PI网络回应了最近的指控，将项目标记为骗局和MLM计划

PI网络已回应了最近的指控，将项目标记为骗局和多层营销（MLM）计划。该公司的发言人说，这些主张是错误的，并基于对项目及其转诊系统实际工作的误解。

Recently, Pi Network has responded to accusations that the project is a scam and its token has no value.

最近，PI Network回应了该项目是骗局的指控，其令牌没有价值。

Earlier this week, Bybit CEO Ben Zhou called Pi Network a “scam project” and said that his exchange would not be listing the PI token. Cyber Capital founder Justin Bons also had some critical remarks, calling it a “multi-level marketing type scheme” due to its referral system.

本周早些时候，Bybit首席执行官Ben Zhou称PI Network为“骗局项目”，并表示他的交流不会列出PI令牌。网络资本创始人贾斯汀·鲍恩斯（Justin Bons）也有一些关键评论，由于其推荐系统，它称其为“多层次营销类型计划”。

These comments have had a negative impact on Pi’s public image and its token value. After the mainnet launch on February 20, the price of PI reached a peak of $2.99 but has since dropped to around $0.82, according to data from CoinGecko.

这些评论对PI的公共形象及其代币价值产生了负面影响。根据Coingecko的数据，Mainnet于2月20日推出后，PI的价格达到了2.99美元，但此后已降至0.82美元左右。

However, Pi Network has now hit back at these claims, stating that they are false and based on misunderstandings of how the project and its referral system actually work.

但是，PI网络现在对这些说法进行了反击，称它们是错误的，并且基于对项目及其推荐系统实际工作的误解。

No Financial Cost to Join Pi Network

没有加入PI网络的财务费用

Pi Network says that its program cannot be defined as multi-level marketing because there are no financial costs involved in joining the network or participating in the referral system.

PI网络表示，其程序不能定义为多层营销，因为加入网络或参与推荐系统没有财务成本。

As explained by Pi Network, users can mine PI tokens for free using a mobile app. The company developed the project to create a decentralized ecosystem powered by a secure and efficient blockchain network. To join the network, users only need to download the app, complete a short verification, and begin mining.

正如PI网络所解释的那样，用户可以使用移动应用程序免费开采PI令牌。该公司开发了该项目，以创建由安全有效的区块链网络提供动力的分散生态系统。要加入网络，用户只需要下载应用程序，完成简短的验证并开始采矿。

The company also noted that its referral program is only one level deep. If Person A refers Person B, then only those two benefit from each other’s activity. But if Person B refers Person C, Person A does not receive any bonus or benefit from C’s participation. This clearly separates their model from traditional MLM structures, where commissions can trickle down across multiple levels.

该公司还指出，其推荐计划只是一个深度。如果一个人A引用人B，则只有这两个从彼此的活动中受益。但是，如果个人b提到人C，则A A不会从C的参与中获得任何奖励或受益。这清楚地将他们的模型与传统的传统传销结构分开，在这些结构中，佣金可以在多个层面上滴下来。

The referral bonus offered by Pi Network gives a 25% mining reward boost to both the person referring and the one being referred—but only when both are actively mining at the same time. Pi describes this as a simple incentive to encourage user growth and participation, similar to referral programs used by many tech and finance companies.

PI网络提供的推荐奖金给人带来了25％的采矿奖励和被转介的人提供了提高，但仅当两者同时积极开采时，才能提高奖励。 PI将其描述为鼓励用户增长和参与的一种简单动力，类似于许多技术和金融公司使用的推荐计划。

No Contact With Bybit for Token Listing

与bybit无接触以供令牌上市

In response to the claims made by Bybit’s CEO, Pi Network stated that it never contacted the exchange about a token listing.

为了回应BYBIT首席执行官的主张，PI网络表示，它从未联系过有关令牌上市的交易所。

Earlier this week, a Bybit spokesperson responded to rumors circulating on social media about a potential listing of the PI token. In a statement to Blockավארություն, the exchange confirmed that it would not be listing the token.

本周早些时候，一位Bybit发言人回应了在社交媒体上流传有关PI代币的谣言。在要阻止ավארություն的声明中，交易所确认它不会列出令牌。

The spokesperson added that in the past two years, a fake Pi Network account had contacted Bybit on Telegram, but the exchange’s anti-scam team quickly identified and shut down the account.

发言人补充说，在过去的两年中，一个伪造的PI网络帐户在电报上与Bybit联系，但交易所的反SCAM团队迅速确定并关闭了该帐户。

In response, Pi Network said that its team members only communicate using email addresses from the domain mineapi.io, and they would never contact any exchange using Telegram.

作为回应，PI Network表示，其团队成员仅使用来自Domain Mineapi.io的电子邮件地址进行通信，他们绝不会使用Telegram与任何交易所联系。

The company also shared a post from 2021, in which it warned the community about scammers impersonating Pi Network to approach exchanges.

该公司还分享了2021年的一篇帖子，该帖子警告社区有关骗子模拟PI网络进行交流的信息。

“We are aware that some individuals or groups are attempting to impersonate Pi Network in an effort to scam exchanges into listing the Pi token,” the post said. “We want to emphasize that no member of the Pi Core Team will ever contact any exchange using Telegram or any other messaging app.”

该帖子说：“我们知道，一些个人或团体正在试图模仿PI网络，以骗局交换列出PI令牌。” “我们要强调，PI Core团队的任何成员都不会使用电报或任何其他消息应用程序与任何交易所联系。”

Pi Network further explained that it is focused on building a strong, engaged community and delivering on its core mission to develop a new blockchain capable of supporting billions of users. The company added that it is grateful for the continued support from its growing community.

PI网络进一步解释说，它专注于建立一个强大的，参与的社区，并履行其核心使命，以开发一个能够支持数十亿用户的新区块链。该公司补充说，这对不断增长的社区的持续支持表示感谢。
