While having dinner, I noticed Pi Network announced the launch of their RPC server. For those who aren't tech-savvy, don't worry about the jargon.

However, I took a moment during my meal to verify if the Pi Core Team (PCT) is actually delivering or just throwing out "crumbs" to keep us hopeful. By directly monitoring the "heartbeat" of the server they announced, I can confirm the API is 100% LIVE.
Here are the technical highlights:
Performance: 21 blocks generated in approximately 1 minute.
Validation: Block hashes are being newly created in real-time following the consensus algorithm.
Infrastructure: The API confirms that Pi Testnet is running on the authentic stellar-core v23.0.1 engine with full Soroban support.
This is 100% "the real deal," guys. The Soroban Core system is running as smooth as silk! The attached images show the results of the commands I used for verification.
For those in the industry who frequently work with major blockchain projects, one look at this data is enough to understand Pi’s level of credibility. To the "experts" who still claim Pi is just a "button-clicking game"—it’s time to drop that skepticism.
I’ll write more about this when I have time so that even non-tech folks can understand why this milestone is so crucial. That’s all for now!
