Pi Network Urges Pioneers to Join Vibe Coder Campaign and Test Launchpad SLICE Token Before Pi2Day

Alright, fellow Pioneers, the Pi Core Team is giving us a heads-up about two ongoing initiatives that are wrapping up on June 28th, just before Pi2Day 2026. They're really pushing for community involvement to expand the ecosystem and get us familiar with new features. This is all about getting more utility and engagement going before the big day.

First up, there's the 'Vibe Coder' campaign. What this means for us is a chance to help bring more AI-powered apps into the Pi ecosystem. We're encouraged to find app creators who use AI and show them how Pi App Studio can give them access to our massive user base, built-in payments, and identity verification. Honestly, it's a smart way to organically grow the app utility, and you can even win some Pi merch for your efforts by sharing posts and submitting the link.

Then, we've got another call to action for the Pi Launchpad. They've rolled out their second Testnet token, SLICE, along with an improved participation flow. If you remember, we talked about this recently in our update on Pi Launchpad Releases Improved Participation Flow and Updated Model, Along with Second Test Token on Testnet. This is our chance to really kick the tires on the Launchpad in a safe Testnet environment, give feedback, and help iron out any kinks before it goes live on Mainnet. Testing SLICE helps the Core Team gather crucial data and ensures the product is solid.

For everyday Pi miners, these initiatives are a clear signal that the Core Team is focused on building out real utility and getting us involved in the process. It's not just about mining anymore; it's about actively shaping the ecosystem. Participating in these tests and campaigns helps strengthen the network, which ultimately benefits all of us by making Pi more valuable and useful. So, if you've got a few minutes, jump in and contribute!
