The post Is Pi Network Price Heading For a Major Crash? 600M+ Tokens Unlocking by Year-End appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
For months, token unlock speculations have been in the air. The community is anxiously waiting for this event and its impact on the coin. Since Pi Network is about to witness a highly volatile period as hundreds of millions of Pi tokens are set to unlock over the coming months.
According to Pinetworkmember, around 139 million Pi will enter circulation in August, followed by 116M in September, 93M in October, 102M in November, and a whopping 170M in December. Additionally, daily migrations are pumping 3 to 5 million Pi tokens into the market, significantly increasing the circulating supply.
This surge in supply is raising red flags across the community. With so many tokens entering the ecosystem, there’s rising concern about whether there’s enough demand, liquidity, or strong buyers to absorb the pressure. Without these, the Pi price could face serious downward pressure.
Meanwhile, a single-day unlock of 337 million Pi on July 15 caused a sharp 25% price decline, showcasing how supply surges have immediate impacts.
Not Enough Demand or Liquidity?
Despite the introduction of Pi App Studio, an initiative designed to help non-technical users build apps on the Pi Network, the project appears to be struggling to spark external interest. Many analysts and users are concerned that Pi’s ecosystem isn’t ready for this kind of pressure.
The daily increase in tokens needs strong demand, real use cases, and deep liquidity to maintain price stability. Without these, the token’s value could keep falling, leaving early users frustrated.
While Pi has launched the App Studio to help non-developers create apps, critics say the project remains too closed off. It has yet to open up to other crypto ecosystems, form external partnerships, or get listed on major exchanges.
Some say the Pi Core Team’s reluctance to fully decentralize the network is holding back growth.

However, raising further doubts about token circulations, one crypto user claimed that by 2027, over 400 million more Pi tokens are expected to enter circulation. Responding to this, pinetworkmember clarified that the total supply will reach several billion, since all migrated tokens are considered circulating, even if locked by users.
He noted that the core team (CT) got lucky because many early Pioneers unknowingly locked their tokens, which helped slow down immediate supply pressure. But with billions set to circulate eventually, concerns are growing about liquidity, demand, and the true value of $PI going forward.
What’s Next for Pi Network?
For Pi Network to stabilize and survive this turbulent phase, it will need more than just app development. The project must embrace decentralization, seek external partnerships, and work toward listing Pi on credible exchanges.
Without these steps, the massive upcoming unlocks could flood the market, putting Pi’s long-term sustainability at risk. In the current state, Pioneers may be left holding tokens with little liquidity and declining perceived value, unless urgent changes are made to attract real-world demand and utility.

FAQs
How many Pi tokens will be in circulation by 2027?
According to community sources, over 400 million additional tokens may be unlocked by 2027. However, the total supply could reach several billion, as all migrated tokens—locked or not—are considered part of the circulating supply.
Will Pi Network be listed on major exchanges soon?
As of now, Pi Network is not listed on major crypto exchanges. Without listings, the project faces liquidity challenges that could worsen during large token unlock events.
What is the upcoming Pi Network token unlock schedule?
Between August and December, Pi Network will unlock hundreds of millions of tokens:
August: 139M
September: 116M
October: 93M
November: 102M
December: 170M
Additionally, 3–5 million tokens are entering circulation daily through migrations.
What is the Pi App Studio?
Pi App Studio is a platform that allows users without coding skills to build apps on the Pi Network. It’s aimed at boosting ecosystem activity, though adoption remains limited so far.
