Pi Network Launches Rust SDK, Kicks Off Global Hackathon
Pi Network, a prominent blockchain project, has introduced a Rust-based Software Development Kit (SDK) to simplify smart contract development. The Pi Hackathon, a global event for developers, is currently underway, encouraging participants to create innovative Pi trading apps using this new tool.
The Pi Rust SDK, modeled after the Stellar Soroban Rust SDK, streamlines the smart contract creation process. It comes with a robust mainnet that handles resource and fee management, chain storage interaction, and WebAssembly contract execution. The SDK prioritizes security and asynchronous functionality, offering features like cryptographic hash creation, signature verification, persistent storage, and secondary contract calls.
The Pi Hackathon, open to global developers, invites participants to create Pi Commerce apps that connect merchants and users. The event, with submissions due by October 15, encourages the use of the new Rust SDK. It offers significant rewards, including 75,000 Pi for first place, 45,000 Pi for second place, 15,000 Pi for third place, and 5,000 Pi for honorable mentions. Developers are encouraged to integrate practical use cases into their smart contract apps for real-world use.
The release of the Pi Rust SDK aims to expand Pi Network's developer base, increase use cases of the Pi token, and create a more functional and innovative Pi ecosystem. The Pi Hackathon, with its substantial rewards, is a testament to Pi Network's commitment to fostering innovation and growth within its community.
