The launch of Pi Network's Open Network marked a new phase in the ecosystem's development, linking them with real-world applications and commerce. The first 100 days of innovation have shown growth rates and opportunities for business.
Full Blockchain Connectivity
The launch of the Open Network enabled full connectivity between Pi and the broader blockchain landscape, allowing businesses and developers to integrate with the network after passing Know Your Business (KYB) verification. This opened up opportunities for various use cases, from payment acceptance to game creation.
$100 Million for Startups
On another front, Pi Network Ventures launched a $100 million fund to support startups focused on creating real-world applications within the ecosystem. One example is the FruityPi game, which integrates key Pi tools, showcasing how the gaming industry can draw users into the broader ecosystem.
Expanding Digital Identity
The platform also introduced .pi Domains, allowing users and businesses to claim unique digital identities. Over 69,000 domains have seen active bids, with 3 million Pi offered across more than 123,000 bids.
The first 100 days of Pi Network's Open Network have laid a strong foundation for real-world adoption. Millions of users and new tools for developers promise to accelerate the development of a utility-focused and secure ecosystem.
