Pi Network Price Prediction: Can August 24 Catalyst Push PI Toward $0.15?

Pi Network (PI) is trading around $0.093 today, according to recent market data. Pi has recovered from its July lows, but the token is still struggling to turn that rebound into a confirmed breakout. Recent price history shows Pi closed around $0.095 on August 21 after reaching nearly $0.096.

That puts the focus on the $0.10-0.11 area, where analysts see the next major test.

What Will August 24 Bring for Pi?

The biggest immediate ecosystem event is the Pi App Studio pricing update on August 24. Pi Network is ending the heavily subsidized 0.25 Pi creation/editing fee for most applications. Pricing will instead better reflect the actual AI resources used, while apps showing genuine user activity can remain eligible for subsidies. Pi announced the change through its official channels.

The focus is to push developers toward useful applications with real users rather than simply encouraging experimentation. If this leads to stronger application activity, it could gradually improve Pi’s utility, although the update alone does not guarantee a Pi price rally.

Technically, Pi to Hit $0.12 or $0.15?

Analyst Kim H. Wong mentioned PI’s move from $0.07070 on July 14 to $0.09634 on August 21, roughly a 36% recovery. He believes the stronger crypto-market sentiment and improving price structure could help Pi challenge $0.12.

Technical analyst, Crypto With Gopal has a more bullish technical view. He says Pi is forming a double-bottom, with buyers defending the $0.07-$0.08 zone.

His key level is $0.11. A clean break above it could confirm the reversal and open a potential move toward $0.15.

Earlier analysis from the same analyst also identified a break above roughly $0.10 as important, with Pi needing to reclaim major moving averages to strengthen the setup.

Other Catalyst

The Pi price story is also being supported by Pi’s ongoing network development.

Protocol 26 has already been deployed on Mainnet, while Protocol 27 is now advancing on Testnet. The upcoming upgrade is designed to improve smart-contract authentication and is targeted for September 15. Recent reporting describes it as the final planned upgrade in the current sequence.

Pi has also released Node 0.6.2, bringing improvements to SoloHost, connectivity and the Pi Desktop experience. A distributed-computing test further expanded the potential use of Pi nodes.
