After months of silence and price drops, Pi Network is starting to stir excitement again. The team has officially opened its Ad Network to all Pi ecosystem apps — and it might be the spark the project needed.
So, what’s happening?
Any app that’s live on Pi’s Mainnet Ecosystem Interface can now integrate ads and earn revenue in PI tokens. This creates a circular system where advertisers pay in PI, developers earn in PI, and users help fuel engagement. It’s a win-win that gives PI real-world utility — not just hype.
This Ad Network isn’t entirely new. Pi tested it last year with five community apps. But opening it up to everyone is a big deal. It gives builders a way to actually monetize their apps, which could bring more innovation into the ecosystem.
Even better? This news comes right after Pi Network integrated with Chainlink. That opens the door to more advanced dApps that need real-time, reliable data — like DeFi tools, games, and even prediction markets. More apps mean more reasons for people to use PI, which could boost demand and reduce the circulating supply.
Markets are already reacting. PI’s price is showing early signs of recovery. It’s pushing above some key moving averages — a possible sign that investor sentiment is turning positive. Right now, PI is hovering just under the 21-day EMA at $0.7569, and it’s already broken above the 20-day SMA ($0.6793). That’s a good look after a long slump.
In short: real utility might finally be coming to Pi Network. And if developers jump in, this could be the beginning of a major turnaround.
