Pioneers come here! I want to teach you something which I found very useful:
As we approach Pi Network’s open mainnet, many pioneers wonder: What happens if GCV ($314,159/Pi) is achieved? Will Pi’s exchange price be lower, higher, or match GCV? Here’s an interesting perspective:
💡 If GCV is widely accepted, sellers may refuse to sell Pi cheaply on exchanges. Why? Because:
✅ Why sell for $10–$100 on an exchange when you can use it for much greater value within the Pi ecosystem?
✅ If businesses accept Pi at high value, holding onto it makes more sense than selling at a low price.
✅ As a result, buying pressure increases, fewer people sell cheap, and Pi’s exchange price could rise—maybe even surpassing GCV!
🔹 What Could Happen If Exchange Prices Go Higher Than GCV?
1️⃣ Businesses might adjust their GCV rates upward to match the market.
2️⃣ Pi could become a store of value like Bitcoin, making people want to hold it long-term.
3️⃣ More businesses may rush to accept Pi, further boosting demand and value.
🔥 Conclusion: If Pi is widely accepted and pioneers believe in its long-term potential, exchange prices could rise instead of drop. Pi’s value will depend on real-world adoption and how pioneers use it!
