Updates and Q2 plan
The Core Team’s strategies have always been decentralization, ecosystem-building and network growth.
In Q1, we released the Pi Wallet - an important milestone towards decentralization – enabling all Pioneers to interact with the Pi Testnet and preparing the network for the Mainnet. We also released the Pi Browser – the new interface of the Pi Utilities platform – that will allow Pi Apps to be built, tested and accessed easily. At the same time, the network has grown to over 17 million engaged Pioneers.
In Q2, while keeping up the work on the Testnet and growth, the Core Team has been focusing on building and improving the Pi Utilities Platform – the necessary infrastructure for building the Pi ecosystem. We always believe the real value creation will occur in utilities and applications, thus the development of the utilities platform has always been an important strategy at Pi Network. In the context of the market volatility and noises in the crypto space, real utilities and a robust ecosystem are the best defence.
Specifically, we’re working on the following things for the Pi Utilities Platform, and they will be released later in Q2.
- Integration with Testnet
This will enable third-party Pi apps to call Pi Wallets and send transactions to the Pi Testnet. When the Mainnet is live, this process will connect to the Mainnet, hence allowing Pioneers to spend Pi in Pi apps. - Integration with Pi Browser
As mentioned in the Browser launch, the Pi Browser is the more open interface of the new utilities platform. - New developer portal
Third-party developers of Pi apps will be able to apply and request for authorization to use certain resources there. - Standardized environment to build and deploy ecosystem apps
This will enable ecosystem app developers to build their app in a way that will not require much further complication in deploying on Pi servers and scale to millions of Pioneers. As a reminder, ecosystem apps are Type 2 Pi apps that usually do not have a business model but provide missing functionalities for the ecosystem, as opposed to Type 1 Business apps.

核心团队的战略一直是去中心化、生态系统建设和网络增长。
在第一季度，我们发布了 Pi 钱包——去中心化的一个重要里程碑——使所有的先锋能够与 Pi 测试网交互，并为主网准备网络。我们还发布了 Pi 浏览器——Pi 实用程序平台的新界面——它将允许 Pi 应用程序易于构建、测试和访问。与此同时，这个网络已经增长到超过 1700 万名参与拓荒者的人数。
在第二季度，在保持测试网工作和增长的同时，核心团队一直专注于构建和改进 Pi 公用事业平台——构建 Pi 生态系统的必要基础设施。我们始终相信，真正的价值创造将发生在公用事业和应用领域，因此公用事业平台的发展一直是 Pi Network 的重要战略。在加密领域的市场波动和噪音的背景下，真正的公用事业和一个强大的生态系统是最好的防御。
1.与 Testnet 集成
这将使第三方 Pi 应用程序调用 Pi 钱包，并将交易发送到 Pi 测试网。当主网上线时，这个过程将连接到主网，因此允许拓荒者在 Pi 应用中使用 Pi。
2.与 Pi 浏览器集成
正如在浏览器发布中提到的，Pi 浏览器是新实用工具平台中更开放的接口。
3.新开发人员平台
Pi 应用的第三方开发者将能够申请并请求授权使用那里的某些资源。
4.构建和部署生态系统应用程序的标准化环境
这将使生态系统应用程序开发人员能够以一种不需要在 Pi 服务器上部署更多复杂性和规模到数百万先锋的方式构建他们的应用程序。需要提醒的是，生态系统应用是指 Type 2 Pi 应用，它们通常没有商业模式，但为生态系统提供了缺失的功能，这与 Type 1 business 应用不同。
