As Pi Network approaches the Open Mainnet phase, it is crucial to understand the dynamics behind Pi’s circulating supply and the significance of the Purity Badge ✅.
While the maximum potential circulating supply of #pi may eventually reach 10 billion, only a fraction—estimated at fewer than 1 million Pi—is expected to qualify for use at the Global Consensus Value (GCV). This is due to the irreversible status of Pi coins that have been transferred to centralized exchanges, resulting in the permanent loss of their Purity Badge ✅.
🧠 Core Team Insight
Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis: “Every Pi is scarce and valuable. Pioneers who persevere until the end will achieve great things in life.”
Dr. Chengdiao Fan: “10 Pi is enough for a generation. Pi is non-conformist!”

💼 Pi Wallet Balance Breakdown
1. Contribution Balance
Pi mined and never transferred to an exchange.
Retains the Purity Badge ✅.
Fully eligible for use at GCV.
2. Non-Contribution Balance
Pi that has been previously transferred to an exchange.
Purity Badge ✅ is permanently lost.
Ineligible for GCV-based use.
> ⚠️ Important: Once the Purity Badge is lost, it cannot be restored—even if the Pi is returned from an exchange.
