There’s been a lot of confusion lately, especially with Pi’s price dropping on some exchanges. People are worried, uninstalling the app, or thinking the project has failed. But if you take a closer look, the situation is very different from how it seems on the surface.
- Those Exchange Prices? They’re Not the Full Story
What you’re seeing on exchanges right now isn’t the real value of Pi. The mainnet coins—actual Pi—are still mostly locked and haven’t entered the market yet. What’s being traded are placeholder versions (IOUs) with limited liquidity. So any price right now is based on a tiny fraction of Pi, not the full network.
- The Ecosystem Isn’t Missing, It’s Being Built Properly
Some people ask why the ecosystem hasn’t launched with 100 apps as expected. The answer is: it’s being rolled out carefully. Launching everything at once with millions of users could overload the system and destabilize the economy.
Right now, the team is laying the groundwork—like the domain name registration phase (ends May 28) and upcoming auctions. This preparation is necessary to make sure everything works when the full ecosystem goes live.
- Early Exchange Listings Are Just a Phase
These early listings aren’t meant to define Pi’s price—they’re more of a stress test. They help gauge community reaction, identify short-term thinkers, and give long-term users a chance to understand the project better. This kind of dip is common in early crypto stages—even Bitcoin had it.
✓ What Matters Now
Don’t rush to judgment. The full launch hasn’t happened yet.
Get involved early—whether it’s through domain names, projects, or testing Pi apps.
Focus on real usage, not short-term prices. That’s what will drive value in the long run.
Final Thought
This isn’t a pump-and-dump project. It’s a long-term idea still taking shape. If you zoom out, the bigger picture becomes clearer. What’s happening now is part of the process—not the end of it.
