🎤🎤🎤 THE ORIGINAL TEXT TRANSLATION #NICOLAS SPEECH AT #CONSENSUS 2025👇

Hello all Pioneers around the world!

I am Nicolas Kokkalis – co-founder of Pi Network and a passionate advocate for bringing technology closer to everyone, regardless of geography, economic status, or circumstances.

Today, I am not here just to talk about technology. I am here to talk about belief.

We have built Pi Network together not just for a cryptocurrency, but for a vision: to create a global, fair, and sustainable ecosystem – where everyone has the opportunity to access the value of blockchain technology.

1. About the Near Future: We are preparing to expand the decentralized application ecosystem – Pi Apps – more powerfully than ever. We have listened to the community, and now is the time to launch the tools, APIs, and resources that will help developers easily build on Pi.

2. About Open Mainnet: We have come very close. But it's not just about “opening the network”, we want to open it the right way – with identity protection measures, a robust anti-fraud system, and a marketplace where you can truly use Pi. We are accelerating the KYB process and node verification to ensure everything is ready.

3. About the Mission: We are not just creating a coin. We are redefining how the Internet operates – from personal data to financial transactions – in a decentralized and ethical manner.

And I want to convey to every Pioneer listening to me tonight:

You are not just an ordinary “miner”.

You are laying the first brick.
