Pi Network Sets May 15 Deadline for Major Smart Contract Upgrade

[AIcash]

Pi Network has announced a May 15 deadline for all mainnet nodes to complete the Protocol 23 upgrade — a major step that will introduce full smart contract support for the first time.

Built on Stellar Core 23, the upgrade is designed to unlock decentralized applications and expand the network’s Web3 capabilities. Node operators who fail to update in time risk being removed from the mainnet, losing both validation rights and rewards.

The move comes just after Protocol 22 went live, signaling an aggressive push to scale infrastructure and accelerate development.

Protocol 22 went live and Protocol 23 deadline is already announced, Pi Network is shipping updates faster now than it did during the years everyone was mining on their phones.
