Pi Network has announced that its Open Network period for Mainnet will commence on February 20, 2025. This marks a significant step in connecting to external blockchains.
Pi Network's Path to Open Network
Pi Network has undergone several key phases en route to launching Open Network. Since December 2021, the Mainnet was in an enclosed network, allowing users to complete KYC verification and migrate their tokens. The Grace Period starting in July 2024 accelerated KYC processing and encouraged users to finalize migration.
What to Expect from Open Network
The transition to an open network will bring key improvements. For the first time, Pi will be able to connect with external networks, allowing businesses and developers to build applications with broader integration. Node expansion, new business requirements, and compliance with KYC and KYB will support ecosystem growth.
How to Prepare for the Open Network Transition
Pioneers and developers should complete necessary verifications and migrations. Pioneers are encouraged to remain active in the ecosystem, while developers should enhance and create new applications.
The Open Network launch will be a pivotal moment for Pi Network, opening up new opportunities for users and developers. However, challenges remain as the community watches to ensure the February 2025 launch date is met.
