Integrating Pi payments in an app normally requires time and technical expertise from developers. Pi App Studio turned the complexity of payments integration into simple, non-technical and interactive steps in its app creation workflows for creators, enabling them to benefit from Pi payments integration just like developers can.
This marks an important step toward not only enabling non-technical people to create and own functional apps, but also generating creator monetization incentives and fostering sustainable business models for App Studio apps.

Nearly 2.5 million Pioneers in certain regions are unblocked by a new technical update to migrate to Mainnet, if they’ve completed the Mainnet Checklist and are active in mining. Over 700,000 additional accounts can also soon submit KYC applications! With these updates, more people are able to participate in the Mainnet ecosystem. Pi has reached 16 million Mainnet migrated Pioneers overall, distinguishing Pi as a massive identity-verified blockchain.

KYC validator rewards distribution continues to make progress in line with the previously announced timeline! Its design was finalized, implementation was completed, and currently the work is being tested. Testing is incredibly important, as it affects the distribution of Pi payments to KYC validators for their work in the KYC process of millions of Pioneers. The target remains deployment by the end of this quarter (March 2026).
Every First Friday of February (FFF day), Pi celebrates Moderator Appreciation Day! Today is about recognizing the moderators who make the Pi Network community what it is. Thanks to all Pi moderators for their incredible volunteer efforts in supporting the Pi community—assisting Pioneers, translating content, managing Pi Chats, answering questions, and more. https://youtu.be/RDMES5HLAUw
Watch the celebration video and remember to thank Pi moderators for their hard work and commitment to Pi’s global community!

Many projects rush to launch and fail later. Pi chose the opposite path: delay, test, filter, and build slowly. That’s why access, KYC, and apps move step by step.
This phase isn’t about excitement.
It’s about separating real users from noise.
Those who understand this phase usually benefit from the next one.

Quiet phases are where real networks are built.
No trending hype, no viral pumps — just infrastructure, users, and testing.
Most people lose interest here.
That’s exactly why this phase matters.

The long process isn’t random. It filters users who are patient, informed, and willing to follow rules. Networks that survive long-term are built by disciplined communities, not impatient crowds.
it’s measuring commitment over time.

Important reminder for Nodes: The Pi Mainnet blockchain protocol is currently undergoing a series of upgrades. The deadline for the first upgrade step is February 15. All Mainnet nodes must complete this step to remain connected to the network. More information is available here https://minepi.com/pi-node/
In the long run, fewer but committed users matter more than millions of impatient ones.
Sometimes, growth means saying no more than saying yes.

In crypto, speed attracts attention.
Structure attracts longevity.
Pi’s slow pace isn’t for everyone, and it doesn’t need to be. Some users leave. Others stay and adapt. That choice is part of the design.
Not every project is built to trend.
Some are built to last.
