AB News

This blog highlights two recent updates that reflect ongoing progress across the Pi ecosystem. First, several new community apps have been added to the Mainnet Ecosystem Interface, expanding what’s available for Pioneers and reinforcing the network’s focus on ecosystem and utility. Second, a new account recovery flow has been introduced to help Pioneers reset their password in a secure and efficient way. Both updates support broader participation and continued development as the network evolves.

New Apps Join the Mainnet Ecosystem Interface
A new batch of Pi apps has been added to the Mainnet Ecosystem Interface, signaling continued growth across the Pi app landscape. These 5 apps—including a snake game app, e-commerce apps, and apps that provide information about the Pi token—met the network’s standards for app quality, completeness of app functionalities, evaluation of utility, and compliance with stricter Pi ecosystem policies and guidelines.

Each new app listing not only expands what’s available for Pioneers today, but also helps set a stronger example for future developers. As more apps go live, the ecosystem becomes a more attractive and rewarding space to build in for community developers—creating positive momentum for innovation, adoption, and real-world utility.

Note again that the Mainnet app list does not include all Mainnet and Mainnet-ready apps, as selection is limited based on quality, utility delivered, and compliance with Pi ecosystem policies and guidelines. There are many more third party Pi apps that are not listed here. Some third-party Pi apps that serve as a directory of Pi Mainnet apps may display more or even all Mainnet apps, so Pioneers can reference those for a broader view of available apps.

New Account Recovery Option Now Available
A new flow has been introduced for password resets: if a Pioneer has set up a trusted email, they will be sent a password reset link to that email address, in addition to existing methods.

The additional option is aimed at making account recovery more accessible and reliable while ensuring security since email recovery is simpler and cheaper for users, and reliable in general, e.g. no dependency on local telecommunications carriers. This not only protects individual access to Pi, but also strengthens overall network participation by helping more people stay connected and active in the ecosystem.

What is Binance Learn and Earn?
Binance Learn and Earn is an educational initiative by Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, designed to promote blockchain knowledge. Users can watch educational videos, read articles, and complete quizzes to earn small amounts of cryptocurrency. The program partners with various crypto projects to offer rewards in tokens like Shiba Inu (SHIB), Astar (ASTR), and others, though available rewards rotate periodically. It’s a win-win: you learn about crypto, and you earn free tokens for your efforts.
Note: The Learn and Earn program is only available to specific Binance users, typically new users who have completed Identity Verification within a set period. Rewards are limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, so act quickly when new campaigns launch.
Step-by-Step Guide to Using Binance Learn and Earn
Step 1: Create and Verify a Binance Account
To participate in Binance Learn and Earn, you need a verified Binance account. Follow these steps to get started:
Visit Binance: Go to www.binance.com or download the Binance app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android).

Register an Account:
Click on the [Register] button on the Binance homepage or app.

Enter your email address and create a secure password.

Agree to the terms of service and click [Register].
Complete Identity Verification (KYC):
Log in to your Binance account.

Navigate to the user profile section and select [Identity Verification].

Follow the prompts to submit identification documents (e.g., passport, driver’s license) and complete the verification process.

Verification is mandatory to be eligible for Learn and Earn rewards.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): For added security, set up 2FA using Google Authenticator or SMS verification. This is highly recommended to keep your account secure.
Note: Binance Learn and Earn is not available in all regions (e.g., the U.S. or Canada for Binance.com). U.S. users can explore Binance.US, but features may differ.
Step 2: Access the Binance Learn and Earn Page
Once your account is verified, you can access the Learn and Earn program:
Log in to Binance: Use your credentials to log in via the website or app.

Navigate to Binance Academy:
On the Binance website, go to the top menu and select [Academy] or directly visit academy.binance.com.

In the Binance app, find the “Learn” or “Academy” section under “More Services” or the “Information” tab.
Find Learn and Earn:
On the Binance Academy page, look for the [Learn and Earn] landing page. This page lists all available courses and the crypto rewards you can earn.

