As Pi Day (March 14) 2025 approaches, Pi is announcing the first Open Network PiFest to celebrate local Pi commerce now that external connectivity is enabled!
Merchants can begin registering their businesses now, and PiFest shopping will begin on Pi Day.
Also, Pi has released a new feature allowing KYC-verified Pioneers to change their account phone numbers after completing liveness verification.
Tap “Read More” for details, and get ready for PiFest today!
Don’t worry if your migrated Pi was returned to the Pi App! It’s a security step to protect your Pi from errors or cheaters. Some users had issues with their wallets on the checklist, or even lost their passphrases, so this gives them a second chance to secure their wallets.
Your Pi will be migrated again, and everyone’s Pi is safe except the cheaters. Keep mining, and stay patient. Good things are coming!
If you really pay attention to PCT's strategy of opening the network on Feb 20th, you'll realize just how smart this move was. 🤯
💭 Imagine this...
If Pi Network hadn't launched on Feb 20th, only Pioneers would’ve been eagerly waiting for the Open Network on this Pi Day. For outsiders? It wouldn't have even been a topic of discussion.
But by launching before Pi Day, PCT has pulled off a masterstroke—one that sent butterflies not just to Pioneers, but to the outside world too. 🦋🌍
Here’s why this was a game-changer:
✅ Pioneers are excited, but outsiders are even more curious. ✅ Pi’s resilience during the recent crypto crash has impressed many. ✅ The same people who once called Pi a scam are now acknowledging its stability.
And guess what? Now they’re saying: "It can never be like Bitcoin."
🔎 See the pattern? ➡️ First, they ignored Pi. ➡️ Then, they criticized Pi. ➡️ Now... they’re comparing Pi to Bitcoin.
PCT’s strategy worked perfectly. Now the whole world is waiting for Pi Day 2025, not just the Pioneers! 🌍💥
And mark my words — it’s gonna be HUGE! 🎇 People are in for a BIG surprise.🔥
A street vendor set up a food stall, selling delicious pie $1 each. But no one bought them.
One day, he put up a sign: "LIMITED OFFER: ONLY 10 BURGERS LEFT!" For $5 each.
Within minutes, people lined up, fighting to get one. He sold out in no time.
The next day, he put up the same sign again. And again, he sold out.
What people never realized was—he had an unlimited supply.
Moral: Scarcity creates demand. Sometimes, what seems rare is just clever marketing.
Once upon a time you could mine 100 Pi a day, no one was interested, after 6 years it would take 6 days to mine just 1 Pi and suddenly everyone is interested.
This is just the beginning, the value of 1 Pi is going to put huge smiles on peoples faces soon.
