Pi Network has announced significant developments in preparation for its upcoming Open Network launch scheduled for Q1 2025.
Development of Mainnet Apps
The Pi Network team has made Mainnet apps accessible through the Ecosystem Interface in the Pi Browser. Currently, the interface includes 20 initial Pi apps, with plans to add more over time. These apps now empower Pioneers with real-world utilities and opportunities to conduct actual transactions using Pi, marking a significant step in the platform’s development.
Benefits for Pioneers
The introduction of Mainnet apps signifies a turning point for the Pi Network ecosystem. For the first time, Pioneers can directly engage with Mainnet apps where real Pi is exchanged, adding tangible utility to the cryptocurrency. Until now, the Ecosystem Interface served as a space for testing and development, but it now allows for showcasing fully operational applications.
Opportunities for Developers
Pi Network is encouraging developers to enhance their Pi-based applications and submit their projects for inclusion in the Ecosystem Interface through the Pi Dev Portal, providing them with the opportunity to reach the network’s extensive user base. However, users are advised to exercise caution when interacting with these applications, as they are independently developed and not officially endorsed by Pi Network.
The new Mainnet apps represent a significant advancement for Pi Network, bringing the platform closer to its full Open Network launch and expanding its utility for users.
