Pi Network has seemingly kept its promise to reveal a Version 1 roadmap by the end of October, as expected. However, Pioneers are expressing disappointment due to the perceived lack of significant information.
Statement Via PiCoreTeam
The official @PiCoreTeam account has not shared this development yet. Still, it seems Pi Network has indeed released ‘Version 1’ of its new roadmap, as promised in a previous blog post for mid-to-late October 2023. The @PiNewsMedia account on X/Twitter shared the seemingly ‘new‘ v1 roadmap.
The v1 Roadmap
The blog post from October 9 on Minepi outlined Pi Network’s plan to roll out the new roadmap in two phases, with the first scheduled for October 2023 and the second in the final month of the year.
While Pi Network appears to have kept its promise regarding the v1 release in October, the contents of the roadmap do not offer anything groundbreaking. This aligns with the project’s history of allegedly repurposing old developments, consistent with the network’s description of the v1 roadmap before its launch.
The ‘new’ roadmap comprises only a few brief sections.
- Beta, Phase I
- Testnet, Phase II
- Enclosed mainnet, Phase III [enclosed]
- Open mainnet, Phase III [open]
Many commenters on @PiNewsMedia’s post noted the lack of new insights into the network and its plans, expressing frustration.
No Date for Pi Mainnet
Crucially, the new roadmap provides no timeline for the release of Pi Network’s open mainnet, a highly anticipated event for the community that has been awaiting this development for an extended period.
The lack of clarity surrounding mainnet plans is becoming increasingly apparent, with a mainnet timeline released earlier this year being met with scepticism and community members citing repeated delays and unfulfilled promises. Commenters are expressing disappointment regarding the absence of mainnet-related updates from Pi Network under @PiNewsMedia’s post.
The Pi Network community is eagerly anticipating the release of the network’s v2 roadmap in December, hoping it will finally offer clarity on Pi’s open mainnet plans.
Pi Network V2 Roadmap Description
However, the network’s description of the v2 roadmap release implies that no further open mainnet announcements will be made public in this later release either.
“We will then take community feedback and roll out Version 2 in December where we’ll expand the roadmap to include the future milestones for each product and program. This will offer a comprehensive view of Pi Network’s plans in the current Enclosed Network period of Mainnet. This second version will elaborate on the upcoming features, requirements, upgrades, and other initiatives that the network needs to carry out before entering the Open Network period,” according to the October 9 post on minepi.com.
Community Patience Wearing Thin: A Lingering Question
After enduring a prolonged wait and escalating community frustration, the lingering question is, “How much longer will Pi Network’s community remain patient before losing faith in the project?”
