TL;DR
- Pi Network expands access through Web3 wallets and exchange availability, including support for users in the United States through OKX.
- The project also advances its infrastructure with v23 node upgrades, smart contract deployment, and cross-chain bridge development.
- At the same time, Pi App Studio introduces AI-focused tools that allow developers to build applications more efficiently, while upcoming token unlocks keep attention on market supply.
Pi Network continues moving closer to its open mainnet phase after introducing infrastructure and ecosystem upgrades across its blockchain. The project is focusing on wallet accessibility, node performance, smart contract integration, and developer tools as it attempts to strengthen adoption before a wider rollout.
#PiNetwork✨ is here with a bang! I only talk about real-world progress, no hype or exaggeration:
✅ Pi has been included in the top trending public chains lists of mainstream Web3 wallets, allowing for one-click connection without manual RPC configuration.
✅ The v23 node… pic.twitter.com/I9YqKUAJlL

The latest updates arrive as Layer-1 blockchain projects compete to attract developers and retail users through simplified onboarding and cross-chain functionality.
Pi Network Expands Wallet Access And Mainnet Infrastructure
Pi Network reported that its blockchain now appears among trending public chains inside several Web3 wallets, allowing users to connect through simplified one-click access. The integration reduces the need for manual RPC configuration, a process that often creates friction for new users entering decentralized ecosystems.
The project also gained additional exposure after PI became available to users in the United States through OKX. On the infrastructure side, most major Mainnet Nodes have reportedly upgraded to version 23.
Pi developers also confirmed that the project’s smart contract architecture has already been deployed internally. Smart contracts remain essential for decentralized applications and ecosystem growth. Competing networks such as Ethereum and Solana have shown that application development often drives long-term network activity.
AI Development Tools And Token Supply Draw Attention
Pi Network is also expanding its ecosystem strategy through Pi App Studio, a platform designed to help developers create AI-powered applications connected to the network. Builders using tools such as OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, and Replit can integrate Pi-related functionality into their workflows.
The approach reflects a broader trend where blockchain projects increasingly combine artificial intelligence with decentralized infrastructure to attract developers.
At the same time, investors continue monitoring upcoming token unlocks. More than 200 million PI are scheduled to enter circulation this month, while another 1.65 billion PI are expected to unlock over the next 12 months. Additional supply often creates short-term pressure on token prices, although growing ecosystem activity could help offset market concerns if adoption continues expanding.
Pi Network has not confirmed an exact timeline for its full open mainnet launch. Still, the latest upgrades indicate that the project continues prioritizing scalability, accessibility, and ecosystem development as competition among blockchain networks intensifies.
