On March 14, 2025, Pi Network celebrates the significant day of Pi Day, which reflects on the network's achievements and future developments. The celebration symbolizes both the start and new phases of the project's journey.
The Beginning of Pi Network: Pi Day 2019
Founded by Stanford graduates Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis and Dr. Chengdiao Fan, Pi Network was launched on March 14, 2019, a day known as Pi Day. Their goal was to make cryptocurrency accessible via a mobile app to a broader audience by bypassing energy-intensive requirements. The app's first version launched in December 2018 quickly gained attention due to its ease of use.
Development Milestones: Steps to Success
Pi Day has become a symbol of key milestones for Pi Network. By 2020, the network reached 1 million users, and in 2021, launched its Testnet and began utilizing the Stellar Consensus Protocol. The year 2022 marked the launch of the Enclosed Mainnet, allowing transactions within a closed environment. By 2023, over 3.8 million users were verified on the platform. 2024 introduced the last version before Open Mainnet, showcasing the network's growing popularity.
Anticipations for Pi Day 2025
Pi Day 2025 is the final celebration of Pi Network's achievements before the full launch of Open Mainnet. Among anticipated updates are new developer tools and blockchain optimizations. The primary goal is to strengthen the decentralized ecosystem and expand application usage. The overall user count is expected to exceed 60 million by then, and plans to address current challenges and issues are likely to be presented.
Pi Day 2025 marks a day reflecting on the accomplishments of Pi Network since its inception. It is a time to ponder on the path taken and the ambitions for the future. With successes and challenges faced, the network continues to rapidly evolve, capturing the attention of thousands worldwide.