Alternatively, check the Binance blog or announcements for new Learn and Earn campaigns, as they are updated frequently.
Tip: Rewards are limited, and campaigns may end quickly. Regularly check the Binance blog or the [Learn and Earn] page for new opportunities.
Step 3: Choose and Complete a Course
The Learn and Earn program offers short courses on various crypto and blockchain topics, such as specific cryptocurrencies, staking, or trading basics. Here’s how to complete a course:
Browse Available Courses:
On the [Learn and Earn] landing page, you’ll see a list of active courses with details on the crypto rewards (e.g., $3 worth of SHIB or ASTR).
Select a course that interests you by clicking [Start Course].
Engage with the Content:
Watch the provided educational videos or read the articles. These are typically short (a few minutes) and beginner-friendly.
Topics may cover specific cryptocurrencies (e.g., Bitcoin, Solana) or advanced concepts like futures trading.
Take the Quiz:
After completing the course material, you’ll be prompted to take a short quiz to test your knowledge.

Quizzes are usually straightforward, and answers can sometimes be found online or in the course content itself.
Example quiz questions might include: “Is KYC required to buy cryptocurrency?” or “What is a market order?”
Pass the Quiz:
If you pass the quiz, you’ll be eligible to receive the crypto reward. If you fail, you may be able to retake the quiz, depending on the campaign’s rules.
Note: Some campaigns may have additional requirements, such as sharing a social media post or purchasing a small amount of crypto. Check the terms and conditions for each course.
Step 4: Claim Your Crypto Rewards
Once you pass the quiz, you can claim your rewards:
Check Reward Eligibility:
Rewards are typically distributed within 48 hours if you meet all eligibility criteria (e.g., KYC completion, new user status).
Go to [Account] > [Reward Center] in your Binance account to view your reward history.
Understand Reward Value:
Rewards are often listed as a dollar amount (e.g., $3 in SHIB), but the actual token amount is calculated based on the market price at the campaign’s start. For example, if the token’s price was $100 at launch, a $3 reward would give you 0.03 tokens, regardless of current market price.
Reward Distribution:
Rewards are deposited directly into your Binance [Funding] or [Spot] wallet. You’ll receive a notification once the reward is credited.
Tip: If a course shows “All rewards redeemed,” the campaign’s reward pool has been exhausted. Stay tuned for new campaigns.
Step 5: Manage Your Earned Crypto
After receiving your rewards, you can decide what to do with your earned crypto:
Hold in Your Wallet:
Keep your tokens in your Binance [Spot] or [Funding] wallet for future trading or investment.
Stake for More Rewards:
Transfer your earned tokens to Binance Earn’s [Simple Earn] or [Locked Staking] products to generate passive income. For example, staking BNB in the BNB Vault can yield up to 20% APY.
Trade or Sell:
Use Binance P2P to sell your crypto for fiat currency or trade it for other cryptocurrencies on the spot market.
Withdraw Funds:
To cash out, transfer your crypto to your [Funding] wallet, then sell it via P2P or withdraw to an external wallet. Be aware of withdrawal fees and network costs.
Note: Crypto prices are volatile, and the value of your rewards may fluctuate. Always research (DYOR) before making investment decisions.
Step 6: Stay Updated for New Opportunities
Binance frequently updates its Learn and Earn program with new courses and rewards. To maximize your earnings:
Monitor Binance Announcements:
Check the Binance blog or [Announcements] section on the website for new Learn and Earn campaigns.
Follow Binance on social media or X for real-time updates.
Explore Other Binance Earn Features:
Beyond Learn and Earn, Binance offers other passive income options like Simple Earn, Locked Staking, and BNB Vault. These can complement your Learn and Earn rewards.
Join the Binance Community:
Engage with Binance Academy’s free resources to deepen your crypto knowledge and stay informed about new earning opportunities.
Tips for Success
Act Quickly: Rewards are limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Check the Learn and Earn page regularly.
Complete KYC Early: Identity Verification is required to participate, so complete it as soon as possible.
Be Aware of Taxes: Crypto earned through Learn and Earn may be subject to income tax based on its fair market value at the time of receipt. Consult a tax professional for guidance.
Stay Safe: Enable 2FA and use Binance’s Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU) features to protect your account.
Research Campaigns: Some campaigns may require additional actions (e.g., trading or social media sharing). Read the terms carefully to ensure eligibility.
Risks and Considerations
Volatility: Crypto prices can fluctuate significantly, affecting the value of your rewards.
Limited Availability: Not all courses or rewards are available in every region, and some campaigns may exclude users based on account status or location.
No Guaranteed Returns: While Learn and Earn offers free crypto, the amounts are typically small, and there’s no guarantee of future campaigns.
Scams: Beware of fake Learn and Earn promotions on unofficial platforms. Always use the official Binance website or app.

