Pi Network’s Protocol 20 Upgrade Unlocks Smart Contract Era, Fueling Web3 Ambitions
The Pi Network Protocol 20 upgrade has officially launched, transitioning the mobile-mined cryptocurrency project into a functional smart contract platform. With all major nodes now running version 20.2, the network achieves its long-promised evolution beyond basic token accumulation.
This overhaul enables escrow services and decentralized applications—a critical step toward fulfilling Pi's Web3 ambitions. The rollout coincides with post-Pi Day 2026 momentum, including a new Testnet Token Launchpad. Security enhancements like mandatory two-factor authentication accompany the migration process.
