At the start of the month, the Core Team <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-price-jumps-8-5-after-latest-updates-details\/\">announced<\/a> that the protocol v19.9 migration was successfully completed, while version 20.2 was scheduled for release around March 12. The official confirmation about the migration <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-core-team-celebrates-pi-day-2026-heres-what-every-pioneer-needs-to-know\/\">arrived<\/a> with the Pi Day celebratory announcement.<\/p>\n<p>Another major development was Kraken\u2019s decision to <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-token-listed-on-major-exchange-ahead-of-pi-day-details\/\">allow<\/a> trading services with Pi Network\u2019s native cryptocurrency. This happened just a day before Pi Day \u2013 the community\u2019s special date, celebrated because it matches the mathematical constant \u03c0 (3.14), and which is logically held annually on March 14.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the team marked the occasion by rolling out several ecosystem upgrades designed to boost utility, attract more developers, and strengthen the network\u2019s overall infrastructure. Some of the improvements include new Mainnet capabilities for Pi App Studio, advancements that enable future smart contract functionality, KYC validator rewards, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Most recently, Pi Network\u2019s team <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-token-plunges-10-even-as-second-migrations-roll-out\/\">disclosed<\/a> that second migrations have started and \u201cwill continue with a gradual rollout, opening the door for Pioneers to bring additional PI to Mainnet and further participate in the ecosystem.\u201d The post on X received mixed reactions: some users praised the move, whereas others <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ShadowPulse202\/status\/2033599163145892226\">questioned<\/a> why the team had launched a second migration when the first one hadn\u2019t been properly completed.<\/p>\n<h2>PI Remains Trending<\/h2>\n<p>The numerous developments surrounding Pi Network led to significant volatility in PI. The protocol updates, the listing on Kraken, and the anticipation of Pi Day <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-pi-price-explodes-30-today-heres-why\/\">boosted<\/a> the price to a five-month peak of almost $0.30. At one point, the asset\u2019s market capitalization neared $3 billion, making PI the 36th-largest cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>However, over the past few days, the price headed south just as rapidly in what <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-pi-plummets-30-in-classic-sell-the-news-crash-following-kraken-listing\/\">appeared<\/a> to be a classic \u201csell-the-news\u201d moment. As of this writing, PI trades at around $0.18 (per CoinGecko\u2019s data), representing a 9% daily decline and a 19% collapse over the week.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the downtrend, the asset remains one of the most-searched digital assets. It is the fifth-most trending cryptocurrency on CoinGecko today, surpassing well-known names such as Bittensor (TAO), Ethereum (ETH), and Bitcoin (BTC).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1431764\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1431764\" style=\"width: 1056px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1431764 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos.png\" alt=\"Top Trending Cryptocurrencies\" width=\"1056\" height=\"747\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos.png 1056w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-1024x724.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-768x543.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-90x64.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-127x90.png 127w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-1000x707.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-900x637.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-800x566.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-700x495.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-600x424.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-500x354.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-400x283.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-200x141.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Top-Trending-Cryptos-100x71.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1056px) 100vw, 1056px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1431764\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Top Trending Cryptocurrencies, Source: CoinGecko<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>What Lies Ahead?<\/h2>\n<p>In the following days, the daily token unlocks will exceed 15 million on a couple of occasions.
