Recently, some users have been spreading warnings far and wide, telling their followers to “STAY AWAY FROM PI.” Their claim? That Pi dropped from an all - time high of $2.30 to $0.55. But hold your horses! Let's dig deeper and set the record straight. 😤

## ❌ The Wrong Info: Setting the Record Straight on Pi's ATH
First things first, these so - called “experts” got a basic fact wrong. PI's REAL All - Time High was $2.99, not $2.30. It's like they're trying to navigate a ship without a proper map! 🗺️ So much for their credibility when they can't even get this fundamental piece of information right. It makes you wonder what else they might be getting wrong in their so - called “analysis.”

## ✅ Understanding the Big Picture: Market Corrections Affect Everyone
Now, let's talk about the real deal. What these naysayers are conveniently ignoring is that the ENTIRE crypto market has been on a downward trend. It's not just Pi Network facing this. This is what we call a MARKET CORRECTION, and it's hitting every major cryptocurrency out there. 📉

Take a look at some of the big names in the crypto space:
- ADA: Its All - Time High was $3.10, and today it's trading at $0.65. That's a significant drop, but it's part of the broader market movement.
- BNB: It reached an ATH of $793, and now it's at $592. Clearly, it's not immune to the market correction either.
- SOL: With an ATH of $295, it's now down to $1,791. Just like the others, SOL is also feeling the heat of the market.
- ETH: Once at an ATH of $4,878, Ethereum is currently trading at $1,791. It's a similar story across the board.

Pi Network is definitely not alone in this. The market is going through a rough patch, and all cryptocurrencies are being affected. It's like a big storm hitting a fleet of ships. Some ships might be more affected than others, but no one is left unscathed. 🌪️

## 💪 Pioneers Keep Building: Don't Be Swayed by Haters
Let the haters talk all they want. They mock what they don't understand and fear what they can't control. But true Pioneers in the Pi Network community know better. They keep their heads down and keep building. 💪

The key is to stay focused, stay sharp, and most importantly, do your homework. Before you go parroting these half - baked hot takes that you hear from some so - called “experts,” take the time to do your own research. Go on Google, explore different sources, and form your own opinions. 🔍

In the world of cryptocurrency, things are constantly changing. A market correction is just a part of the journey. Pi Network, like all the other cryptocurrencies, will have its ups and downs. But for those who believe in its potential and are willing to put in the work, there's still hope. So, let's not be swayed by the negative noise and keep moving forward. 🚀

Binance to potentially delist multiple crypto assets: Details

According to a recentX post by Wu Blockchain, Binancehas expanded its monitoring tags to include additional crypto assets, which means "delisting risks."As stated on the exchange's official blog post, on April 3, 2025, it will extend the Monitoring Tag to include more tokens and remove the Seed Tag for selected tokens. Tokens to be added to the Monitoring Tag list are Ardor (ARDR), Biswap (BSW), Flamingo (FLM), LTO Network (LTO), NKN (NKN), PlayDapp (PDA), Perpetual Protocol (PERP), Viberate (VIB), Voxies (VOXEL) and Wing Finance (WING). Tokens under the Monitoring Tag are at risk of being delisted from the platform if they fail to meet Binance's listing criteria. Meanwhile, other services related to the aforementioned tokens will not be affected on Binance. Additionally, three tokens will be removed from the Seed Tag list: Jupiter (JUP), Starknet (STRK) and Toncoin.

Fidelity's Solana ETF filing acknowledged by SEC

As became knownyesterday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)has officially acknowledged Fidelity's Solana exchange-traded fund (ETF) filing. Even though the news did not have an immediate impact on SOL's price, at press time, the asset is trading up 5.04% over the past 24 hours, at $118.71, according to CoinMarketCap data. As previously reported by U.Today, Fidelity, which manages approximately $4.9 trillion worth of assets, entered the Solana ETF race in late March. In February, the SEC also acknowledged several Solana ETF filings from companies like Grayscale, 21Shares and Canary Capital. Per Polymarket bettors, there is an 83% chance that a Solana ETF will be approved this year.

