What’s New on Pi Network Before Pi2Day: SLICE Testnet Token, Launchpad, and Price Update

Published by

Pi Network is building momentum ahead of Pi2Day on June 28, rolling out a new Testnet token while its price shows early signs of recovery.

The Pi Core Team recently announced updates to the Pi Launchpad after receiving feedback from more than 478,000 participants who joined the platform’s first Testnet token experiment. Alongside the upgrades, Pi has launched a second Testnet token called SLICE, which will remain active until June 28.

Pi Launchpad Gets a Major Upgrade

According to Pi Network, the first Launchpad test generated valuable community feedback that helped identify ways to simplify participation and improve the overall user experience.

The updated system now focuses primarily on Test-Pi commitment amounts. Instead of navigating a more complex process, users simply choose how much Test-Pi they want to commit while the platform automatically calculates the remaining requirements.

The team says the goal is to make Launchpad participation easier, more transparent, and fairer for all users.

At the same time, the new SLICE token is being used to test these improvements. Like previous Launchpad experiments, SLICE exists only on Testnet and will not migrate to Mainnet.

Price Recovery Starts Taking Shape before Pi2Day

Pi price is trading around $0.134, improving its short-term outlook. For bulls, the first major resistance sits near $0.1378. Meanwhile, the SLICE Launchpad test and improving price action are giving the community fresh reasons to watch Pi Network.

On the downside, immediate support is located near $0.1296, followed by stronger support around $0.1242. If selling pressure returns, the key floor remains near $0.1186.

With Pi2Day approaching, both the SLICE Launchpad test and improving price action are giving the community more reasons to watch Pi Network closely.
