Pi Network’s Potential Binance Listing Fuels Market Optimism as PI Token Shows Resilience
Amid rumors of a potential Binance listing, Pi Network’s native token (PI) has demonstrated strong market resilience, stabilizing above key support levels and showing signs of impending volatility. With growing trading volume and positive price action, the cryptocurrency community is closely watching PI’s next moves.
Pi Network Binance Listing Rumors Spark Price Surge
Pi Network’s native token, PI, has demonstrated resilience in early May, stabilizing above the critical $0.61 support level after a prolonged correction. The coin now trades in a tight range between $0.60 and $0.65, with narrowing Bollinger Bands signaling potential volatility ahead.
Market activity shows notable momentum—daily trading volume reached $139.4 million as PI gained 5% intraday and 14% over the past month. This uptick coincides with speculation about an imminent Binance listing, fueled by claims from Pi Barter Mall that Pi Commerce Team is in final negotiations with the exchange.
Binance’s recent community poll regarding PI added credibility to the rumors, though neither party has confirmed the discussions. Traders appear to be positioning for a breakout, with technical indicators suggesting accumulation at current levels.

Pi Coin Gains Momentum Amid Binance Listing Speculation

Market activity reflects growing interest, with Pi Coin posting 5% daily gains and 14% monthly returns. Daily trading volume surged to $139.4 million as traders position for potential catalysts.

Abu Dhabi’s MGX Invests $2 Billion in Binance Using Trump-Linked Stablecoin
Abu Dhabi’s sovereign wealth fund, MGX, has finalized a landmark $2 billion investment in Binance using USD1, a stablecoin backed by the Trump family through World Liberty Financial. The transaction, announced at TOKEN2049 in Dubai, underscores accelerating institutional adoption of digital assets.
USD1 maintains its peg through reserves of U.S. Treasuries and cash equivalents. This deal represents one of the largest stablecoin-facilitated investments to date, signaling growing Middle Eastern capital flows into cryptocurrency infrastructure.
Failed Cryptos Flood the Market as Speculation and Fear Take Over
The cryptocurrency graveyard is expanding at an alarming rate. Data from CoinGecko reveals that more than half of all digital tokens launched since 2021 have already failed—approximately 3.7 million projects, or 52.7% of listings on GeckoTerminal. The first quarter of 2025 alone has added over 1.8 million new casualties, nearly surpassing the total for all of 2024.
This surge in failed projects stems from a toxic cocktail of economic uncertainty, reckless retail speculation, and the meme coin frenzy. Platforms like pump.fun have lowered the barrier to token creation to near-zero, spawning a deluge of fly-by-night projects with no real purpose or longevity. Binance estimates that 97% of meme coins die shortly after launch.
IRS Crypto Leaders Exit After Accepting DOGE-Linked Resignation Offers
The Internal Revenue Service faces a leadership vacuum in its digital asset division as two key figures depart under unusual circumstances. Seth Wilks and Raj Mukherjee, both recruited from crypto-native firms, accepted deferred resignation packages tied to a Department of Government Efficiency initiative involving Doge transactions.
Their exits mark a significant setback for the IRS Digital Asset Initiative launched in February 2024. Wilks brought tax compliance expertise from TaxBit, while Mukherjee’s background included senior tax roles at ConsenSys and Binance.US—experience now walking out the door on paid administrative leave.
The Trump administration’s broader efficiency drive appears to have inadvertently weakened crypto oversight capabilities. What began as a bureaucratic reshuffling has resulted in the loss of specialized talent crucial for navigating blockchain taxation complexities.
