Pi Network V23 Upgrade Strengthens Mainnet Speed Security And Ecosystem Growth

Pi Network completes V23 mainnet upgrade with protocol, Ubuntu, and PostgreSQL updates to improve speed, security, and stability.

Pi Network said its mainnet has completed a major V23 upgrade, covering protocol, server, and database changes.

The update also included subsystem restructuring and large-scale historical data processing, while users await further official updates on future network features.

Pi Network Mainnet Moves To V23

Pi Network said the chain protocol has been upgraded from version 22 to version 23.

The project described the update as one of its most complex mainnet changes so far. The upgrade also moved the server system from Ubuntu 20 to Ubuntu 24.

This change is designed to support newer infrastructure and better long-term maintenance.

Pi Network also migrated its core database from PostgreSQL 12 to PostgreSQL 16.

Database upgrades can support faster processing, stronger performance, and better system management.

The announcement said the team restructured and optimized the wider subsystem. It also said large amounts of historical data were reprocessed during the upgrade.

Upgrade Targets Speed, Stability, And Security

The V23 update is aimed at improving Pi Network’s core mainnet performance. The announcement said network stability has improved after the upgrade.

It also said transaction speed and capacity have increased. These changes matter for users, nodes, and future ecosystem services.

The project said the upgrade improved the network’s underlying security.  It also said resilience has been strengthened across the system.

The update also addressed long-standing issues linked to lag, anomalies, and older data.

The announcement mentioned KYC and mapping issues among the data areas processed.

Pi Network said the upgrade removed technical barriers linked to open-source code and ecosystem growth.

The project did not provide a full code release timeline in the cited announcement.

Users Await Next Official Mainnet Steps

The statement said most core nodes are now in place. It also said the full network protocol will soon be migrated to V23.

A separate community analysis said the V26 protocol upgrade is expected on June 22. That analysis described its timeline as personal prediction and not official guidance.

The same analysis suggested smart contract functions could arrive from late May to early June.

It also said node governance permissions may be decentralized in batches during June.

The analysis further predicted that full code open-sourcing may start between July and August.

It also said the process could extend as late as the end of 2026.

Pi Network has not announced final dates for smart contracts, node decentralization, or full open-sourcing in the provided text.

Users are therefore watching for future official statements. The V23 upgrade places focus on mainnet readiness and technical cleanup.

It also keeps attention on Pi Network’s next development stages and ecosystem plans.
