Following the launch of the CORE Mainnet and the reported listing of the PiCoin on exchanges recently, the cryptocurrency projects Core DAO and Pi Network have both unexpectedly become top trends on social media platforms, particularly Twitter.
CORE DAO is already enjoying legitimate listing of it’s native token (CORE) after the project’s development team announced the deployment of its open Mainnet four days ago.
However, Pi Network is still operating in its enclosed mainnet with the speculations that Mainnet may be launched on the Pi day (March 14th, 2023).
For the benefits of newbies, we have highlighted major similarities and differences between Pi Network and CORE DAO as follows:

2. Because they can be mined on smartphones, they do not require much energy for mining.
3. Mining on both platforms does not require any fee unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Differences
