Pi Network has set a firm deadline of April 27 for all Mainnet node operators to upgrade to Protocol 22, warning that nodes still running version 21.2 after this date will be automatically disconnected. This upgrade is crucial as it prepares the network for full smart contract functionality expected with Protocol 23 in May 2026. Protocol 22 introduces new features like a dual-interface for easier node management and is a foundational step for Pi's transition into a programmable blockchain platform. Despite these technical advances and a growing user base of over 18 million KYC-verified users, the PI token price has remained stable, with investors awaiting further developments at the upcoming Consensus 2026 event and the eventual rollout of Protocol 23.
