Social cryptocurrency project Pi Network’s price approaches all-time lows as more and more coins are unlocked.
CoinMarketCap data shows that Pi Network (PI) is trading at $0.6722 as of press time, very close to its all-time low of $0.6152 reported on Feb. 20. The price action comes as over 126.6 million PI tokens are expected to be unlocked this month, equivalent to just under 1.87% of the coin’s current circulating supply.
Founder of Obchakevich Research, Alex Obchakevich, attributed the price downturn to continued PI unlocks in correspondence with Cointelegraph. He described the event as “inevitable in any case” and said:
“Monthly unlocks exceed demand, which greatly affects the value of the token.“

So far, the network has unlocked 4.9 billion PI, with 1.54 billion more coins being freed in the next 12 months. So far, Pi Network has unlocked an average of 133 million PI per month.
The current downturn follows February's all-time lows following the Pi Network mainnet launch. The project operated with trading restrictions that prevented its listing on any platform until that point and then was listed on Bitget, OKX and MEXC.
The potential is there
Still, Obchakevich also recognized the potential of the Pi Network. He highlighted that the network should now “focus on project development now to increase usage and interest.” Talking about growth potential, he also said:

What is Pi Network?
Pi Network is a mobile-first blockchain project allowing users to earn its native token, Pi coin, through an in-app daily check-in process. The network first launched in 2019 and is developed by a team of Stanford University graduates
Pi Network employs a referral-based structure that sees users invite others to join in exchange for token earnings. In late February, Ben Zhou, the CEO of crypto exchange ByBit, challenged the project’s legitimacy and accused it of being a scam. He wrote at the time:
“Yes, I still think you are a scam, and no, Bybit will not list scam.“
