I'm getting interested in Pi Network's movements. There was an announcement that the deadline for node updates has been set for March 1st, which indicates an important phase in the network transition. All mainnet nodes need to complete their updates by this deadline.

Transaction verification and consensus maintenance are core functions of the nodes, but especially the stability of the consensus mechanism using the SCP protocol is crucial. How the SCP protocol functions during the phased upgrade rollout directly impacts market confidence.

However, the native token is quite volatile. Recently, it surpassed $0.20 but then dropped below $0.16, and now it's around $0.17. Whether the market is stabilizing at this level or still remains unstable is something to watch.

What concerns me is the upcoming token unlock schedule. Apparently, 22 million tokens will be released all at once on March 7th. The simultaneous release of such a large amount of tokens alongside the SCP protocol update could exert significant selling pressure on the market. Even if the network stabilizes after the upgrade, the increased token supply might suppress the price.

I'm curious how the Pi Network community perceives this transition phase. The relationship between node update progress and token prices, as well as the implementation status of the SCP protocol, will likely influence future developments.
