#PI

On March 14, 2019, a seed was quietly sown in the silence of the digital world. Its name is pi.

From that moment on, a long and lonely expedition began. We called ourselves "pioneers," carrying our yearning for the brilliant starry sky, and embarked on this unknown path. We thought that ahead would be a cacophony of drums and cheers, with everyone watching, but we never anticipated that most of the journey would be so silent and protracted.

This is an epic about "waiting".
The sun rises and the moon sets, spring passes and autumn comes. From 2019 to 2025, over two thousand days and nights flow by our fingertips. We watch the surrounding world bustle and change, we see other projects briefly shine, while we can only tightly hold the "starlight" in our hands, persevering in silence.

That loneliness is deeply etched in my heart.

When the doubts from the outside world surge like a tide, when the thought of "Have we already failed?" lingers in the dead of night, and when companions around us gradually drift away in confusion... we have no one to confide in, and can only swallow all the helplessness and bewilderment alone under this star map we choose to believe in. We are like a group of night watchmen waiting for dawn in the darkness, and the only thing we can do is believe that the starry sky above us will eventually shine.

Later, we finally understood that this silence was not inaction, but a form of the deepest protection.

We never knew that during those most difficult years, the members of the core team were choosing the most arduous path—"low-key development." They were not silent, but forging every part of the starship day and night in a laboratory unseen by anyone; they were not low-key, but using wisdom and resilience to find the safest and healthiest route for this starship amidst the giant waves of the market and the storms of regulation.

They know very well that premature commotion will only bring unnecessary risks. They choose to bear all the pressure and misunderstandings, pouring all their energy into one thing: protecting the health and success of the pi Network. They shielded us from open and hidden attacks, just to allow this seedling to take deep root in solid soil.

Thus, the loneliness of the pioneers and the perseverance of the core team became two sides of the same coin on this journey. Our waiting is because of their escort; our confusion is ultimately illuminated by their achievements.

Today, as we look back on this journey that began in 2019, every night of torment has transformed into the rings of growth, and every lonely wait has settled into the cornerstone of faith.

Pioneers, please give yourselves a round of applause.
Thank you to the self that never gave up in the midst of rumors, and thank you to the self that chose to believe despite the confusion. It is precisely our perseverance, along with the foresight and responsibility of the core team, that has collectively formed this starry sky that is about to迎来 the dawn.

"Dreams come true" has never been a lighthearted blessing; it is a coronation for all those who do not give up their faith in the darkest moments. "May everything go smoothly, may your wishes come true, and may everything be as you wish" is the most sincere and deserved expectation we have for each other and for the stars we collectively protect.

The stars do not disappoint those who keep moving forward.
The longest night has passed,

Dawn is just around the corner.

Salute to every pioneer.
Salute to every member of the core team.
Our starry sea will eventually
Arrived.
