1. October 17, 2024: Mainnet Node Release Announcement

On October 17, 2024, Dr. Nicolas (commonly referred to as CT) made a significant stride by releasing the Mainnet Node (Node version 0.5.0). The programming code for this version was uploaded to GitHub, offering transparency and accessibility to the developer community. Two days later, on October 19, 2024, this announcement was made public via the Pi Network App Homepage.

Key Highlights of Mainnet Node Release:

  • Version: 0.5.0
  • Purpose: Paving the way for the Supernode by ensuring stability and functionality.
  • Accessibility: Open-source programming on GitHub.

2. Initiating the Supernode Selection Process

Immediately following the announcement of the Mainnet Node release, Mr. Kosasih was tasked with the critical responsibility of developing the programming for the Supernode selection process. This programming, certified by Pi Network, is set to utilize the Raspberry Pi Compute Module for implementation.

Key Details:

  • Certification: Officially approved by Pi Network.
  • Technology: Raspberry Pi Compute Module as the hardware backbone.
  • Timeline: The Mainnet Node trial began in mid-October 2024 and was set to run for approximately three months.

By January 19, 2025, the trial period reached its conclusion, setting the stage for the selection of Supernodes. An announcement regarding this selection is anticipated within the next 1-3 weeks, aligning with the timeline outlined by CT.

3. January 4, 2025: Integration of Pi Coin Configuration Constants

A significant milestone was achieved on January 4, 2025, when Mr. Kosasih completed the verification and integration of Pi Coin configuration constants into the Supernode system. This included critical parameters such as:

  • Pi Symbol
  • Pi Value
  • Total Pi Supply

This integration provided a two-week trial period, concluding on January 19, 2025. With the successful completion of this phase, the Supernode is ready for testing in real-world scenarios.

What Makes Supernode Critical for the Open Network?

The Supernode is more than just a technical enhancement; it is the backbone of the Open Network. Here’s why it’s pivotal:

1. Scalability and Performance

Supernodes ensure the Pi Network can handle large-scale operations without compromising speed or efficiency. This is crucial as the network prepares for global adoption.

2. Enhanced Security

With advanced programming and rigorous testing, the Supernode offers robust protection against vulnerabilities, safeguarding users and transactions.

3. Decentralization

Supernodes play a critical role in maintaining the decentralized ethos of the Pi Network, ensuring no single entity can control the system.


What’s Next?

The next few weeks are expected to be action-packed. Here’s what we anticipate:

  1. Supernode Selection Announcement: Likely within 1-3 weeks following the Mainnet Node trial completion on January 19, 2025.
  2. Public Testing and Feedback: A phase dedicated to ironing out any issues and ensuring seamless functionality.
  3. Open Network Launch: The ultimate milestone, marking a new era for the Pi Network.

Why This Matters for the GCV Community

As GCV pioneers, these advancements mark a monumental step in our collective journey. The launch of the Open Network will not only enhance accessibility but also solidify Pi Network’s position as a trailblazer in blockchain innovation.


Conclusion

The progress towards the Supernode release and the Open Network launch represents a watershed moment for the Pi Network and the GCV community. With meticulous planning, transparent development, and exciting partnerships, the future looks incredibly promising. Stay tuned for the announcement of Supernode selection in the coming weeks, as this will set the stage for a transformative Q1 2025.
