Your strategy will depend on which scenario unfolds when Pi’s Open Mainnet launches on February 20, 2025. Here’s what you can do in both cases:
Scenario 1: Pi is Listed on Exchanges (Tradable Market Model)
If Pi gets listed on major exchanges like Binance:
✅ Observe Initial Market Trends – Prices will likely be volatile, so avoid panic selling or buying.
✅ Set a Selling Strategy – If the price starts high (e.g., $100+), consider selling a portion to secure profits. If it’s low ($1–$10), holding might be wiser.
✅ Diversify – If Pi’s value increases significantly, you might convert some to stablecoins or other assets.
✅ Monitor Trading Volume – If liquidity is low, selling large amounts at once could drive the price down.
👉 Suggested Action: Wait for price stabilization before selling and avoid making emotional decisions based on early spikes or drops.
Scenario 2: Pi is Only Used for Payments (Closed Ecosystem Model)
If Pi is not listed on exchanges and is only used for buying goods/services:
✅ Find Merchants Accepting Pi – Look for businesses that allow Pi payments to use your holdings.
✅ Participate in P2P Transactions – Engage in community-driven marketplaces where users trade Pi for real-world items.
✅ Hold & Wait for Future Listings – If no exchanges list Pi initially, you can wait for potential future listings.
✅ Avoid Scams – Be cautious of unofficial exchanges or P2P deals that seem too good to be true.
👉 Suggested Action: Use Pi within the ecosystem if it’s widely accepted or hold until better opportunities arise.
Final Recommendation
If Pi is tradable, decide on a portion to sell based on price trends and keep some for potential future growth.
If Pi is not tradable, explore how to use it within the ecosystem while holding some for possible future exchange listings.
