This Pi now have Node version v0.3.4, this version is able to run the blockchain and enable selected candidate to follow the Pi testnet blockchain in real time, i think its good progress when testnet success then mainnet and i hope exchange will coming.
That Pi node news were developing 7 months ago and its now built, I dont know why its slow perhaps because of lack of developers. I notice one of their AMA and amused that their supporters are huge! Is this like a pyramiding scheme like past scams?
don't rush to conclude that this pyramid scheme is even a scam, They haven't sold even an ICO all this time so it's not a scam
