As a researcher following the digital asset space, this particular crypto project continues to generate a lot of discussion – and I believe an upcoming development could significantly boost its profile even further.
Investment increased sharply in mid-March, but that growth didn’t last. Current market trends indicate another downturn could be coming soon.
Pi Network Gains a Top-Tier Spot
Consensus 2026, a major cryptocurrency conference, is happening in less than two months, and Pi Network has been announced as a sponsor. Several other prominent companies, including Grayscale, Google Cloud, Ripple, Circle, and Mastercard, are also sponsoring the event.
The announcement generated a lot of buzz within the Pi Network community, with many people noting its importance. For example, a user named Whale Hunter pointed out that Pi Network’s sponsorship includes a 20-minute presentation on the main stage, focusing on Pi and Artificial Intelligence.
Consensus 2026, a major blockchain and Web3 event, will take place in Miami from May 5th to 7th. Forbes has called it the biggest event in the space, comparing it to the Super Bowl of Blockchain and the World Cup of Web3. Around 20,000 people are expected to attend, and the speaker lineup includes prominent figures like Michael Saylor, Paul Atkins, Bo Hines, Arthur Hayes, Kevin O’Leary, Brad Garlinghouse, Tom Lee, and Justin Sun, among others.
Pi Network has a history of participating in major cryptocurrency events. Last year, they were a Gold Sponsor at TOKEN2049, a large crypto conference held in Singapore.
The Protocol Updates
In early March, the Pi Network team announced the successful completion of the v19.9 upgrade. Then, on March 14th – Pi Day – they released version 20.2, which included the initial features for supporting smart contracts. As one user on X, drealFx, noted, this was a significant development.
Pi is evolving beyond just a cryptocurrency; it’s developing into a complete and usable blockchain platform.
The team will roll out new features slowly, focusing on those that are most helpful to users. Pi Network announced that the next upgrade will be version 21, but didn’t say when it will be released.
PI Price Outlook
Recent improvements and Kraken allowing trading with PI caused a significant price increase for the asset, which peaked at about $0.30 less than two weeks ago – a five-month high.
The recent price increase didn’t last, and the value quickly fell again, reaching a low of $0.17. Currently (according to CoinGecko), PI is trading around $0.18, which is about a 20% decrease over the past two weeks.
The next few weeks could be quite volatile as a large number of tokens become available. Over 175 million tokens will be released over the next month, with a particularly large release of 15.2 million tokens scheduled for April 2nd.
