Features of the Transaction System

1. Mechanism of the Closed Mainnet

On the Closed Mainnet, secure transactions between verified users are guaranteed. Each transaction has the following characteristics:

  • Guarantee of transaction records by blockchain
  • Low transaction fees
  • Real-time transaction confirmation

2. Relation to Pi Fest 2024

Pi Fest 2024 concluded on November 5, 2024, but this transaction was conducted after the festival ended. This serves as an important indicator showing the continuous development of the Pi Network ecosystem.

Analysis of Real Transaction Value

The selling prices of the Honda Civic 2024 in Japan are as follows:

  • LX Grade: 3,448,500 JPY = approx. 571.88 JPY per 1 Pi
  • RS Grade: 4,198,700 JPY = approx. 696.3 JPY per 1 Pi
  • e:HEV EX (Hybrid): 4,307,000 JPY = approx. 714.26 JPY per 1 Pi

This may vary depending on whether it’s new or used, options, and grade, but it might serve as a reference.
While this is an achievement showing such a large purchase is possible, some users feel the unit price is too low.

Significance of the Transaction

This transaction serves as an important indicator for the Pi Network:

  • Recorded as a real transaction of a high-value item
  • Functions as a standard indicating the specific value per 1 Pi
  • Demonstrates the feasibility of large-scale transactions on the Closed Mainnet

The 1 Pi unit price is noteworthy as a value indicator in Pi Network’s real transactions.

Pi Network is planning significant developments towards the end of 2024:

  • Publication of the Pi Fest 2024 summary report
  • Preparation for Open Mainnet migration by the end of 2024
  • Further promotion of local commerce transactions
  • Expansion of the transaction ecosystem

Summary

This transaction case serves as an important indicator demonstrating the practicality and potential of Pi Network. Real transactions by Pioneers who have completed KYC verification and coin migration are proving the platform’s reliability. Further expansion of transactions, centered on local commerce, is expected in the future.
