Pi Network continues to update its users and developers with recent developments. This article summarizes the most significant events from the project since our last report. Major changes have been introduced to their verification process, including a shift away from phone numbers towards email-based two-factor authentication (2FA). While this system is currently the primary method for verifying accounts, future options may include biometric or passkey authentication. The team is implementing measures to ensure the integrity of the 2FA process by verifying email address usage. User email setup has faced temporary delays due to technical challenges, which have now been resolved. Accounts can migrate smoothly again. 2FA and other verification methods are designed to improve Pi Network’s security. Pi Network’s ad network integration is also underway. The project has started integrating its Pi Ad Network across native apps within the Pi Browser, allowing advertisers to utilize PI tokens for ad display while empowering developers to monetize user attention. Pi Apps now have a new way to generate revenue through ad engagement and incentivize innovation by offering rewards for app usage. This integration is part of Pi Network’s commitment to fostering a thriving ecosystem. Meanwhile, the PiFest event held from March 14th to 21st marked a historic milestone. The event attracted over 125,000 sellers, including 58,000 active ones, showcasing the potential for decentralized peer-to-peer transactions via the Pi Mainnet. The team highlighted how the event demonstrates Pi Network’s viability as a medium for real-world commerce and its ability to support local economies. Despite these developments, the price of PI has continued to decline, losing nearly 80% of its value compared to February 28th. This drop, including a 19% weekly decline and a 6% drop from yesterday, puts PI below $0.7 support. However, the Pi Network community remains optimistic for future price recovery, with some predicting a potential rise towards $5 under certain conditions. These predictions suggest that further action might be needed to improve the project’s market standing. The post “Pi Network (PI) News Today: April 2” appeared first on CryptoPotato.
