In six long years, the Pi Coin team has made money by making people watch ads with the promise of "currency of the future!" Now, they have finally decided to launch the mainnet. What's the funniest part? Even they don't believe that their project will be listed because, frankly, there is no real blockchain infrastructure behind it. Most likely, it's just a simple database running on a system no different from the point system of a mobile game.

But then things became uncontrollable. The community grew too large over six years, causing the Pi team to no longer maintain the illusion. At first, they kept users busy with the old routine of "watch ads, get rich later" but when ad revenue was no longer enough to keep the machine running, panic began to set in. The community started to revolt, threatening not to click on ads anymore unless Pi was listed. And so, the team had to act.

Instead of building something from scratch, they conveniently jumped onto the Stellar network—because why put in the effort when you can just rely on an existing system? Essentially, they did what everyone does on Solana with meme coins, slapping Pi into a pre-made system and calling it a day.

But they didn't stop there. They decided to sprinkle some fake mystical elements to make the project seem "more special." Enter 314—a number they began to stuff into every possible detail. Mainnet launch? Oh, it just had to happen on February 20, exactly 314 days before the end of the year. The time between the project announcement and the mainnet launch? 314 weeks. They tried to sell this as a great mathematical genius move when all everyone cared about was: "When will this be worth real money?"