The question to ask: Is Binance Exchange in Business? With all due respect, I think they are. At the moment, #Binance is the largest #Cryoto Exchange by volume of trading.

So, why has Binance not listed #Pi up till now, since the network launched open on February 20 , 2025?

To be fair to Binance, it's not always the case that they come out to list a coin immediately such coins launch open mainnet. I think it has to do with meeting certain requirements before such coins are listed.

If the same Binance provisions are applicable to Pi Network, then why did Binance decide to use another method of voting by users on the Binance platform to decide Pi's fate instead of following their own prerequisites? Is it that Binance has a hidden agenda, probably thinking that Binance users will vote against the listing of Pi, then using this as an excuse to not list the coin? Unfortunately, the world has seen the result, revealed by Binance themselves which gave 87.1 percent yes, and 12.9 percent no. Since revealing the result of the voting, Binance authorities have remained silent about the possible listing. Nothing stops Binance from issuing a statement that certain matters are still being worked upon on Pi listing.

I have said it before now. Binance should avoid being seen as a hater of Pi Network. Like I have written in the past, I said Binance once congratulated Pi Network on the PiDay1 event in 2003.

There may be some hanging issues to be sorted out between Binance and Pi Network, one of which is the issue of KYB introduced by Pi Network. Meaning that any Exchange that intends to list Pi must be KYB-approved. KYB means Know Your Business. Maybe some individuals within Binance set up see this proviso as going too far. No. If there are requirements to be met by both sides, let them strife to meet those requirements for the sake of their businesses.

Some analysts have raised questions why Binance raced to list a meme coin like #Trump without a recourse to certain prerequisites but leaving out an apparently credible coin like Pi unlisted. Not to worry, a coin like Trump's may have enjoyed political consideration.

However, I am thinking of the business angle . From all raminifications, Pi deserves to be listed. The fact that Pi has been ranked as 11th in the global crypto ranking has further justified a listing on Binance platform.

In the ever-evolving crypto space, tokenomics plays a crucial role in shaping a project's success. But what if we rethought the traditional token unlock model? What if there was a way to align incentives, prevent early dumps, and ensure long-term sustainability?
The Crazy Token Issuance Model 🤯
Imagine a token with the following unique unlock mechanism:
📌 Initial Sale:
10% of tokens are unlocked and sold at the Token Generation Event (TGE).The funds raised support product development, marketing, salaries, and more.
📌 Future Unlock Conditions (ALL must be met):

1️⃣ Time-Locked: Each unlock happens at least six months after the previous one.
2️⃣ Price-Based: The token price must have remained above 2x of the last unlock price for 30+ consecutive days before the next unlock.
3️⃣ Limited Unlock: A maximum of 5% of tokens can be released each time.
How It Works – A Simple Breakdown 📊

👉 If the price doesn't double again, no unlock happens! Simple yet powerful.
Why This Model? 🤔
This structure changes the game in multiple ways:
✅ Prevents Market Flooding – No excessive token release when prices are low.
✅ Encourages Long-Term Vision – Founders must build value to unlock tokens.
✅ Reduces Dumping Risks – Investors get confidence in a controlled release.
✅ Balances Flexibility & Discipline – Founders can delay or reduce unlocks but can’t increase or accelerate them.
The Reality Check ⚖️
Of course, no token model is foolproof. Potential risks include:
⚠️ Projects rug-pulling after the first 10%.
⚠️ Tokens still being manipulated.
⚠️ Founders failing despite best intentions.
At the end of the day, fundamentals always matter:
💡 A strong product
💡 A committed community
💡 A sustainable revenue model
💡 A trustworthy & capable team
Final Thoughts 💭
This isn't a magic fix for crypto projects, but it offers a fresh perspective on sustainable token issuance. Will we see projects adopting this model? Possibly. Will it work? Time will tell. But one thing is clear – innovation in tokenomics is far from over.
So, are you a long-term builder ready to embrace this model? If so, you can apply.
