Pi Currency Technical Framework and Consensus Mechanisms

Pi uses the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP), which is different from the Proof of Work (PoW) or Proof of Stake (PoS) of Bitcoin or Ethereum, and eliminates the need for power-hungry computation and ensures network security by authenticating users through Trust Circles.

Mining Mode: Daily Check-In + Circle of Trust Verification
Security mechanism: Based on SCP consensus mechanism, no mining equipment required

This low-threshold model has allowed Pi Network to grow rapidly in terms of the number of users, but it has also led to a lot of discussion about how decentralized it really is.

Pi Network has 60 million registered users, 19 million of whom have completed KYC, but its blockchain technology and application ecosystem are still to be perfected.

Based on a total supply of 100 billion coins, the fully diluted market capitalization (FDV) of the Pi currency had reached $300 billion, surpassing that of Ether (about $285 billion).

The debate over the legality and long-term value of the Pi currency intensified with the opening of the main website, with Bybit CEO Ben Zhou calling the Pi Network a "fraudulent project" and citing a warning from the Chinese police that the Hengyang Municipal Public Security Bureau had accused the Pi Network of fraud. The Pi community countered by saying Bybit's application for the Pi currency was rejected.Bybit denies this and accuses Pi Network of spreading rumors.

The maximum supply of Pi coins is 100 billion, with 80% (80 billion) allocated to the community and 20% (20 billion) reserved for the development team. The supply and release mechanism is dynamically adjusted and long-term holdings are encouraged through the locking and pledging mechanism. As of the opening of the main network, 4.62 billion Pi were in locked storage and only 1.66 billion were in circulation, which means that some users still have confidence in the long-term value of the project.
