The 3 phases of the Pi Network
Phase 1: Design, Distribution, Trust Graph Bootstrap.
- Pi Server will emulate the behaviour of the decentralized system
- Pi will not be listed on exchanges during this phase and it is not able to buy or sell Pi.
- All the coins of the users will be migrated to the live net once it launches.
Phase 2: Testnet
- The Node software will be deployed on the test net.
- Users will be able to download their own Nodes.
- The network is getting ready towards the Mainnet
Phase 3: Mainnet
- When the community feels the software is ready for the production, and it has been tested on the Test Net, the official mainnet of the Pi Network will be launched.
- The Phase 1 emulator will be shut down, and the system will run on its own.
- The coins will be transferred to the manner, and duplicate/fake accounts will be removed.
As of June 14, 2020 the Pi Network is in Phase 2.
