Pi Coin Transaction Guide: How to Transfer to Gate.io

Basic introduction to Pi Network

Pi Network is a decentralized cryptocurrency network for the masses that aims to drive the most inclusive peer-to-peer economic system, enabling users to mine and trade Pi tokens from the convenience of their mobile devices. Different from the traditional proof-of-work (PoW) mechanism, which relies on high-computing power devices, Pi Network adopts a consensus mechanism based on the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP) to lighten the mining process, empower global users to participate in the blockchain economy, and build a complete ecosystem through a mobile-friendly interactive interface.

In terms of economic model, Pi Network adopts a negative exponential decreasing token issuance mechanism, and its mining rate gradually decreases over time, which is affected by the growth of network scale. This mechanism is designed to ensure the sustainability of the Pi token supply and incentivize early adopters to actively participate in the ecosystem. Pi Network will officially open its mainnet on February 20, 2025, and the core issues that the market is currently concerned about are the release of mainnet liquidity, exchange support, and the progress of the ecosystem, all of which will directly affect the long-term value of the Pi token.
