Pi Network’s Strategic Moves: September 30 Deadline and Stellar Core Integration to Shape Blockchain Future

The extension of the .pi domain auction deadline to September 30, 2025, has sparked both excitement and skepticism within the Pi Network community. Initially set for June 28, the extended timeline aims to encourage innovation but also raises concerns about potential technical dependencies.

Pi Network's alignment with stellar Core's Protocol 23 upgrade, scheduled for a mainnet vote on September 3, highlights strategic timing. This upgrade, featuring smart contract capabilities and Web3 enhancements, could significantly boost Pi's blockchain functionality—enabling advanced dApps and faster transactions. "This synchronization is deliberate," notes Dr. Altcoin, emphasizing Pi's Stellar-based infrastructure.

The deadline extension also serves as a development period for creators to utilize upcoming Stellar features. A smooth integration could transform Pi from a mobile mining project into a formidable Web3 player. Analysts suggest the domain auction's results may indicate Pi's ability to move beyond speculation and deliver real-world utility.
