$PI That question — when? — has been the biggest Pi question since 2019.

The honest answer:

No one can give an exact date.

But we can read patterns and technical signals.

Open Mainnet will not happen when hype is highest —
it will happen when 3 technical conditions are completed:

---

1) KYC backlog is near zero

Automation finalized → no more pending profiles.

2) Full open-source release

Node, Wallet, Protocol → public & transparent.

3) DEX + on-chain ecosystem already functioning

Not papers, not slogans — real apps & real payment flow.

---

Right now Pi is in the phase of:

pre-launch ecosystem alignment
(this is the most critical phase before OM)

That’s why we can see:

Exchanges starting to show DEX menus

Other chains preparing L2 + cross-chain infrastructure

Crypto narrative shifting to utility & non-CEX liquidity

These are indicators that the world is moving toward the OM environment.

So when is OM?

The most accurate answer:

OM happens when those 3 technical conditions are complete.

Not when KOLs hype it, not when livestream hosts scream.

Open Mainnet is a technical condition.
Not a marketing date.
