Pi Network Core Team Adds Five New dApps & Introduces Recovery Options Update

In a recent blog post, the Pi Core Team (PCT) announced the integration of five new community-developed dApps into the mainnet ecosystem interface.

The network has been expanding its offerings and focusing on 'ecosystem and utility.' The second update concerns a new account recovery flow to help community members reset their passwords.

According to the team, these new applications include a snake game, e-commerce applications, and applications that provide on-chain data about the Pi token. The team added that these apps met the network's standards for app quality, completeness of app functionalities, evaluation of utility, and compliance with stricter Pi ecosystem policies and guidelines.

"These new app listings also help provide a framework for future developers. As more apps go live, the ecosystem becomes more attractive and rewarding for community developers to build," the Pi Network team elaborated.

The crypto community can access the full list of new dApps and their descriptions in the table below:

App Name | App Category | Main Functionalities

:---|:---|:---

Snake | Game App| A classic snake game implemented in the Pi blockchain.

Shopcoin-Plus (version 2.0) | E-commerce App | An updated version of the Shopcoin Plus app with new features and improvements.

Pi Chain Data (version 2.0) | Data Application | An application that provides on-chain data about the Pi token and its transactions.

Moreover, for the second major update, the team elaborated that they have introduced a new flow for password resets. Now, a community member can receive a password reset link if they have set up a trusted email. This is in addition to existing password recovery methods.

The blog post added, "This additional option ensures account accessibility while maintaining optimal security. Email recovery is simpler and cheaper for community members and password reset is more secure and preferred by those who prioritize strong cybersecurity."

Kraken Introduces Pi Perpetual Futures

Amid the Pi Network team's announcement, crypto exchange Kraken has listed Pi perpetual futures on its platform with up to 20x leverage. Traders will be able to long or short the token on the exchange's futures market, which boasts over 40 collateral options and operates across over 360 markets.

This represents a major move for the Pi coin, which is already listed on the top crypto exchange, OKX (CRYPTO: OKX) for spot trading. Meanwhile, community members still await a listing on other top crypto exchanges like Binance (CRYPTO: BNB), Bybit and Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN).

However, it is worth mentioning that Bybit CEO Ben Zhou once revealed that his exchange has no plans to list the token while labeling the Pi Network a scam.
