Updated: 1h ago- Increased Price Volatility: Pi Network, XRP, and Ethereum experienced significant price declines over the past week due to geopolitical tensions surrounding Trump's ambitions for Greenland, with Pi Network currently trading around $0.18, over 90% below its 2025 peak.
- Payment Tool Launch: The Pi Network core team introduced payment integration within the Pi App Studio this week, enabling non-technical users to build applications within the ecosystem, although access is currently limited to a test version, which is expected to enhance user engagement and application usage.
- Ad-Based Incentive Mechanism: A new option allows users to deploy app iterations by watching advertisements, with the first 1,000 qualified participants set to receive 5 Pi tokens, aiming to boost community interaction and application feedback.
- Market Confidence Erosion: Despite the new features, community trust in Pi Network has waned, with some members urging the incorporation of peer-to-peer lending and staking rewards to accelerate real-world adoption, reflecting a pessimistic sentiment about future developments.
