Pi Network Under Pressure: Token Unlocks Threaten Recovery Amid Market Slump
Pi Coin (PI) continues to struggle, trading at $0.60—far below its all-time high of $3. The project has lost $9 billion in market cap since its peak, now valued at just $4 billion as investor interest wanes.
Daily trading volume paints a bleak picture, plummeting from $800 million post-mainnet launch to a mere $42 million. This liquidity crunch comes as the network faces a wave of token unlocks: 231 million PI tokens this month, followed by 222 million in June. Over the next year, 1.4 billion tokens worth $853 million will enter circulation.
Market analysts highlight the irony—while a 90-year-old technical analysis theory suggests potential upside, fundamental challenges intensify. Pi Network’s inflationary tokenomics now test holder resolve as supply expands against shrinking demand.
