Pi Network Boosts Mining Rate by 0.93%

Pi Network has announced a 0.93% increase in its base mining rate, raising it from 0.0029887 Pi per hour to 0.0030165 Pi per hour. This adjustment indicates that the previous month's token supply was not fully mined, presenting an opportunity for users to maximize their mining efforts before the supply tightens again.

To capitalize on this increase, users can follow four simple strategies to boost their Pi mining rate. The first step is to strengthen one's security circle by adding at least five trusted connections. Each active member added to the security circle provides a 20% boost to the base mining rate, with a maximum boost of 100% when five active members are connected. This not only enhances network security but also significantly increases the mining rate.

The second strategy involves growing a referral team. Users can invite friends or family to mine Pi using their referral code. Each actively mining referral adds a 25% bonus to the mining rate, with no limit to the number of referrals one can invite. This approach helps expand the Pi community and rewards users for their contributions.

For those looking to further enhance their mining rate, committing to lockup rewards is an effective method. By locking up Pi coins for a set period, users can receive a bonus that increases with the duration and amount of the lockup. Some users have reported increasing their mining rate by over 600% by locking up their Pi for three years.

The final strategy is to keep one's referral team active. Reminding team members to mine daily ensures that the mining rate continues to grow. The more active the team, the higher the mining rate for the user.

With the new base mining rate, a single miner can earn approximately 0.072396 Pi in one day. By fully implementing all four strategies, a miner could potentially increase their daily earnings from about 0.072 Pi to approximately 0.67 Pi per day, depending on team activity and lockup choices. This represents nearly a 9x boost in daily earnings.

Pi Network, which started as a phone mining project, has grown to include over 50 million users and a developing ecosystem of applications. The network's mainnet is now operational, and its ecosystem continues to evolve with new apps and merchants accepting Pi as a form of payment. The Pi Bridge, for example, allows users to swap Pi on Ethereum or BNB, while new apps like Pi Chain Mall and Fireside Forum are introducing more use cases for the coin.

One of the key factors influencing Pi's price outlook is its supply. With a total supply of 100 billion tokens, most of Pi's supply remains locked away. The Pi Core Team releases new coins slowly through mining rewards, developer funds, and planned unlocks every few months. This slow release helps prevent sudden market flooding and supports a more stable price environment.

The future value of Pi depends on its adoption rate. If adoption remains low and the Pi community fails to expand real-world uses, the price could hover around $20–$30 per coin. This would make 1,000 Pi worth between $20,000 and $30,000 by 2026. On the other hand, if Pi's ecosystem sees steady growth with more apps, shops, and users spending Pi, the coin could reach $50–$75. This would push the value of 1,000 Pi up to $50,000–$75,000. The most optimistic scenario is mass adoption, where Pi becomes a go-to digital currency for shopping, tipping, and apps. In this case, some believe it could hit $100+, making 1,000 Pi worth $100,000 or more.

The Pi Network app is user-friendly, allowing users to start mining by simply pressing a button daily. This simplicity has attracted a large user base, with over 60 million users mining Pi coins daily. The app requires no battery drain or costly hardware, making it accessible to a wide range of users. The network's growth and the increasing number of use cases for Pi suggest a promising future for the cryptocurrency.
