The Pi Mainnet is upgrading to Protocol 26. Deadline: Aug. 11. All Mainnet node operators must complete the upgrade before the deadline to remain connected to the network. Details here: https://minepi.com/pi-node Protocol 26 is a major milestone ahead of the final planned upgrade, Protocol 27. With 8 successful upgrades completed over the past few months, these final two upgrades will bring the network up to date with the latest protocol features, improvements, and functionality.

In the Pi Launchpad model, projects issue tokens as tools to acquire users for their applications and integrate those tokens directly into product functionality, such as access, payments, rewards, and governance. Instead of being taken by the issuing project, the proceeds of Pi from their token launch go to a liquidity pool with the ecosystem token, which bootstraps a healthy liquidity foundation from the start. For the SLICE test launch on Testnet, this results in a liquidity pool containing SLICE and Test-Pi. In addition to matching individual buyers and sellers through a traditional decentralized order book on the Pi DEX, the pool uses an automated market maker algorithm to calculate swaps based on the amounts of both assets it currently holds. Learn more about how the SLICE liquidity pool works. https://minepi.com/blog/launchpad-liquidity-pool/

Pi Launchpad has completed the distribution of its second Testnet token, SLICE! Explore the post-launch experience and see how liquidity pools work through the new price tracking feature! The Launchpad app in Pi Browser shows individual allocation details, the launch and effective token prices, access to the SLICE liquidity pool, and a chart tracking changes in the SLICE price relative to Test-Pi. Go to the Pi mining app to learn more about the SLICE launch and liquidity pool mechanics.

Pi App Studio backend support has been enabled! Backend capabilities begin with persistent storage for newly created App Studio apps, allowing apps to save and retrieve user-specific data across sessions. Creators can now build App Studio apps with user experiences that continue even after users leave and return. For example: - Game apps can remember a user’s high scores - Productivity apps can remember a user’s to-do lists - Note-taking apps can preserve notes automatically Before, Pi App Studio apps were largely limited to frontend-only, single-session experiences, where app data such as preferences or progress would disappear if users left the app. Adding backend support is a significant App Studio platform milestone because it expands what AI-created apps can practically do on Pi Network. Persistent storage is the first capability built on this foundation, enabling a broader range of useful, everyday applications. Learn more and create apps with this new feature in Pi App Studio today! https://minepi.com/blog/app-studio-backend-updates/
