Pi Network Primed for 100x Surge? Stellar Protocol 23 Upgrade Could Ignite Explosive Growth
Rumors swirl as Pi Network's long-awaited moment approaches. The Stellar Protocol 23 upgrade looms—could this finally trigger the 100x explosion early investors dreamed of?
Bulls eye breakout potential while skeptics yawn at yet another 'revolutionary' crypto promise. One thing's certain: the upgrade's technical merits will face merciless market scrutiny.
Will Pi Network defy the gravity of failed altcoin projects? Or join the crypto graveyard of overhyped also-rans? The Protocol 23 rollout becomes make-or-break.
Funny how every blockchain upgrade gets touted as 'the big one'—until trading volume tells the brutal truth. This time... maybe different?

THE END OF 2025.
MORE LIQUIDITY = ALTSEASON

Lower borrowing costs could stimulate new inflows into risk assets like cryptocurrencies, reviving altcoin season sentiment.
Stellar Protocol 23 Could Address Pi Network’s Biggest Limitation
Steller is set to deploy the latest version of its Protocol in September. This upgrade could benefit Pi Network, which is built on the Stellar Consensus Protocol and its core infrastructure.
Protocol 23 Timeline Updates
Key dates:
Aug 14: Testnet reset + stable builds available
Sep 3: Mainnet upgrade vote
The Aug 14 reset will clear ALL testnet data (accounts, assets, contracts.) Be ready to recreate what you need!
You'll need to upgrade ALL Stellar software…
While Pi Network infrastructure currently runs on the outdated Stellar Protocol 19, Pi community member Dr. Altcoin argues that Pi could skip intermediate upgrades and go directly to 23.
The upgrade could bring enhancements such as faster transaction speeds, smart contract capabilities via Soroban, and bridging to other blockchains.
Collectively, these enhancements make the Pi blockchain a more attractive platform for building, contributing to a thriving ecosystem and wider use case for ADA as a utility token.
The PI ecosystem continues to struggle with adoption. Its price action remains largely speculative, lacking a meaningful use case to sustain long-term growth.
This has also opened the door to liquidity issues, with short-term speculative trading amplifying inflationary pressure as PI token unlocks continue at an average rate of $2 million per day.
Pi Coin Price Analysis: Is This a 100x Setup for Pi Network?
While the upgrade remains speculative without confirmation from the Pi Core Team, its market-warming effect could help PI recover from its recent falling wedge breakdown.
The altcoin has found a new floor NEAR the 1.618 Fibonacci extension at $0.3215, forming a symmetrical triangle that could soon set it on the recovery path.
The apex nears, and momentum indicators show building bullishness. The RSI has reclaimed the neutral line, indicating buyers are regaining control.
More so, the MACD is widening its lead on the signal line after narrowly avoiding a bearish crossover, suggesting a short-term uptrend with staying power.
Should a breakout unfold, the triangle projects a short-term target around $0.42, reclaiming a previous strong support zone around $0.40.
With it, the PI coin price could push to retest past resistance at $0.52 and $0.65, marking a potential 81% gain from current levels.
While Stellar Protocol 23 could give Pi Network the framework for a broader reversal, real momentum will depend on long-term builder onboarding and ecosystem expansion.
A sharp parabolic move, such as a 100x rally, WOULD likely require a significant catalyst for new demand, like a tier-1 exchange listing to unlock major retail demand.
Pi Network Might Not See the Biggest Bull Run Gains
Pi coin price remains largely speculative without a thriving ecosystem to anchor its value, low-cap meme coins like TROLL are posting 2x gains in a single day.
On the speculative scene, attention is what attracts fresh retail flows. Few see as many tokens sharing the Doge brand. The last bull run saw Neiro; this one saw Dowge.
Now, speculators are watching closely for the next coin to carry the torch, and Maxi DOGE ($MAXI) is emerging as a frontrunner.
Built around this cycle’s biggest meme coin narrative, “mission coins,” it embraces a no-utility ethos.

Dozens more launchpads will come.
Millions of gamble coins will come and go.

Maxi Doge fuses gym-culture satire with trader degeneracy, presenting itself as more than just a meme coin, it’s a lifestyle asset.
The community is already growing and fast, raising over $500,000 in its initial presale weeks as its earliest holders are rewarded by a high APY on staking, currently at 586%.
