Pi Coin’s price climbed 3.5% over the past 24 hours, coinciding with new updates from the Pi Core Team following the Pi2Day 2025 Ecosystem Challenge — a campaign that drove considerable user activity within the network.
The event, which ran from June 28 to July 7, introduced a series of tools and features, including the Pi App Studio, Ecosystem Directory Staking, and updated Node utilities.
The eight-step challenge drew in 2.6 million participants, with 761,000 completing all tasks and earning a limited-edition badge.Community developers created 7,600 chatbots and 14,100 apps via the new platform. In total, 34,800 users contributed to app development, highlighting strong engagement.
Meanwhile, more than 16,700 users staked tokens across over 1,450 apps to improve visibility — amounting to 37.7 million Pi coins staked, 25 million of which remain locked in.
Despite no direct incentives, the widespread use of new tools signals growing grassroots adoption. However, while the recent price increase brought Pi to $0.45, broader trends remain bearish. Data from Coinmarketcap shows an 186% decline over the past month, placing Pi Coin among the market’s top underperformers.
