Pi Network is set to revolutionize the crypto world with the launch of its much-anticipated Open Network on February 20, 2025, at 8 AM UTC. This transformative move signifies a shift to the Open Network phase of Mainnet, marking a significant milestone for the network.
Having initially announced its plans to unveil the Open Network in Q1 of 2025, Pi has now confirmed the official launch date, signaling the end of the Enclosed Mainnet phase that commenced back in December 2021. During this period, the Mainnet operated within a closed environment, shielded by a firewall that restricted external connectivity.
With the removal of the firewall at the Mainnet launch, users will gain the ability to integrate Pi with external systems, unlocking its potential for real-world applications. This pivotal phase not only set the stage for the transition to the Open Network but also allowed Pioneers to complete their KYC verification, granting them access to Pi on Mainnet.
Simultaneously, developers were given the opportunity to create and deploy real-world applications and utilities within the Pi ecosystem. The Core Team, on the other hand, diligently worked on enhancing and refining various features and tools to support the network's expansion and functionality.
In a remarkable achievement, Pi Network surpassed its initial target of 10 million Mainnet migrations, boasting an impressive 10.14 million migrations ahead of the launch. The network is now gearing up to provide its community of over 19 million identity-verified Pioneers with access to Pi—a cryptocurrency with tangible real-world utility.
Excitingly, leading crypto exchange OKX announced its plans to list PI on the same day as the network launch, offering spot trading for the PI/USDT pair. This move further solidifies Pi's position in the crypto market and underscores the growing significance of the project in the digital currency landscape.
The launch of Pi Network's Open Network represents a significant step towards mainstream adoption and the realization of its vision for a utility-driven ecosystem. Stay tuned as Pi continues to make waves in the crypto sphere, reshaping the future of digital currency. #PiNetwork #CryptoRevolution
