Dr. Chengdiao Fan Shares Pi Network’s Vision at TOKEN2049



At the TOKEN2049 conference, Dr. Chengdiao Fan, co-founder of Pi Network, gave a presentation that focused on how technology should serve people in practical ways. Her talk emphasized the importance of building blockchain applications that solve real problems, not just technical challenges or market trends.

She explained that Pi Network is working to make blockchain useful for everyday life. This includes creating tools that are easy to use, accessible to everyone, and designed with long-term value in mind. Dr. Fan also spoke about artificial intelligence, highlighting the need for systems that support human well-being. She believes that decentralized infrastructure can help guide AI development in a direction that respects people’s needs and values.

Another key point was the idea of mass adoption. Dr. Fan made it clear that reaching large numbers of users is not just about growth, it’s about making sure the technology is understandable, fair, and beneficial to all. Pi Network’s mission is to build a digital ecosystem where people can participate meaningfully, regardless of their background or technical knowledge.

Her message was consistent and thoughtful: technology should be built with people in mind. If you are interested in how blockchain and AI can be shaped to support real communities, her talk is worth watching.

While Satoshi Nakamoto Vanished, Nicolas Kokkalis Was Wiring The Brain Of Future AI

In 2011, the world of technology witnessed a quiet shift. While Satoshi Nakamoto—the mysterious creator of Bitcoin—stepped away from public view, another mind at Stanford University was laying the groundwork for something equally transformative. That mind was Nicolas Kokkalis, and his focus back then wasn’t on digital currency. It was on designing the nervous system of intelligent software—systems that could think, plan, and assist like human beings. His work didn’t make headlines, but it planted the seeds for how AI now interacts with us in daily life. What Was Kokkalis Building? Kokkalis wasn’t building robots or chatbots. He was designing software that could understand human tasks, organize them intelligently, and even learn from crowds of people online. His goal was to make digital assistants that behave more like real human helpers. Let’s explore two of his key projects from 2011: Project 1: Reminiscing a Person’s Life from His Lifelong To-Do List Published at CHI 2011  ...

Who Gets to Rewrite the Crypto Origin Story?

In October 2008, two things quietly entered the digital world. One was Bitcoin’s whitepaper—a document that would spark a global shift in how we think about money. The other was a Twitter account created by Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis. That overlap isn’t just trivia. It’s a moment worth pausing for. Bitcoin’s birth is well-known. But Nicolas’s quiet entry into the digital space that same month adds a strange symmetry. Years later, he would go on to build Pi Network—a project that doesn’t just echo Bitcoin’s ideals but claims to upgrade them. The Timing That Raises Eyebrows A Coin and a Creator Enter the Scene Imagine two digital seeds planted in the same soil, at the same time. One grows into a decentralized currency. The other, into a system that challenges its predecessor. That’s the setup we’re looking at. Bitcoin introduced peer-to-peer finance and decentralization. But it came with limits: slow transactions, energy-heavy mining, and no built-in identity layer. Pi Network steps in with a ...

Pi Network Just Cracked the Code to Global Finance

Pi Network ISO 20022 The world doesn’t wait for permission. It moves when systems align—and Pi Network just aligned with one of the most powerful financial protocols on Earth. ISO 20022 isn’t a trend. It’s the new language of money. And now, Pi speaks it fluently. Why ISO 20022 Changes Everything A Common Language for a Fractured System Imagine trying to coordinate a global orchestra where every musician reads a different sheet of music. That’s how cross-border payments have worked for decades—fragmented, slow, and prone to error. ISO 20022 fixes that by giving banks, payment providers, and now blockchain networks like Pi, a shared structure for secure and efficient transactions. This is about compliance and compatibility. Pi Network’s integration into ISO 20022 means it can now plug directly into the same rails used by traditional banks and financial institutions. That’s not a future possibility—it’s a present reality. ADVERTISEMENT From Theoretical to Technical Adoption For years...
