The PI network shifts the focus to gaming as part of its broader effort to revive users’ involvement and to restore confidence in its ecosystem.
On May 30, the core team announced Plans to use interactive entertainment to stimulate involvement and to unlock new use cases for its native token and app infrastructure.
The relocation follows the launch of Fruitepi, a game that is designed to show how developers can build on the Pi ecosystem.
The team stated:
“Fruitypi is a deceptively simple fruit-marbling game that is now live in the PI browser. Players drop fruit in a trash can and try to evolve them into larger and rarer fruit, while they avoid an overflow.”
The PI -KerneTeam explained that future games can integrate core aids, such as the PI wallet, PI -advertising network and can be signed in their project and at the same time use the large user base of the network for visibility and traction.
They also encouraged developers to request support from PI Network Ventures if their projects demonstrate meaningful acceptance.
In April, the network announced the establishment of PI Network Ventures, a Fund of $ 100 million to support startups that include PI in real applications. Subsidies from the fund are distributed in Pi -Tokens and from the 10% ecosystem development reserve.
The expansion of the Mainstet app from PI continues despite Tokendia
In combination with its gaming push, the PI network has added five new apps to the Mainstet -Ecosystem interface. These include an arcade game with snake theme, shopping platforms and apps focused on token-related information.
According to the team, every new application met the updated functionality, utility and compliance standards of the platform.
This wave of development follows months of internal controversy.
Last month, members of the community released their concern about the transparency of the project and the alleged market manipulation. Critics accused The team of the use of events such as Consensus 2025 to generate Buzz, to increase the token value and possibly offload holdings.
These issues have had a negative influence on the market sentiment around the token.
According to CryptoSlate’s Data, the Pi -Token fell more than 16% to $ 0.64203 last week. This represents a stunning decrease of 99.7% compared to the all time of more than $ 200.
