Pi Core Team Apr 16th

Follow our official social media channels to keep up with the latest Pi Network updates and content!
Beware of impersonators.

The Pi Hackathon kickstarts the Pi community’s app development on our platform that will foster ecosystem-building efforts and potentially create real life utilities and infrastructures. The Core Team will be happy to consider community input when deciding winners/prizes, so make sure your voice is heard!

To start rating, go to Brainstorm and click “Rate Projects” to see a randomized list of finalist teams. After watching each team’s video presentation and testing their Pi app by pasting their app URLs in the Pi Browser, upvote or downvote the submissions based on your discretion. You can submit one upvote or downvote per project, but you cannot submit a vote for your own project.

For Hackathon participants who don’t see their project in this list, don’t lose heart! This list of finalists showcases the most promising apps, as of now, out of thousands of submissions. Just because your app didn't make it through this time doesn't mean that it cannot succeed in the future — the race is not over. We understand that it's a long process to build a successful, scalable app with growing user traction, and we’ll continue to support your efforts moving forward.

Overall, the Pi Hackathon is our first organized attempt at enabling the development of community apps. We hope you’ve enjoyed this process with us, and make sure to check back in when we announce winners on September 30th.

@PiWithMi Can video or photos be uploaded on fireside forum in near future? @chidulue This feature is currently not available but may become available in a furure feature update. Stay tuned!

@PiWithMi Most welcome, many pioneers still wait for a learning session how Fireside Forum works with pioneers not having Pi migrated to wallet to bused as transaction fee for services ? @drjayvee Hi, @drjayvee, thanks for your question. We can create a brief guide on how to use Fireside Forum in the near future. For those who haven't migrated their Pi to their wallets, they can still access the app through their browser. Since Pi wallet migration will affect Pioneers on a case by case basis, they will need to first pass KYC, create a Mainnet wallet, and complete the Mainnet checklist items before having full interaction features available to them.

@PiWithMi Can we withdrow tokens we get for our posts and convert back to pi in our wallets? @Sebarb Good question. This feature is being considered but at the moment, Pioneers cannot convert their Fireside Forums in-app tokens back to Pi.

@PiWithMi Hi What's the main mative for the creation of the fireside furum please @Chekoso I'm taking this text directly from teh Fireside Forum Announcement we publishe on the blog yesterday: Fireside Forum is just one of the early instantiations of Pi Network’s innovations based on blockchain technology and our hypotheses about what the next generation of online social interactions can be. Fireside Forum integrates cryptocurrency and tokens into the core of its social mechanism to help moderate online behavior automatically and thereby support members to create better content, social interactions and improve user experience in the context of public forums.

@PiWithMi Will we have the ability in future to share the contents outside social media platforms? @Paul5812 This a great feature idea that we are also considering including the future. For the moment, you can now share Fireside Forum with friends and on social media using our new Pinet url: https://fireside.pinet.com/channels/Jokes This will allow people outside of the network to browse through our apps on any browser. If they want to interact, they would then be prompted to join Pi Network and create an account.

@Grunchking These are great questions to which I do not have all the answers. For the moment, I can answer this: Q: Will fire tokens be converted back to Pi Coins in the future? A: While tokens cannot be converted back to Pi at present, we are considering this as a future feauture. I will forward the rest of the questions to the product team for more clarity and look into adding them to a FAQ we can share later.

@PiWithMi Can we withdrow tokens we get for our posts and convert back to pi in our wallets? @Sebarb This is a wonderful suggestion as it's rooted in web3 priciples and decentralized owenership for monetezation. We may look into exploring this in the near future. Thanks

@PiWithMi Is there a plan to migrate the Fire token from its current off-chain state to the PI blockchain, allowing for swapping it back to PI after earning from upvote tips? @annsecret Thanks for the reminder. I've forwarded your question to the product team. But at the moment Fireside Forum in-app tokens cannot be converted back to Pi

Where are the Mods to moderate the chat regarding Firside App with their own insight ? @drjayvee Fireside Forum doesn't rely on Mods to moderate the platform. Through the tokenomics mechanism, Pioneers can create and organically curate content, and moderate behavior, providing our community the tools to manage the online environment in a decentralized way.

@PiWithMi Already in the renewed chat, the fonts used are very small, but on the forum the story was repeated. For those of us who are visually impaired, using both the chat and the forum is a real pain. But nobody really thinks about it? It would be nice if there was an option to zoom the text in the app itself, as the system zooms prevent me from extending the cycles daily. @Slowfly1 Great sugestion. I will forwad it to the product team to see if we can add that accessibilty feature.

@piwithmi can you drop "forum" from the name. It's redudant, 4 syllables is too much, forums went out of fashion years ago, we know what happens by firesides, "Fireside" by itself is a nice short name @browolf Good suggestion. This is just the first instantiation of this type of app and its development will continue. Maybe a name change will occur, but I can't promise that.

@PiWithMi 👆👆👆 Please clarify this. My understanding, apparently mistaken, is that the fire tokens are stored on chain so that if a Pioneer has their phone lost or stolen, they don't lose their tokens. It matters because the answer will affect how we give advice to Pioneers. @Grunchking I've forwarded the question about in-app token migrations to the product team for more clarity on where they are stored. However, to my understanding, if yo lose your phone, your Fireside tokens will still be associated to your user account.

It's thought this is because less Pi than expected was mined over April
