Pi Coin Price Slips 8%: Here’s Why

Pi price today has slipped close to 8% today and fell to $0.62, while its one-day volume rose more than 25% to $292.75 million. It’s worth noting that the crypto fell from its 24-hour high of $0.736, reflecting the highly volatile scenario hovering in the market.

Meanwhile, talking about the recent dip, Pi Network enthusiast Dr Altcoin said that the drop is attributed to an influx of Pi being unlocked and sent to centralized exchanges (CEXs), increasing the circulating supply and flooding the market with sellers.

The available circulating supply on CEXs grew from 354 million Pi Coin to 368 million Pi in just a few days, while the overall circulating supply reached 6.88 billion Pi. Dr Altcoin predicts the price may drop to $0.3 or lower in the coming months due to weaker demand. Besides, a recent Pi Network price prediction hints that the crypto might hover near the $0.63 level through April.

However, a healthy rebound is expected from August 2025 when the rate of Pi unlocking declines, he noted.

Factors that could stabilize or boost its price include more KYB-approved CEXs expanding into restricted markets, institutional buyers absorbing excess supply, and major updates from the Pi Core Team increasing demand. Companies like BANXA buying Pi Coin directly from CEXs could also help, he added.

Community Lauds ‘Slow’ Network Growth

As said earlier, the Pi Coin enthusiasts remain optimistic despite the recent dip. Notably, the Pi community is rallying behind the project’s slow and deliberate growth, with enthusiast and miner Tanner highlighting its strategic approach. While some may view the project’s pace as a weakness, Tanner argues that it’s a sign of Pi Network’s commitment to building a real economy, rather than just focusing on price charts.

With over 70 million users and 25 million KYC-verified individuals, Pi Network has prioritized creating a robust ecosystem, including a mobile-first crypto layer, a fork of Stellar’s SCP protocol, and a full KYC framework. The project’s phased launch approach is designed to prevent early market manipulation, stabilize liquidity, and align demand with real utility.

Meanwhile, Tanner emphasizes that Pi’s focus on utility and real-world adoption sets it apart from other projects. Tanner said that the Pi Economy is already live, with features like Pi Chain Mall, NFTs, and DeFi, and the project’s utility-first approach is expected to drive long-term growth.

In addition, the Pi community is encouraged to take action, such as running nodes, building with the SDK, and onboarding merchants, to contribute to the project’s momentum. With its risk-managed innovation and focus on durable growth, Pi Network is positioning itself for success in the long term.
