Can Pi Network Hit $10 by December 28?

Published by

Pi Network’s price fell over the weekend, dropping to $0.532, down 20% from last week’s high and 56% down from its May peak. This decline has pushed its market cap below $4 billion, despite several big updates on Pi Day 2.

Pi’s Price Drops Despite Major Updates

The Pi Core Team announced new features, including an AI initiative, upgrades to the Pi App Studio, and a new Ecosystem Directory Staking system that lets users stake Pi to boost app visibility. Other highlights included integration with Onramper, a new Pi Wallet upgrade, and Node version 0.5.2 with improved security.

The price still failed to rally as no exchange listing was announced, and concerns such as the upcoming token unlocks and the project’s centralized control have yet to be resolved. 

Token Unlocks Threaten to Add $215M in Sell Pressure

Between late June and July 2025, approximately 276 million Pi tokens, representing about 3.7% of the circulating supply, are set to be unlocked. This will introduce over $215 million in sell pressure to the market. Historically, similar token unlocks have led to major price declines, ranging from 30% to 77%, and there is a strong possibility this pattern could repeat.

Currently, Pi lacks major exchange listings, enterprise partnerships, and fresh capital inflows, all of which are critical for price support and growth. With the absence of these factors, Pi is at risk of falling further or staying flat near its current lows.

Big Move Expected In The Year-End

The next big day is scheduled for December 28, 2025 (Pi Year-End Summary Day), which is still several months away. If no strong market catalyst emerges in the near term, then a strong rebound appears unlikely.

According to CoinDCX, Pi Network is set for a bullish second half of 2025. It may start around $1.20 in July and reach up to $2.80 by December. It may see a small dip in September before picking up again.

Pi Coin Short-Term Price Prediction

Pi Network started the month around $0.70 and dropped steadily, hitting a low around $0.42 mid-month. Around June 24-26, the price surged near $0.66 before falling again. Currently, it is trading around $0.52, a level that has been tested multiple times and may act as short-term support. 

However, Pi Coin could be setting up for a bounce. It recently broke out of a bullish falling wedge pattern and is now retesting the breakout level. If momentum builds, the next target could be the key $1 mark.

FAQs

Why did Pi Network’s price drop despite recent updates on Pi Day 2?

Pi Network’s price fell to $0.532, down 20% from last week and 56% from its May peak, despite new features like AI initiatives and staking. The lack of major exchange listings, unresolved centralization concerns, and upcoming token unlocks contributed to the decline.

What are the key updates announced by the Pi Core Team on Pi Day 2?

The Pi Core Team announced an AI initiative, upgrades to Pi App Studio, a new Ecosystem Directory Staking system for app visibility, Onramper integration, a Pi Wallet upgrade, and Node version 0.5.2 with improved security.

Is Pi coin a good investment?

The investment outlook for Pi Coin in 2025 is mixed and highly speculative. While some analysts have ambitious long-term price predictions ($500-$1,000 by 2030), others offer more conservative short-term forecasts. Pi’s potential relies heavily on its transition to a fully open mainnet, major exchange listings, and real-world utility, which are still developing. Investors should be aware of high volatility and liquidity risks.
