Pi Network Revamps Mining Model: Rewards Now Tied to Real Contribution
Mining Rate Now Adheres to Exponential Decay Model
The Pi mining incentives are now controlled by an Exponential Decay Model, which means the aggregate mining incentives reduce over time. This model rewards early adopters and new users with limited but equitable incentives. The strategy ensures long-term token stability through avoiding inflation.
The updates come following the publication of the new Pi Mainnet Migration plan, which details the transition of mining parameters.
System-Wide Base Mining Rate Controls Rewards
Every month, a predetermined amount of Pi Coins is paid out based on a System-wide Base Mining Rate (BMR). Individual rewards are a multiple of the BMR, based on a user's network contributions such as:
- Creating Security Circles
- Using Utility Apps
- Running a Node
- The greater a Pioneer's contribution to the network, the greater their mining rewards.
Balanced and Dynamic Distribution
Pi Network's dynamic model ensures that while user counts increase, overall Pi Coin supply remains capped. This inflation-control mechanism is aimed at preserving token value in the long term, differentiating Pi from other classic cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Recently, Pi Network also dropped its tokenomics, unveiling a capped supply of 100 billion Pi Tokens.

Mining Through Community Building
Different from conventional Proof-of-Work (PoW) or Proof-of-Stake (PoS), the mining structure of Pi rests on social utility and trust. Pioneers stand to benefit more by:
- Inviting new people to participate in the network
- Building circles of trust
- Participating in Pi utility applications
- Fostering the ecosystem through technological methods such as node operations
- Such a deliberate strategy not only fosters engagement but active community building.
Conclusion
Mining Pi is no longer just about tapping a button—it’s now about adding value. As the network evolves, only those contributing meaningfully to Pi’s ecosystem will earn more coins. The time has come for Pioneers to level up their engagement and secure their share in Pi’s decentralized future.
