On January 19, news broke that the Pi Network ecosystem has achieved a significant milestone. A new application called TokPi has officially joined the Pi Network, bringing core social features such as short videos, live streaming, real-time chat, and digital gifts to the Pi Browser. TokPi operates entirely within the Pi ecosystem and can be directly connected to the Pi Wallet. Many Pioneers see it as the first truly “born for Pi” entertainment app.
TokPi’s product form is similar to TikTok, but its underlying logic differs fundamentally from traditional Web2 platforms. Users can not only browse creator content and engage in real-time interactions but also send digital gifts using Pi, enabling value transfer and content incentives. The app currently supports 10 languages, runs smoothly within the Pi Browser, and features a lightweight and social-oriented interface design, optimized for Pi users’ habits.
Within the Pi community, the launch of TokPi is considered a landmark event. It is no longer just about “showcasing Pi,” but about deeply integrating Pi into daily entertainment and social behaviors, shifting Pi from a mining asset to a practical digital economy tool. Some community opinion leaders have called on users to actively experience and give high ratings to TokPi to increase its exposure within the Pi application ecosystem.
Alongside TokPi, Pi Network has also launched the “Add Pi SDK” feature within Pi App Studio. This tool allows developers to directly connect existing or new applications to Pi’s core system, including Pi payments, Pi wallet login, mainnet conversion, blockchain interactions, and security verification. For developers, the Pi SDK significantly lowers the barrier to entry for Web3 applications and provides a practical pathway to reach millions of Pioneer users.
According to official disclosures, the current total Pi on the Pi Network mainnet is approximately 8.38 billion coins, with about 4.83 billion coins locked, and an unlocked circulating supply of around 3.55 billion coins. The locking mechanism has somewhat buffered short-term market pressure and provides a time window for applications like TokPi to gradually expand their usage scenarios.
With the landing of TokPi and the opening of the Pi SDK, Pi Network is gradually shifting from a “mining narrative” to a “real application-driven” Web3 platform stage. Entertainment, payments, and social functions are beginning to form a closed loop within the same ecosystem, which may be a key step in Pi’s emphasis on the “real economy.”

Pi Network PIRC baseline protection mechanism sparks controversy, implying a “quasi-stablecoin” logic
Pi Network member Daniel F raised a logical contradiction in the PIRC token design, noting that if it has a 23.8% floor protection, it would need to behave like a stablecoin, which conflicts with its high volatility on CEX. This floor is based on Pi’s price calculations; if Pi itself fluctuates significantly, it will be unable to effectively protect holders. Daniel emphasized the importance of transparency, but the project team did not respond to it, leading the community to continue speculating about the reasons for its silence.
