Pi Network’s token has recently experienced significant growth, going against the general trend in the cryptocurrency market. It’s seen several days of double-digit percentage increases, reaching a three-month high of over $0.23 earlier today.
Based on my research, the recent improvements seem to be largely due to updates to the core protocol and the insightful case study on Pi Nodes that our team released earlier this week. I believe these two factors are the primary drivers behind the positive changes we’re observing.
The Case Study
The team announced they’re investigating ways to use the Pi Network’s widespread system to power AI training and computing. This could add significant new capabilities to the network, going beyond just securing the blockchain.
The network is designed to be energy efficient and doesn’t need all the computing power of its users. As a result, a significant amount of processing capability is still available across the thousands of devices running Pi Nodes.
The team sees potential in using extra computing power from Pi Node operators to help others with demanding tasks, like training and running AI models. Pi Node operators who contribute their resources could earn cryptocurrency for completing these computing jobs.
The Pi network is already a significant distributed computing system, with over 421,000 Pi Nodes and more than a million CPUs operating worldwide. It also boasts tens of millions of users who have completed the KYC verification process, meaning they could contribute to AI training by providing human input.
Combined with the processing power of Pi devices, this provides a valuable and scalable way to get real human input for AI, essentially offering AI developers a complete, all-in-one solution.
The team successfully tested the system with 7 volunteer Pi Node operators and saw encouraging results. They were able to send tasks to these volunteers, and the volunteers successfully sent back valid responses. This proves that Pi Nodes can perform calculations requested by outside parties – separate from their regular blockchain work – and deliver useful information to those parties.
PI’s Rally
As a Pi Network investor, I’ve been watching the recent price surge with excitement. Beyond the great news for Pi Node operators, it seems like the successful rollout of protocol version 19.9 and the upcoming v20.2 update (expected around March 12th) are also contributing to the positive momentum. It’s encouraging to see the development team consistently delivering on their promises.
PI is currently the best-performing large-cap alternative cryptocurrency, jumping 16% today to over $0.23 – its highest price in about three months. CoinGecko now ranks it as the 40th-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, which is over $2.2 billion.
Despite a large number of tokens already being available (nearly 21 million), the price hasn’t been significantly affected. But with more tokens scheduled to be released soon, a price drop could be likely.
