Pi Network Mainnet Progress & .pi Domains Concluded

The Pi Network is moving steadily toward a more structured and transparent blockchain ecosystem. Recent updates from the Pi Core Team highlight major developments on the mainnet and the conclusion of the .pi domain auction. These milestones mark a significant step in Pi Network’s push to establish real utility for its blockchain and applications.

Clearing the Hype: Mainnet Maturity

During the initial closed mainnet period, the Pi Network community faced a wave of false promotions and exaggerated claims. Many users expressed disappointment when the open network revealed the extent of these misleading campaigns. According to Pi Network community updates, these promotions have now largely dissipated. The focus is shifting toward real-world adoption and sustainable growth. Pioneers can now see the true capabilities of the Pi blockchain without the distractions of overhyped rumors. This transparency helps strengthen trust among users and developers. It is setting the stage for authentic growth across the network.

The .pi domain auction officially ended on September 30. This marks a key milestone in the Pi ecosystem. The team conducted the auction fairly, with automatic 24-hour extensions for last-minute bids. They ensured all active Pioneers had a chance to participate. Now begins the structured domain claiming process. This ensures that the community uses domains for real applications, merchants, and innovations rather than speculative hoarding. During the approximately two-month review phase. The team verifies auction results and prepares systems for domain claims. Only after this review can winners proceed to claim their domains. This careful approach emphasizes fairness and the long-term value of the network.

Claiming Domains: Real Utility First

Eligible winners will need to meet certain requirements to claim a .pi domain. Domains must be connected to a Pi App or a merchant platform showing real activity. Winners must provide a store URL, wallet information and a brief description of the domain’s intended purpose. Domains must be actively used to maintain validity. With annual renewals tied to continued utility. Developers, active apps and verified merchants are given priority access to claim domains. This ensures that .pi domains become functional assets rather than dormant digital addresses. By promoting real usage, Pi Network encourages developers and businesses to build sustainable applications that contribute to the ecosystem.

Building a Decentralized Web

.pi domains are more than just names. They represent authentic digital presence, trust in commerce, and real-world blockchain utility. These assets are foundational to Pi Network’s vision of a decentralized web where apps, developers and merchants can thrive. The ecosystem is supported by ongoing compliance and legal structure, exemplified by SocialChain Inc. This maintains active legal standing as the original backbone of the Pi Network initiative

This framework reinforces confidence in the network and its long term potential. As the Pi Network moves forward, the combination of mainnet progress. The functional .pi domains highlight the project commitment to real-world utility. The focus is now on active usage, developer innovation and merchant adoption. This is setting the stage for a sustainable and practical blockchain ecosystem. The Pi community can look forward to a period of growth, transparency and tangible applications. As the network moves from hype to true utility.
