#pi# that accidental click that changed my online path #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 web browsing session would lead me to meet Sister Wu—a stranger far away in Rui'an, whom I had never met before. I discovered her in a corner of a forum, where she had participated from the beginning to the end of what was then called a financing project. About three months later, I came across the Pi Network project while browsing online and actively inquired whether Sister Wu had participated in Pi Network. I then took the initiative to get an invitation link from her, and just like that, our life trajectories intersected in a wonderful way.

Sister Wu is a typical "old leek", having struggled for many years in traditional funding schemes, scarred 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 obviously a scam. As a newcomer in the crypto world, she is always attracted by various flashy packaging and exaggerated promises of returns, and inevitably becomes a target for being harvested.

As for me, I am an avid 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 unshakable habit for me, even though my friends around me have gradually shifted from enthusiastic participation to indifferent observation. Sister Wu is one of them—she has long stopped actively clicking, 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 bewildered gazes I faced when explaining blockchain concepts; the internal conflict and perseverance I felt when seeing negative reports. The most difficult time was during the market frenzy in 2021, when everyone around me was chasing various "hundred-fold 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 a considerable amount of savings, and our contact gradually decreased.

But I still believe in the potential of the Pi Network. The recent news about opening virtual machine ports has me very excited—this will be the opportunity for Pi to truly transform. Imagine, when the Pi ecosystem can run smart contracts, developers can build decentralized applications, our Pi coins will no longer just be a number, but will be able to 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. Perhaps it wouldn't have been so tortuous, but it definitely wouldn't be 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 even if they often stumble. And Pi Network carries our simple expectations for a fairer digital economy as ordinary people.

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, these six years of waiting and perseverance have made this journey itself a precious memory. In this rapidly changing digital age, sometimes slow is fast, and persistence itself is a form of wisdom. #逍遥派扫地僧# 🧹
