Pi Network’s native token PI experienced a sharp 50% decline, leading to accusations of insider selling. Blockchain investigators uncovered a transfer of 12 million PI during the token’s peak at $1.60, with community leader Dr. Picoin alleging that Core team members coordinated the sell-off.

The controversial transactions coincided with promotional announcements, which critics describe as a ’smokescreen’ to create exit liquidity. Market analysts note the pattern resembles classic rug pull strategies, though Pi Network’s decentralized framework makes accountability challenging.
