Thanks for your very quick response, and with a link to schedule an appointment. I was able to find you on LinkedIn, for example, and having had a number of traumatic experiences with a very large bank, I'd like to learn further about the Meridian bank you seem to represent, before I schedule an appointment with you, and to invite you to join the open WUaS Weekly Business Meeting in doing so, and on an upcoming Monday at 10 am Pacific Time, as part of this process (eg to learn about how you'd like to buy shares in WUaS, and your organization).

Interesting to learn recently that well-coded Pi cryptocurrency, now on the Mainnet block chain, can also be used to buy things newly.

Pi is a new digital currency developed by Stanford PhDs, with over 55 million members worldwide. To claim your Pi, follow this link https://minepi.com/sgkmac and use my username (sgkmac) as your invitation code.

The status of the Pi Network mainnet is a point of frequent update, but based on recent information, the network launched its Open Mainnet on February 20, 2025. This transition allows Pi coins to be used for transactions outside of the internal ecosystem and enables trading on several cryptocurrency exchanges. [123]

Using Pi Coin to Buy Things
You can now use Pi coins for purchases, primarily through community-driven platforms and local merchants that have integrated the currency.
  • Within the Pi Ecosystem: The
    Pi Browser

    is the central hub for applications (dApps) that accept Pi. Marketplaces like Pi Chain Mall and other community-built apps facilitate the exchange of Pi for goods (electronics, accessories, clothing) and services (freelance work, graphic design).
  • Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Transactions: Many transactions happen directly between users or with small local businesses (e.g., restaurants, small shops) in various countries, particularly across Asia and Africa, often organized through community forums and events like "PiFest".
  • Limitations: While you can buy items in these specific contexts, Pi is not yet a mainstream form of payment on major retail websites. The scope of what you can buy depends largely on the community-driven supply of goods and services in your local area or online community. [34567]

Trading on Exchanges
The launch of the Open Mainnet removed the firewall that previously restricted external connectivity, meaning Pi can now be traded on some centralized exchanges.
  • Available Exchanges: Pi (PI) is available for trading on exchanges such as OKX, Bitget, and MEXC.
  • Major Exchange Status: As of the latest information, major exchanges like Binance and Coinbase have not officially listed Pi, often citing ongoing concerns about regulatory compliance and transparency.
  • KYC Requirement: To access external trading and transfer your mined Pi to your mainnet wallet, you must complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process. [8910]

In summary, the transition to an open network has expanded the possibilities for using and trading Pi coin, moving it from a purely speculative asset to one with emerging real-world utility within its growing ecosystem. [311]

Hi Rifai in Sri Lanka, and Partha Mazumdar (US state department), US senator and former Harvard Law professor Elizabeth Warren, all,  

Thanks for your email this morning, Rifai, and regarding being able to sell and buy things newly with Pi cryptocurrency, which leads me to wonder how all Sri Lankans could get (buy in a sense) Stanford Mine Pi free money daily and to use in daily monetary transactions, for free, and to end poverty there. What do you think? 

Just posted to TwitterX and LinkedIn the following about possibly distributing Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency to all 22 million people in Sri Lanka and with free universal education (building on ocw.mit.edu) also potentially from WUaS in a #GrowWithGoogleWUaS program ... 

I also asked Gemini AI the following, and received helpful replies - 

what percentage of the population in the country of Sri Lanka with 22 million people have smartphones

80% of the population in Sri Lanka own smartphones, according to recent data.

what's the level of poverty in the country of Sri Lanka and per gross domestic product

The World Bank estimates that poverty in Sri Lanka rose to nearly 26% in 2024 (using the $3.65/day poverty line). The country's GDP per capita (nominal) was about $4,516 in 2024, with a Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) GDP per capita estimated around $15,632

As you may know, WUaS seeks to end poverty worldwide among all 7.9 billion people on the planet, each a Wikidata PIN # from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and developing a specific country focus like with Sri Lanka might be a great way to begin this. And see the PPS regarding how El Salvador in central America is the only nation to adopt a cryptocurrency, which is bitcoin. 

Partha, could teh US state department help develop and distribute Stanford Mine Pi Cryptocurrency for all ~22 million Sri Lankans, and with free highest quality education, and degrees too?


All the best, Yogically, Friendly Quaker regards, more later,
Scott




PS

Here's an invitation to you to get Pi free money daily, which takes less than 5 seconds every 24 hours to mine to get 2-5 Pi coins daily:

Pi is a new digital currency developed by Stanford PhDs, with over 55 million members worldwide. To claim your Pi, follow this link https://minepi.com/sgkmac and use my username (sgkmac) as your invitation code.

(I've accumulated about 6800 Pi coins to date).

