Start a Zero-Cost Business on the Pi Network Today
Most of the time, I’ve been concentrating on the price of Pi and how we can trade Pi Coin to make money from it. This is just a one-way thing. But today, I have started to go around what can profit me on Pi—and I’m sure it can profit you as well. That’s why I’m bringing this to you here on usebearer.
Maxwell Aloza says you don’t need thousands of dollars to start a business on Pi. Just one Pi Coin and a visionary mindset.
Now to give honor to whom honor is due. One of my followers made this possible for me because just yesterday, I made a post and Throne of Worship TV8420 came up and said:
“@usebearer, you are tired because all the reports about Pi are about the price. You have to go beyond price. Talk about the apps—how they can be used for businesses that have passed KYB. Talk about the potentials of Pi Coin. Advise your team through posts to keep mining and do KYC. Rome was not built in one day. For instance, I know that the number of subscribers and viewers you have on your blog today is not within a week or month.”
Oh Lord, that was about four and a half years of doing heavy work. Now you know—sometimes we might just be dwelling on something, and somebody gives you a nudge. That’s why presidents of countries even have advisors and ministers and all of that. And then immediately Throne of Worship said this, I’m like, hm, that’s actually true.
The Pi ecosystem has created loads of things we can use that can benefit us—instead of just dwelling on “today price is $1, tomorrow the price.” And then I started ramping through this. And boy oh boy, I am grateful I did. For the next few days on usebearer, you’re going to see incredible things about Pi that I’m going to bring to you that will benefit you. One of them is that you can create a business on Pi without coding.
Remember about some months ago, there had been this case of: you can now build an ecosystem—meaning a functional app—on Pi, and you can make Pi Ads just like Google Ads. Incredible, right? Yes. But then most of us might not know how to code. But presently you can do this for free—which is free coding—and that is what I’m bringing to you today.
There is an App Studio on the Pi app (still in beta). It says:
“Welcome to the Pi App Studio. The vision of the Pi App Studio is to empower everyday people to create, own, and operate apps without a technical background. Made possible through AI and the tools offered by Pi Network and its community.”
You have the Chatbot, the Custom Bot, and you can access all these apps and create new apps as the case may be. And the way it is—it’s actually free, at least if you are not editing. It says:
“Creating an app on Pi Network App Studio is designed to be cost-free. The platform uses AI to generate apps based on user descriptions and it doesn’t require any coding or traditional development costs. While there is a small fee for edits and updates—about 0.25 Pi—if you’re mining, you’d admit this.”
The initial app creation is free. So this is actually very good and something we should be looking into—if indeed you want to make money from Pi.
And you can see the list is endless. You can create an e-commerce store, work-net, transaction validator, ad flows… and wait—look at the number of people on it: 15,000 people saw this, 13,000, 12,000… You see what I’m saying? A lot of people are on Pi because they're in the millions—and if your project gets up, oh that will be nice. And that’s not all.
You have educational platforms, freelance platforms, wallet integration platforms, social media hubs—all of this you can do for free. And I am going to teach that here on usebearer so that you will be able to do these.
But of course, you know how I work—I just can’t listen to what someone said on Twitter and say, “Oh, I have information.” I have to go around and make sure it’s legit. So I tried it out. Hence, I went to minepi.com, which is the official Pi Network page—and I saw indeed they’ve launched.
Remember I said I was off for a few weeks trying to get the direction of usebearer to a new way—and then I discovered, oh, this thing has happened in truth and they have already released everything here.
Pi: A Solution to an AI-Driven World. It’s the ultimate technology. It includes blockchain, residency… all of these beautiful things going on here. And then I just bring this to you so that you know this is authentic.
Pi boasts one of the largest global crypto-enabled social networks with over 60 million engaged members across more than 200 countries and regions. Which means if you use the Pi App Studio—which is officially powered by Genie capabilities—it enables creators (not just engineers) to create and launch innovative blockchain-integrated AI applications. It supports Pi App Studio, Pi Ad Network, Pi Domains, Pi Wallet, and the broader ecosystem.
Of course, this can make you a lot of money, and the model is out.
What I’m going to do, actually, is go around and create one app for free—while showing you the process—right here on usebearer. I’ll also share how I brainstorm to do this in a future post. The reason I’m saying this here is because it’s in beta stage. So let’s know: where are we going to run through? Is there going to be another thing coming up? Because you know how all of these apps are—very funny. We might be excited at first, but at the end of the day, we want to make money. And that’s what I always look forward to when it comes to the creation of all of these products.
And there’s one thing I want you to see here. It’s something that convinced me totally, and it’s about the functionality of the apps you can create on this ecosystem. Let me read it to you:
“Instead of just creating and running apps, Pi App Studio—along with other existing Pi ecosystem components—enables the creation of functional online products. The need for guided workflow is based on Pi’s insight that not everyone has the expertise to build products. To enable anyone to build, solving engineering barriers is only half of the problem.”
I know that as Nigerians, most of us have these ideas that we want to put up as apps. Even if you think your app may not become the next Uber, at least it can tell you if your idea is valid.
If you create your own now and nobody uses it, then you can say, “Oh, maybe the idea I thought was good isn’t that great.”
And of course, I asked about creating an app and was told I need about $15,000 for it—which is over ₦26 million. And they’re not giving you users. They’re not giving you traffic. Nothing. Just an app. You don’t want to put your money into that without knowing if the idea is solid.
Just today, one of my friends said he was thinking of an app that could connect all bank accounts. You know how people running businesses might have 4, 5, or 6 accounts in different banks. Now, someone sends money to you and says, “I credited you from so-and-so company, Lagos branch.” You have to check GTB, Zenith, Access… one after another.
But what if you have an app that combines all accounts into one dashboard, just like Gmail does with email? It looks like a great idea, right? But the question is: how many people will use it? If you spend ₦26 million to build it and only 600 people use it, that’s a loss.
That’s why you need to test your ideas using Pi Network’s app studio—for free—to know if your idea can gain traction.
Let me chip this in: most people think their idea is the best and hold on to it tightly. But ideas alone are nothing. Really. Out of 100 ideas, only one survives. Because the real challenge is building the product and getting it to the market.
It’s the same with business. Everybody knows what to do—the real issue is capital.
That’s why this Pi App Studio is golden. You can test-run your idea without spending money. If it catches fire, then you can develop the real app—and smile to the bank.
Now talking about price:
Pi is down by 1%, at around $0.46. It even dipped further yesterday to $0.5, but has slightly rallied to $0.6 today.
Market cap is about $3.5 billion.
But sadly, the trading volume today is just $53 million. That’s worrying—especially compared to the old days of $12 billion in daily trades.
Unless something pops up to boost it, Pi has slowed down. But like I said, let’s keep working. The Pi Core Team says they’re working in silence to create a monumental coin. Let’s hope they succeed. Because honestly—if Pi doesn’t work, then what will?
Especially from Nigeria, where online opportunities matter—this is one of the few with real potential.
Some may choose to buy low—I’ve bought enough; I’m not buying again. But we can use Pi Domains, Pi Ads, Pi Apps, and more to make real money.
And that’s what I’ll be bringing you almost daily here on usebearer.
Am I confident in Pi? Not entirely.
But am I ready to take action and explore?
Absolutely yes.
And I’ll see you in the next post.
