Pi2Day 2025: What Is Coming & Why Is June 28 Important For Pi Network

The Pi2Day, celebrated every year on June 28, is a major milestone for the Pi Network community.  It is the day when the Core Team typically rolls out updates, unveils new features, and shares the latest progress across the ecosystem. For Pioneers, it’s a moment to reflect on growth and look ahead to what’s next.

A History of Major Updates

June 28 could bring major updates from Pi Network’s Core Team, as they have often used key dates to launch new features like blockchain domains, dApps like FruityPi, and Pi Browser upgrades.

In 2024, the focus was on improving the KYC process. The team introduced better liveness checks and fixes for stuck applications. They also launched the PiNet initiative on Pi Day, allowing users to access the Pi ecosystem outside the Pi Browser. Updates were also shared for the Fireside Forum, Pi’s Web3 social platform.

The 2023 event centered on ecosystem utility. New tools like advanced Developer Wallets and Pi Developer Chats were launched. The team also introduced a Developer Ambassador Program and announced larger hackathons to support app development.

What Pioneers Expect in 2025

Pioneers are eagerly waiting to see what the Core Team reveals this year. Many hope for major progress on KYC, app utility, or even steps toward the Open Mainnet. Besides, the community is also looking forward to updates from the Pi Core Team regarding the GCV value.

A successful KYC sync rollout could bring millions of Pioneers into the active phase, improving validator spread and app usage. Developers and users are hoping for new tools or real-world use cases that take Pi beyond just mining hype.

Pi Network launched PiFest 2025 on March 14, aiming to connect users with merchants who accept Pi Coin for real-world payments. Running through March 21, the event promotes local commerce during the Open Mainnet phase. The announcement was made on Pi Day, a yearly event celebrating the number π.

Second KYC Wave, Mainnet Roadmap, and dApp Launches

One of the most anticipated updates on June 28th is the second wave of KYC verification, which could unlock access for users in China, Africa, and Latin America. A clear Mainnet roadmap could also be released, with rumors of listings on Binance or HTX.

Developers may also start launching new dApps and features, especially if the Core Team gives the green light in their Pi2Day broadcast or blog. Updated timelines for future tools or governance features may also be revealed.

If Pi2Day sparks more activity or confirms exchange listings, we could see a jump in demand and value. On the flip side, if major updates are missing, disappointment in the community could lead to selloffs in the market.

Pi Network Hints at AI Integration

Pi Network may be gearing up for a game-changing shift, with the Core Team hinting at integrating Generative AI into its growing ecosystem. Co-founder Nicolas Kokkalis’s appearance at a major AI panel during Consensus 2025 has fueled speculation across the crypto space.
