#pi# that accidental click that changed my online trajectory #加密项目计划#

On an ordinary afternoon in June 2019, I was scrolling through my phone at home as usual. At that time, I had no idea that a casual online browse would lead me to meet Sister Wu—a stranger far away in Rui'an whom I had never met. I discovered her in a corner of a certain forum, where she had participated from the beginning to the end of the so-called capital pool project. After about three months, I came across the Pi Network project while browsing online and proactively asked Sister Wu if she had participated in Pi Network. I then obtained an invitation link from her, and just like that, our life trajectories intersected in a remarkable way.
Sister Wu is a typical "old leek," having struggled in traditional fund schemes for many years, bruised and battered yet still persistent. Her understanding of blockchain remains superficial, often mentioning "decentralization" but unable to articulate its meaning. I still remember the naive enthusiasm she showed when she first bragged about a project that was clearly a scam. As a novice in the crypto world, she is always attracted by various flashy packaging and exaggerated promises of returns, and inevitably becomes a target for harvesting.
As for me, I am an enthusiast who is almost obsessed with Pi Network. Over the past six years, I have witnessed Pi's growth from its initial concept to now having tens of millions of users. Clicking the lightning every day has become an unchanging habit for me, even though the friends around me have gradually shifted from enthusiastic participation to now being indifferent spectators. Sister Wu is one of them—she no longer actively clicks, and her account may have been dormant for a long time.
In these six years, I have experienced too many heartbreaking moments. The embarrassment of being regarded as a pyramid scheme when recommending Pi to friends and family; the confused looks I faced when explaining blockchain concepts; the inner turmoil and persistence I felt when seeing negative reports. The hardest time was during the market frenzy in 2021, when everyone around me was chasing after various "hundredfold coins," while I still held on to my Pi, like a stubborn guardian. At that time, Sister Wu was also caught up in a certain DeFi project and lost quite a bit of her savings, and our contact gradually diminished.
But I still believe in the potential of the Pi Network. The recent news about opening virtual machine ports excites me greatly—this will be the opportunity for Pi to truly transform. Imagine, when Pi's ecosystem can run smart contracts, developers can build decentralized applications, our Pi coin will no longer just be a number, but can truly circulate and be used in rich scenarios. I seem to see the prototype of a parallel world, where ordinary people like me and Sister Wu can also enjoy the changes brought by blockchain technology.
Sometimes I wonder what my Pi journey would have been like if I hadn’t clicked that link back then. Maybe it wouldn’t have been so winding, but it certainly wouldn’t have been as rich. Although Sister Wu has faded from the scene, she represents the curiosity and attempts of countless ordinary people in China towards new things, even if the methods are clumsy and they often stumble. And Pi Network carries the simple expectations of us ordinary people for a fairer digital economy.
The opening of the virtual machine port may be just around the corner, and at that time, will I contact Sister Wu again? Tell her that this little thing we insisted on clicking back in the day is finally about to迎来它的春天了. Regardless of the outcome, the six years of waiting and perseverance have made this journey itself a precious memory. In this fast-changing digital age, sometimes slow is fast, and persistence itself is a kind of wisdom. #加密市场反弹#