And see Agenda item 5, in particular, in this M 11/10/25 WUaS News & Agenda, and also the whole WUaS Weekly Business Meeting re Gemini AI's response in particular- 

In World University and School WUaS seeking to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet and to end poverty from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University, and with a  WUaS partnering email from Pi cryptocurrency Network, how best can WUaS end poverty for, say the poorest billion people, and in seeking to distribute PI to all ?

Question I and World University and School WUaS asked Gemini AI - 

Is the pi cryptocurrency Network at all focusing on getting a single country to adopt pi cryptocurrency?


Gemini AI - 
No, Pi cryptocurrency has not been successfully developed as the main national currency in any country.

While Pi Network has a large, global community and is used for trade and services in an enclosed ecosystem in many countries, Bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that has been adopted as legal tender by any nation (El Salvador, and briefly, the Central African Republic)

Hi !

Hope you are doing well? Pi can be converted to other cryptocurrencies now.

I suggest you to convert Pi to XLM and use XLM to create a token / add liquidity.

I tried it. It worked. If you need further funding for the UBI project you can go to:


Regards,

Rifai



Hi Rifai in Sri Lanka,

As you know, World Univ & Sch, with a partnering email from Pi cryptocurrency, is seeking to distribute Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency to most of all 7.9 billion people on the planet and to end poverty globally in doing so.

Interesting to learn that well-coded Pi now on its mainnet block chain can also be used to buy things newly. 


Please invite your networks to get Pi to join this project.

Thanks,
Scott 












Hi !

That's good to hear. You could try integrating WUAS with Pi and building an ecosystem.

Please find below the regulatory stance of CBSL (equivalent of Federal Reserve). We cannot use cryptocurrencies as legal tender (not even Bitcoin or stablecoins), so a careful approach has to be taken. No banks recognise them. No exchanges (Binance P2P operates offshore). Even the majority of the public do not use.

It is limited to IT centric youth, modern investors and scammers. Even I am using for experiments without purchasing.

There could be improvements in the future as the Governor has proposed to the Government on regulating cryptocurrencies.



Regards,

Rifai

Hi Rifai (at Freedom College) in Sri Lanka, All, 

Thanks for your helpful email reply to many of us! 

Bitcoin can be used as an umbrella term for all (~25,000 digital coin creations in recent years, I read on Google! - incredible) cryptocurrencies; and see the PS below, where Harvard increases its holdings in BitCoin substantially. (US senator and former Harvard Law Professor Elizabeth Warren above may be in a position to follow how all the large banks in the world could be developing with cryptocurrencies and regarding Harvard's cryptocurrency holdings in their massive endowment). And it looks like the El Salvador bitcoin experiment ended this year, but with something learned, and about which I added to this blog post - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2025/11/rathamilla-lumnitzera-littorea-mangrove.html. Gemini AI may be a help in related questions as well, and see again -  https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2025/11/rathamilla-lumnitzera-littorea-mangrove.html.

Was wondering if WUaS could develop a Pi cryptocurrency UBI experiment for all 22 million Sri Lankans (https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University), and per your "" and then develop this model for all of India and Bangladesh + ... but I haven't read yet that Pi is taking a country by country build-out approach and see again - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2025/11/rathamilla-lumnitzera-littorea-mangrove.html.

That said, I just attended a Stanford Law CodeX presentation yesterday, Th 11/20/25 where the Pacifica App in Brazil with its federal government to help impoverished mothers with speeding up access to government benefits like cash ... is a success. And Brazil has something like 213 million people, and a similar number of smartphone connections ... Could this Pacifica App have been coded out of a network with Stanford Law CodeX re its executive director Roland Vogl (who is selecting speakers with a focus on justice issues in the law too)? And Stanford PhDs created Pi cryptocurrency so I think that WUaS and potentially Sri Lanka World Univ & Sch WUaS.- https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Sri_Lanka and in https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Sinhala_language and Tamil etc -  collaborating somehow with Stanford Law CodeX too and re the WUaS Pi cryptocurrency partnering email re https://minepi.com/sgkmac - could have much merit. 

Further thoughts? Stay tuned. 

