On March 14, 2019, a seed was quietly sown in the silence of the digital world. Its name is pi.

From that moment on, a long and lonely expedition began. We called ourselves "pioneers," carrying our longing for the brilliant starry sky as we embarked on this unknown path. We thought the journey ahead would be filled with fanfare and attention, yet we never anticipated that most of the time would be so quiet and lengthy.

This is an epic about "waiting".
The sun rises and the moon sets, spring goes and autumn comes. From 2019 to 2025, more than two thousand days and nights slip through our fingers. We watch the surrounding world bustling and changing, observing other projects fleeting like ephemera, while we can only tightly hold onto the "starlight" in our hands, persevering in silence.

The loneliness is deeply ingrained.

When the doubts from the outside world surge like tides, when the thought of "Have we already failed?" lingers in the late night, when companions around us gradually scatter due to confusion... We have no one to confide in, and can only swallow all the helplessness and hesitation alone under the star map we choose to believe in. We are like a group of night watchmen waiting for dawn in the darkness, and the only thing we can do is believe that the starry sky above our heads will eventually shine.

Later, we finally understood that this silence was not inaction, but rather a form of the deepest protection.

We never knew that during those most difficult years, the members of the core team chose the hardest path—"low-profile development." They were not silent; instead, in an unseen laboratory, they tirelessly forged every part of the starship day and night. They were not low-key; rather, amidst the massive waves of the market and the storms of regulation, they used wisdom and resilience to find the safest and healthiest route for this starship.

They are well aware that premature noise will only invite unnecessary risks. They choose to bear all the pressure and misunderstandings, pouring all their energy into one thing: protecting the health and success of the pi Network. They shielded us from open and covert attacks, just to allow this seedling to take deep root in solid soil.

Thus, the loneliness of the pioneers and the perseverance of the core team became two sides of the same coin on this journey. Our waiting is due to their escort; our confusion was ultimately illuminated by their achievements.

Today, as we look back on this journey that began in 2019, every night of torment has turned into the rings of growth, and every solitary wait has settled into the foundation of faith.

Pioneers, please give yourselves a round of applause.
Thank you to the self that never gave up amidst the rumors, and thank you to the self that still chose to believe in confusion. It is precisely our perseverance, along with the vision and responsibility of the core team, that has come together to form this starry sky that is about to greet dawn.

"Dreams come true" has never been a lighthearted blessing; it is a coronation for all those who do not give up their faith in the darkest moments. "May everything go smoothly, may your wishes come true, and may all be well" is our most sincere and deserved expectation for each other and for the shared stars we protect.

The stars will not disappoint those who are on the road.
The longest night has passed.

Dawn is just around the corner.

Salute to every pioneer.
Salute to each member of the core team.
Our starry sea will eventually
Arrived.
