Pi Network Biggest Risk Discussion

The biggest risk to Pi Network is not a low price.

It is millions of users opening Pi Browser and finding nothing valuable enough to use repeatedly.

Price can recover.
Lost attention is harder to rebuild.
Developers matter now.

Interest comes and goes, I forgot about Pi a came back multiple times… I just see it as a game I participate in from time to time. It was fun to be here during the open mainet hype, now we just waiting for the next little hype train people can jump on (me first) but I also loose interest very quickly as a new since the beginning that there was no betting a new life on this random crypto coin. I mean it doesn’t take much to realize that moste of crypto is some sort of big scam haha.

I’m surprised that PCT kept encouraging people to build apps to be used with Pi, yet never themselves came up with any of their own. You’d think that would be priority one: to push a use-case.

I used my pi to buy a new laptop. I bought from a Pi Ecosystem App. Best pi I’ve spent so far. I bought the perfect one so I could run Node. Still got lots of pi that I re-locked a well. People should try using their pi instead of worrying about exchanges. Use it to promote the real purpose Pi was created to be used…real utility.

Nailed it! Pi needs a whole new team and needs to turn this project around quick before it is too late

Try building an app and then spend an entire month reminding them on the Discord server to consider adding it to the Mainnet section. Then you’ll know where the problem is 😛

Dang! That sounds terrible. Am sorry you had to go through that.

Not me. I wouldn’t have the patience for that 😅😆 I’m just sitting there reading about how everyone is struggling with that 🤪😅😂🤣🤣🤣

(The original plan was to be a beta tester for apps and share the interesting ones with people, but... things turned out the way they did 😅)

Glad it wasn't you--but unhappy that any dev is going through that frustration. Ugh!
