant boosts depending on your actions.

Here’s how the user achieved this high mining rate:

First Security Circle (100%), by adding 5 trusted Pioneers, you double your base rate.

Secondly, Lockup Bonus (631.44%), by locking their Pi for 3 years, which gave them a massive 631.44% boost, shows strong network commitment and was rewarded generously.

Lastly, Referral & Utility Bonuses (3.26x total), they had 7 active referrals and actively used Pi apps, both of which pushed the rate higher.

All these together created this powerful formula: 0.0030 × (1 + 831.44%) × 3.26 = 0.083 π/hr

Interestingly, the user wasn’t even running a Pi Node, which could’ve added another 10% or more, potentially pushing them past 0.1 π/hr.

Why This Matters for Pioneers

If you’re only mining at base rate, you’re missing out. Pi Network’s design favors those who actively engage, building trust circles, helping others join, locking up tokens, and using apps.

Even though the mining rate keeps decreasing, you can still maximize your rewards by using these tools wisely. Pi isn’t about passive rewards anymore—it’s about building value together.
