Pi Network upgrades to Protocol 28 – But PI still can’t shake its slump

- Layer 1
Pi Network moved Protocol 28 onto testnet ahead of an Oct. 16 mainnet upgrade, with node operators asked to update by Oct. 13. The move comes as Pi Network says it is building a broader smart-contract ecosystem, while PI remains far below its prior peak.

What it means
This affects node operators first, because they have a deadline of Oct. 13 to update before the Oct. 16 mainnet step. It also affects people tracking Pi Network’s ecosystem work, since the protocol move sits alongside a push toward broader smart-contract support.
In practice, the network is moving Protocol 28 through testnet before mainnet, and node operators can no longer treat the upgrade as only a future change. The broader smart-contract direction remains in place, but the upgrade itself is framed as a protocol step rather than a finished expansion.