Binance’s Learn and Earn program is an excellent way to learn about blockchain and cryptocurrencies while earning free crypto rewards.

The Pi Network, a mobile-first cryptocurrency project, has garnered a massive global following since its inception in 2019, boasting over 60 million engaged users, or "Pioneers," as of 2025. Designed to make crypto mining accessible via smartphones, Pi Network aims to democratize digital currency with its Stellar Consensus Protocol, enabling low-energy, user-friendly mining. Despite its mainnet launch on February 20, 2025, and listings on smaller exchanges like OKX, Bitget, and MEXC, Pi Coin (PI) remains absent from Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. Here’s why listing Pi on Binance is crucial for its growth, legitimacy, and the broader crypto ecosystem.
1. Boosting Liquidity and Market Reach
A Binance listing would significantly enhance Pi’s liquidity, a critical factor for any cryptocurrency’s success. Currently, Pi’s trading volume, while notable at around $772 million daily, is limited to smaller exchanges and over-the-counter (OTC) channels, leading to price volatility (e.g., a high of $2.98 to a low of $0.50). Binance’s vast user base and daily trading volume of over $22 billion would provide Pi with unparalleled market exposure, stabilizing its price through increased liquidity. This would attract institutional and retail investors, pushing Pi closer to its projected $10 price point, as speculated by analysts like Kim H. Wong.
2. Enhancing Credibility and Trust
Binance’s rigorous listing criteria, emphasizing transparency, compliance, and project quality, act as a seal of approval in the crypto world. Pi Network has faced skepticism due to its centralized governance, opaque tokenomics, and unverified claims, with critics like Bybit’s CEO Ben Zhou labeling it a potential scam. A Binance listing, following thorough due diligence, would signal to the market that Pi meets high standards, dispelling doubts and reinforcing its legitimacy. With 86% of Binance’s community voting in favor of listing Pi in February 2025, user demand is clear, and a listing could solidify trust among its 60 million Pioneers.
3. Driving Mass Adoption
Pi Network’s mission is to make cryptocurrency accessible to everyday users, particularly those new to blockchain. Binance’s global reach and user-friendly platform would bridge Pi’s massive but crypto-novice community to mainstream trading. A listing could integrate Pi into Binance’s ecosystem, including features like staking and DeFi, expanding its real-world utility. This aligns with Pi’s goal of building a robust ecosystem with dApps like Pailot and Map of Pi, potentially positioning it as a competitor to established coins like Ethereum.
4. Capitalizing on Community Support
Pi’s 3.7 million social media followers and strong community engagement make it one of the most popular crypto projects. Binance’s “Vote to List” initiative, where Pi garnered 88% support, shows the community’s enthusiasm. Ignoring this demand risks alienating users, as seen in the backlash with one-star reviews on Binance’s app after Pi was excluded from listings. Listing Pi could attract millions of new users to Binance, boosting its market dominance while rewarding Pi’s loyal base.
5. Overcoming Current Challenges
Pi Network faces hurdles like centralization concerns, with the Pi Core Team controlling all mainnet nodes, and transparency issues around its 100 billion token supply, of which only 6.8 billion are in circulation. Binance’s listing process could push Pi to address these, improving governance and tokenomics clarity. For instance, clearer communication on locking and burning mechanisms, as criticized by analyst Dr. Altcoin, could meet Binance’s standards, benefiting both Pi and the exchange’s reputation for listing quality projects.
Conclusion
Listing Pi Network on Binance is a win-win. For Pi, it means greater liquidity, credibility, and adoption, propelling it toward its ambitious $10 price target. For Binance, it’s an opportunity to tap into Pi’s massive user base, reinforcing its position as the leading exchange. While challenges like transparency and decentralization persist, a Binance listing could catalyze Pi’s evolution into a mainstream cryptocurrency, fulfilling its vision of financial inclusion for millions worldwide.