Regards, 
Scott

The status of the Pi Network mainnet is a point of frequent update, but based on recent information, the network launched its Open Mainnet on February 20, 2025. This transition allows Pi coins to be used for transactions outside of the internal ecosystem and enables trading on several cryptocurrency exchanges. [123]

Using Pi Coin to Buy Things
You can now use Pi coins for purchases, primarily through community-driven platforms and local merchants that have integrated the currency.
  • Within the Pi Ecosystem: The
    Pi Browser

    is the central hub for applications (dApps) that accept Pi. Marketplaces like Pi Chain Mall and other community-built apps facilitate the exchange of Pi for goods (electronics, accessories, clothing) and services (freelance work, graphic design).
  • Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Transactions: Many transactions happen directly between users or with small local businesses (e.g., restaurants, small shops) in various countries, particularly across Asia and Africa, often organized through community forums and events like "PiFest".
  • Limitations: While you can buy items in these specific contexts, Pi is not yet a mainstream form of payment on major retail websites. The scope of what you can buy depends largely on the community-driven supply of goods and services in your local area or online community. [34567]

Trading on Exchanges
The launch of the Open Mainnet removed the firewall that previously restricted external connectivity, meaning Pi can now be traded on some centralized exchanges.
  • Available Exchanges: Pi (PI) is available for trading on exchanges such as OKX, Bitget, and MEXC.
  • Major Exchange Status: As of the latest information, major exchanges like Binance and Coinbase have not officially listed Pi, often citing ongoing concerns about regulatory compliance and transparency.
  • KYC Requirement: To access external trading and transfer your mined Pi to your mainnet wallet, you must complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process. [8910]

In summary, the transition to an open network has expanded the possibilities for using and trading Pi coin, moving it from a purely speculative asset to one with emerging real-world utility within its growing ecosystem. [311]

Hi Rifai in Sri Lanka, and Partha Mazumdar (US state department), US senator and former Harvard Law professor Elizabeth Warren, all,  

Thanks for your email this morning, Rifai, and regarding being able to sell and buy things newly with Pi cryptocurrency, which leads me to wonder how all Sri Lankans could get (buy in a sense) Stanford Mine Pi free money daily and to use in daily monetary transactions, for free, and to end poverty there. What do you think? 

Just posted to TwitterX and LinkedIn the following about possibly distributing Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency to all 22 million people in Sri Lanka and with free universal education (building on ocw.mit.edu) also potentially from WUaS in a #GrowWithGoogleWUaS program ... 

I also asked Gemini AI the following, and received helpful replies - 

what percentage of the population in the country of Sri Lanka with 22 million people have smartphones

80% of the population in Sri Lanka own smartphones, according to recent data.

what's the level of poverty in the country of Sri Lanka and per gross domestic product

The World Bank estimates that poverty in Sri Lanka rose to nearly 26% in 2024 (using the $3.65/day poverty line). The country's GDP per capita (nominal) was about $4,516 in 2024, with a Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) GDP per capita estimated around $15,632

As you may know, WUaS seeks to end poverty worldwide among all 7.9 billion people on the planet, each a Wikidata PIN # from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University - and developing a specific country focus like with Sri Lanka might be a great way to begin this. And see the PPS regarding how El Salvador in central America is the only nation to adopt a cryptocurrency, which is bitcoin. 

Partha, could teh US state department help develop and distribute Stanford Mine Pi Cryptocurrency for all ~22 million Sri Lankans, and with free highest quality education, and degrees too?


All the best, Yogically, Friendly Quaker regards, more later,
Scott




PS

Here's an invitation to you to get Pi free money daily, which takes less than 5 seconds every 24 hours to mine to get 2-5 Pi coins daily:

Pi is a new digital currency developed by Stanford PhDs, with over 55 million members worldwide. To claim your Pi, follow this link https://minepi.com/sgkmac and use my username (sgkmac) as your invitation code.

(I've accumulated about 6800 Pi coins to date).

And see Agenda item 5, in particular, in this M 11/10/25 WUaS News & Agenda, and also the whole WUaS Weekly Business Meeting re Gemini AI's response in particular- 

In World University and School WUaS seeking to code for all 7.9 billion people on the planet and to end poverty from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University, and with a  WUaS partnering email from Pi cryptocurrency Network, how best can WUaS end poverty for, say the poorest billion people, and in seeking to distribute PI to all ?


"A strategy to help the poorest billion people could involve World University and School (WUaS) combining educational opportunities with the distribution of Pi cryptocurrency. WUaS could use its "coding for all" initiative to build utility for the Pi token, which could then be distributed as Universal Basic Income or micro-loans, while educational programs address skills gaps and financial literacy needed for successful adoption. More information is available on the wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org website"

How is bitcoin used as the national currency in El Salvador?





In El Salvador, Bitcoin’s Retreat Left Valuable Lessons

By José Ignacio Hernández
March 17, 2025



El Salvador Adopted Bitcoin as an Official Currency; Salvadorans Mostly Shrugged

In an effort to boost financial inclusion, El Salvador made Bitcoin an official currency and offered incentives for adopting it.




A Poor Country Made Bitcoin a National Currency. The Bet Isn’t Paying Off.

It brought El Salvador’s president, Nayib Bukele, the adulation of the tech community, but reduced scarce funds and moved the nation closer to default.
