The recent Pi Network developments and the price performance of PI. These are the main topics we will touch upon in the following lines.<\/p>\n

The New Updates<\/h2>\n

Towards the end of August, the team behind Pi Network launched <\/a>the Pi Hackathon 2025: an event that encourages Pioneers to create real-world applications that expand the utility of the PI token.<\/p>\n

To boost interest, a 160,000-coin prize pool was awarded to the top eight teams. While the Hackathon was supposed to run until October 15, Pi Network\u2019s team has not yet revealed details about its conclusion.<\/p>\n

Another recent development is the upgrade of the AI-powered platform Pi App Studio. The Core Team unveiled<\/a> new updates \u201cto make app creation more accessible and customizable, and integrated within the ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next?<\/h2>\n

One popular X user who seems to be a fan of Pi Network\u2019s co-founder, Nicolas Kokkalis, summarized<\/a> the project\u2019s recent milestones and outlined what might be coming next. On the Testnet side, they noted sustained testing, AI-assisted development tools that improve daily operations, and the rollout of community-built apps that benefit the broader ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The X user envisioned the launch of Mainnet developments, such as strengthened security protocols, smart KYC and wallet systems, and further app integration.<\/p>\n

\u201cPi Network is evolving from testing \u2013 real-world utility & adoption. This shift will unlock true decentralized value for all Pioneers,\u201d they concluded.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Pi Price Outlook<\/h2>\n

Contrary to the advancements of Pi Network, the price of its native token remains among the worst-performing cryptocurrencies (at least from the top 100 club). Currently, it is worth around $0.20 (per CoinGecko\u2019s data), representing a 42% decline on a monthly scale and a whopping 93% crash compared to the all-time high of $3 witnessed in February.<\/p>\n

Indicators like the increased amount of PI stored on crypto exchanges and the upcoming token unlocks hint that the bulls might suffer even more in the short term. As of this writing, over 412 million PI are situated across such platforms, with nearly half that amount on Gate.io, whereas arond 116 million coins are set for release in the following 30 days. Both factors could lead to increased selling pressure.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the PI community has started losing hope that the asset\u2019s price could soon reclaim its record level. Earlier today, the Pi News account on X polled users when PI might set a new ATH. The majority (almost 54%) expect it in 2026 or later, while 33% see it happening this cycle.<\/p>\n
