The Price of the Pi Network (Pi) Coin Has Plunged by Over 70%

The crypto market has been in a strong sell-off this month as the fear and greed index tumbled to 25. Among the top laggards is the price of the Pi Network (CRYPTO: PI), which has plummeted to a low of $0.80, its lowest level since February 2022. It has plunged by over 74% from its peak following the mainnet launch.

Three Reasons Why The Pi Coin Price May Surge

The four-hour chart shows that the Pi coin price has slumped in the past few weeks as most coins plunged and many holders dumped their tokens. It also dropped amid rising concerns about its dilution as the network is set to unlock over 1.6 billion tokens in the next 12 months.

Still, the value of Pi has bullish technicals, pointing to a surge in the coming weeks.

The chart shows that Pi has formed a double-bottom pattern at $0.7663. This is one of the most bullish reversal patterns in the market in most periods.

A giant wedge pattern can be seen if analyzing the highest swings since February 25 with the lowest levels since March 2. These two lines are now nearing their confluence levels, which points to a potential rebound.

Plus, the Pi Network has settled at the 78.60% Fibonacci Retracement level. Oscillators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the MACD have formed a bullish divergence pattern.

These patterns suggest more upside potential, with the next key level to watch at $1.80, which was its peak on March 13. This price is about 135% above the current level, partially explaining why it is the third most bullish token in terms of sentiment.

Pi Coin Exchange Listings

One reason the Pi coin price has crashed is that centralized exchange listings have remained elusive. Some exchanges, such as Bybit (NYSE:BBYT) have warned that they consider it a scam, while others have cited weak disclosures.

However, there are signs that some large-scale exchanges will list it in the coming months. Binance users have already voted massively to list the coin. With a market cap above $7 billion and a daily volume of over $300 million, Pi is among the most traded cryptocurrencies. As such, at some point, exchanges will want to join in.

Potential Pi Network Token Burn

One reason the Pi Network price has crashed is the ongoing fear of dilution. There are now 6.7 billion Pi coins in circulation against a maximum supply of 100 billion.

Developers are likely to announce a significant token burn soon. The most obvious burns would be the mined tokens that have not been migrated to the network. Burning these tokens could remove billions of tokens from future circulation.

Pi Network will likely introduce fee burns as its ecosystem applications become more popular in the long term.
