ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) regulations for crypto assets aim to address their environmental impact (e.g., energy-intensive mining), promote transparency, and ensure ethical governance practices to align the crypto industry with broader sustainability and societal goals. These regulations encourage compliance with standards that mitigate risks and foster trust in digital assets.

Name of the crypto-asset | Pi Network |
Consensus Mechanism | Pi Network uses a consensus mechanism derived from the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP), which is based on the Federated Byzantine Agreement (FBA). The network relies on a trust graph built from “Security Circles” created by individual users. Each participant adds trusted members to their Security Circle, and these interconnected trust relationships form the basis for validating transactions and securing the network. |
Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees | The Pi Network incentivizes user participation through a mobile-first mining system that distributes Pi tokens based on user engagement and contributions to network growth and security. Users, called Pioneers, earn tokens by logging into the app daily and actively participating in the creation of Security Circles, which help build the trust graph required for consensus. Transaction fees on the network are expected to remain low and accessible, and the governance of these fees will evolve as the network transitions fully to its open mainnet phase. |
