Expert Predicts Pi Network Price Volatility After Shady Activity On Banxa

Highlights
- Pi Network price could be hit with a wave of volatility in the coming days.
- An expert is raising alarm over multiple new accounts with small amounts of Pi.
- Pi can reach a new all-time high if major US banks embrace it.
Pi Network price is staring down the barrel of a gun as it faces the grim prospects of heightened price volatility. Cryptocurrency analyst Dr Altcoin warns that an avalanche of new accounts on Banxa with small Pi balances poses increased danger for the Pi Network price.
Dr Altcoin Warns Of Price Volatility From Banxa Account Activity
Pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst Dr Altcoin has urged Pi Network investors to brace for the impact of incoming price volatility. Dr Altcoin revealed in an X post that a coordinated account activity on the cryptocurrency trading platform Banxa may affect Pi Network price stability.
He opines that Banxa is allowing the creation of multiple accounts, with a common denominator being their funding with small Pi Coin balances. The new accounts all have a balance of 0.98 Pi valued at around $0.61 in coordinated fashion.
“Banxa is creating many new accounts, each with a balance of 0.98 Pi,” said Dr Altcoin. “This could lead to price volatility.”
While the entity behind the synchronized account creation remains unknown, Dr Altcoin notes that extreme price volatility is on the horizon. Firstly, small wallets have seen action in wash trading scams to simulate fake market activity. Secondly, a concerted sale of Pi Coins in the wallets can create artificial sell pressure for Pi Network.
By keeping Pi balances under the 1 Pi mark, the entity is attempting to sidestep exchange rules and avoid detection.
In early April, Banxa launched support for Pi Network allowing users to buy, sell and hold Pi Coins. Since the integration, there have been over 1.2 million Pi Coin buys on Banxa,
Pi Network Records Significant Whale Activity
While Banxa accounts are buying miniscule amounts of Pi, whales are loading up their holdings with seismic purchases. The number of Pi Coins on exchanges dropped from 365 million to 359 million in under 48 hours. The decline of 6 million Pi Coins from exchanges is considered a sign of whales stacking up on the asset.
For now, it is unclear if the heightened whale activity is connected to the Banxa account activity. If connected, a classic pump and dump scheme may be in the offing for Pi Network price.
The whale activity comes amid the unlocking of 10 million Pi with 213 million Pi Coins to be unlocked in April.
At the moment, Pi Network price is trading at $0.6 and shows no signs of wild price volatility. Pi Network’s momentum is surging to new levels, flashing indicators to reclaim the $1 dollar mark.
There is speculation that Pi Coin can reach highs of $30 if top banks start using Pi with a chain link integration driving up a short-term burst to $3,
