The post What to Expect From Pi Network’s Biggest Milestone Yet appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

When is Pi2Day, and why is it important? Every year on June 28, Pi Network celebrates Pi2Day, a kind of mid-year check-in that builds on the original Pi Day (March 14).  It’s supposed to be a clever nod to math (3.14 → 6.28), but it’s also become a key moment for the Pi community. Since 2023, the core team has used the day to showcase progress and rally users behind major initiatives. In 2024, Pi2Day, for example, featured a “Progress to Open Network” campaign where millions of users (known as “pioneers”) completed Know Your Customer (KYC) and tested new apps ahead of the mainnet launch. That event alone brought in about 4.5 million participants — a clear sign of just how active the Pi community had become. Fast-forward to June 2025, and the landscape looks very different. In February, Pi’s long-awaited Open Network mainnet officially went live. The blockchain firewall is gone, meaning anyone can now join the network as a node and move Pi freely. By launch, over 10 million users had already migrated to the mainnet, and that number has since climbed past 13 million. Pi’s ecosystem has scaled alongside that growth. By March’s Pi Day 2024, the community had developed around 70 decentralized applications (DApps) toward the team’s 100-app goal. That milestone was quickly surpassed, and as of this June, the network is home to thousands of apps, tools and experiments built by the community. One of the most visible signs of Pi’s growing utility was PiFest, a weeklong commerce event in March where over 125,000 merchants (58,000 actively participating) accepted Pi payments. Meanwhile, 1.8 million pioneers used a community-built “Map of Pi” tool to explore businesses and locations that support Pi. Another big step: the launch of Pi Network Ventures, a nearly $100-million fund (in Pi…
