Consensus Miami is getting a slice of Pi!

Pi Founder Chengdiao Fan will speak at Consensus 2026 on Wednesday, May 6, from 11:15–11:35 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.

As AI dramatically lowers the barriers to building products, competition increasingly centers on authentic data, user acquisition, and trusted human participation.

Chengdiao’s presentation will explore how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, verified identity, and globally engaged network can support utility‑driven products and AI‑era business models.

The session presents a fresh perspective on crypto tokens not as exits, but as tools for sustainable growth and real‑world adoption.

See you all there!

Pi’s first smart contract capability is now live on Testnet: subscriptions!

This fosters real, recurring, utility-driven use cases.

Think e-commerce, streaming, online tools, and more, powered on-chain.

Pi is tackling one of the most urgent problems in the AI era: proving real human identity online.

Pi Founder Nicolas Kokkalis will speak on a panel at Consensus 2026 on Thursday, May 7, from 10:15-10:45 AM EDT at the Convergence Stage.

The session, “How to Prove You're Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself),” explores how the internet’s trust model is breaking as AI systems become capable of creating bots that can generate profiles and interact like real users.

At the core of the discussion is a simple challenge: how do you verify a real human online without exposing private identity data?

Want to know how? Join us in Miami on May 7th!

See you there!

To open the Testnet subscription smart contract to technical review and community feedback, Pi has released the second Pi Request for Comment (PiRC2).

Developers are encouraged to try integrating subscriptions in their own apps, review the subscription contract design, and test for bugs or edge cases, if any.

526 million human KYC validation tasks have already been completed on Pi.

By over 1 million verified people.

AI is advancing quickly.

But the hardest part of building reliable systems is still deeply human.

Models don’t improve from compute alone.

They improve from:

Judgment
Correction
Context
Nuance

Pi represents something different.

A globally distributed, identity-verified human workforce that has already demonstrated coordination at scale, already active in the Pi ecosystem.

This is real infrastructure, it’s already been used to process hundreds of millions of real tasks.

For AI systems, that changes what’s possible.

AI companies can access Pi’s human input infrastructure through the network’s over 18 million identity-verified Pioneers to improve models, tune inference quality, and scale data labeling and evaluation.

Read the announcement to learn more about how Pi can provide such services for AI companies, and share it with AI companies that may be interested!

Most AI systems still need good human input.

Automated training can scale.

But it struggles with:
Ambiguity
Nuance
Real-world judgment

That’s why human-in-the-loop systems still matter.

Not as a fallback. But as a core layer.

The challenge isn’t whether human input is needed.

It’s how to get it:
At scale
With quality
From real people

That’s the bottleneck, and Pi Network has already built the solution: the large-scale, globally distributed workforce of identity-verified human participants already active inside the Pi ecosystem.

The Pi Mainnet is upgrading to Protocol 23 – Deadline: May 15.

All Mainnet nodes are required to complete this step before the deadline to remain connected to the network. This upgrade takes longer to complete, so plan accordingly.

The Pi Founders are featured speakers at Consensus 2026 in Miami this week.

Chengdiao Fan will speak on Wednesday, May 6 (11:15–11:35 AM EDT, Convergence Stage) on “Aligning Web3, AI, and Blockchain for Utility,” exploring how Pi’s blockchain infrastructure, verified identity, and globally engaged network can support utility‑driven products and AI‑era business models.

Nicolas Kokkalis will join a panel on Thursday, May 7 (10:15–10:45 AM EDT, Convergence Stage) titled “How to Prove You’re Human in an AI World (Without Doxing Yourself),” exploring how the internet’s trust model is breaking as AI systems become capable of creating bots that can generate profiles and interact like real users.

Together, these sessions highlight Pi’s approach to the AI era: supporting utility-driven products and sustainable business models through blockchain, verified identity, and a globally engaged network, while enabling global identity verification through Pi’s native KYC solution.

See you there, Pioneers!

Vibe coders and creators can now tap into Pi Network’s massive user base of over 60 million Engaged Pioneers by easily bringing their external AI-created apps to Pi’s real distribution network and utility ecosystem through Pi App Studio!

Creators, who may be technical developers or non-technical product people, can build apps using platforms such as Codex, Claude Code, Replit, Cursor, Lovable or other AI-assisted coding tools, and then use Pi App Studio to convert those apps into Pi Apps.

That changes the equation for creators.

AI can already help people generate apps quickly; the harder part is distribution and turning those apps into products people actually use.

Pi helps close that gap.

Instead of rebuilding infrastructure from scratch, creators can connect their apps to an existing ecosystem with users, payment capabilities, identity verification, decentralized human infrastructure and platform-level tools already in place.

This feature makes Idea → App → Users that much faster.

Because your ideas are too good not to be seen.

Try the Pi App Studio Now! If you’re a vibe coder or know someone building apps with AI who needs distribution, head to Pi App Studio today to convert AI-created apps into Pi Apps and access the Pi ecosystem’s users, infrastructure, and monetization opportunities.
