Summary

The December update to Pi Network mining parameters brought a surprising but logical change. The base mining rate increased from 0,00276 π/h (November) on 0,00313 π/h (December) – increase by 13,59 percentFor thousands of active miners, this means a concrete increase in their share of the network, just as the project is moving towards one of its most important stages.

The change is not accidental. It is a reflection of Pi Network’s dynamic algorithm, which adapts to the actual activity of the network. At the same time, something much more important is happening – the network is paving the way for its own decentralized exchange market and clearly defined infrastructure. Here is the full analysis.

How mining rebalancing works

Pi Network does not use fixed mining rates. Instead, it has an algorithm that dynamically adjusts based on the number of active miners and the overall health of the network. In simple terms: when there are fewer miners, the rate for the remaining ones increases.

The number of active miners has decreased in recent months. There are several reasons for this:

  • Low price on the market – Pi is trading around $0,22-$0,28, meaning 13 days of mining will only return a few dollars
  • Long wait for utilities – KYC is gradual, mainnet is not yet fully open to everyone
  • Competition from other projects – Mobile mining has become a trend in 2025 and Pi faces more competition
  • Token unlock in December – The release of 190 million tokens creates pressure on the price

The rate increase is therefore protective mechanismHe wants to ensure that the remaining miners have a reason to stay, and that the network remains secure and decentralized.

Valour ETP: Pi enters traditional financial markets

While domestic miners deal with increased rates, something else is happening in the background – the first regulated investment product on Pi.

Valour Inc. launched Fri SEK ETP (Exchange Traded Product) on the Sweden Spotlight Stock Market. This means that:

  • Institutional investors have a legal way to buy a Pi without technical knowledge
  • The product is regulated by Swedish supervision – which increases the credibility of the project
  • It is the first public Pi exchange to truly comply with compliance rules.

This is a major step for Pi Network. While the community is mining at home, the project is starting to move into a regulated market environment. This is the exact opposite of what the community expected around 2021-2022 – hype and speculation. Now Pi is being built from the ground up.

Preparing for Pi DEX: What's Behind the Scenes

According to the latest data, developers are carrying out extensive cleaning of the test network. Only 8 obsolete test tokens remain in the wallets (“N/A” status). This is not interesting in itself, but is important in context:

  • This cleaning is part of the preparation for Protocol 23
  • Pi DEX (decentralized exchange) is the final step before Pi Network can trade and set its own price
  • Mainnet cleanup means the infrastructure is approaching production status

Simply put: The teams in the background are fixing old bugs and preparing for the moment when real deals can be launched directly on the network.

Nodes: Infrastructure is growing faster than miners

While the number of miners is decreasing slightly (hence the higher rates), the number validation nodes on Pi Mainnet jumped from 23 (March 2025) to 296 (December 2025). That's an increase of 1200 percent.

The explanation is simple: It’s preparation. More nodes means more redundancy, more security, and the network’s ability to process more transactions. This is exactly what will be needed when the DEX launches and Pi becomes truly tradable.

What does this mean for miners?

Positive: Higher rate = more Pi for the same mining time. If you mine all bonuses (Pioneer 100%, Security Circle 100%), you can reach up to 0,008 π/h and more.

Context: While that sounds better, it actually reflects a decline. The increased rate is not a gift – it is a sign that the network has to adapt to the fact that many people have left.

Long-term view: Fewer miners + more nodes = preparing for a smaller but technically more robust network. This is not a bearish signal – it is a rebirth.

December 2025: Key Month

Without further ado: December is a critical month for Pi Network. There’s more to it than just mining and ETP:

  • 190M tokens unlock – The token economy will change significantly
  • Protocol 23 near – Last technical approval before DEX
  • KYC acceleration – Pi has made verification 50% faster (according to recent reports)
  • ETP value active – The first regulated path for investors

This is not a hype cycle like we see elsewhere. This is infrastructure development.

Conclusion

The 13,59 percent increase in the base mining rate isn’t just a numerical change. It’s a signal of adaptation. Pi Network is facing a slightly smaller mining community (which makes sense – there are no promises of big money, just technology), but it’s also building the infrastructure to scale it up.

The next 30 days will be crucial. The DEX launch will be the moment when Pi truly becomes what it promises to be – an autonomous economy. The increased mining rates are simply the price of entry to the moment when things get really interesting.

Keep an eye on December developments – the most significant changes are happening quietly.
