Pi can be “mined” simply by tapping a “Mine” button once a day in the mobile app—no extra hardware is required, just install the Pi Network app and log in.

Pi ( Pi Network ) positions itself as a “mobile‑only mining” project. Users only need to open the official app and tap the mining button once each day to receive token rewards. Below is a complete step‑by‑step guide covering download, registration, and daily mining.

For users who want to try Pi mining on their phones, we have compiled a full‑process guide from installation to daily activation, plus practical tips for iOS account switching and network acceleration. Keep reading to master every essential step.

Detailed Tutorial for Mining Pi on a Mobile Phone

1. Download

Android: Version 1.34.2 download link

iOS: Requires an overseas Apple ID (non‑Mainland China). Search “Pi Network” in the App Store and install. Common free acceleration tools include: Summer International, Little Bull Accelerator, QuickMeow VPN, etc.

★ iOS Solution

Visit www.apple.com.cn and create a Hong Kong Apple ID using an unused QQ email (no credit‑card binding needed).
Sign out of the current iTunes Store / App Store account and log in with the newly created Hong Kong ID.
Open the App Store, search for “Pi”, and download the official app with the purple Pi icon. Future updates can be performed under the same ID.

2. Registration

Choose a registration method

Phone‑number registration is recommended for smoother subsequent actions.
Steps: select China region → enter phone number → tap Go → set a password (minimum 8 characters, must include numbers, uppercase and lowercase letters), e.g., `Susan123` → SUBMIT.

Enter first name, last name (Chinese characters are acceptable) and a nickname (4‑20 characters), then tap SUBMIT.
If you have an invitation code, enter it here; you will receive an initial batch of Pi for free and, after three days, be eligible to join a “security circle” that boosts your mining rate.

3. Guided Introduction

When you open the app for the first time, a step‑by‑step walkthrough appears. Simply keep tapping “Next” as prompted to finish the onboarding. Sample screens are shown below.

4. Identity Verification

The system periodically removes accounts that have not completed verification; unverified mining records become invalid. Therefore SMS verification is a mandatory step.

Tap the three‑line “hamburger” menu in the top‑left corner → go to Profile → select the second‑last option VERIFY.

Press the green START → OPEN SMS, send the international SMS to complete verification (cost ≈ 0.05 USD).

5. How to Mine

Daily routine: Open the app every 24 hours and tap the “Mine” button once to claim that day’s reward.
Security Circle: After accumulating 72 hours of mining, you can apply to join a security circle. When the circle reaches five members, each participant’s mining rate increases by 0.39 Pi per day.

Definition: Pi Network does not use the traditional Proof‑of‑Work (PoW) or Proof‑of‑Stake (PoS) consensus mechanisms. Instead, it is built on the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP), originally designed and later refined by Stanford computer‑science professor David Mazières.

The full source code has not been publicly released to date.
The current testnet runs on centralized Amazon Web Services servers, so the project is still some distance from its stated decentralization goal.

Why Is Pi Popular?

Several factors have helped Pi quickly amass a large user base:

Mining with a phone

Compared with Bitcoin, Ethereum and other projects that require expensive hardware, Pi’s mobile‑only approach dramatically lowers the entry barrier.

Viral referral system

Every time you invite a new user, your mining efficiency receives a boost, incentivising organic promotion.

Low‑cost experimentation

Because there is virtually no upfront financial commitment, failure of the project would not result in a monetary loss; if the project succeeds, early participants could reap additional rewards.

Note for global users: When converting Pi to fiat currencies, most exchanges support USD withdrawals via SEPA or SWIFT. Residents of the United States should use Binance.US (the US‑specific platform) rather than the global Binance site. Additionally, crypto gains may be subject to taxation in your local jurisdiction; consult a tax professional for guidance.
