- Daily token unlocking increases selling pressure on Pi.
- Internal Value ($314K) offers ecosystem stability vs. market volatility.
- Analysts predict potential convergence of internal and external values in 18 months.
Pi Network’s token is currently trading at $0.2156, down 4.8% over the past 24 hours, reflecting continued pressure in the crypto market. Analysts warn that reclaiming its all-time high may be increasingly difficult due to both structural and external market factors.
Why Pi’s Price Faces Headwinds
A key factor weighing on Pi is the daily unlocking of previously restricted tokens. As more pioneers gain access to these balances, selling pressure rises, making upward price movement harder.
Moreover, Pi’s long-term value depends heavily on real-world adoption and utility. Without clear mechanisms for incentivizing sustained holding, demand may struggle to keep pace with the growing circulating supply. This combination of increased liquidity and limited practical use presents a major challenge for investors hoping for a return to prior highs.
Understanding Pi’s Dual Value System
Pi pioneers now have a tool to track the network’s performance more transparently. Professor Kamel Kadah introduced a live dashboard highlighting Pi’s Dual Value System, which separates Internal Value from External Value.
Internal Value, currently at $314,150, is ecosystem-driven and remarkably stable at 99.6%. It reflects activity across 127 Pi apps, with daily internal trading volume of $562.8 million and 1.8 million active transactions. This value relies on Pioneer consensus rather than external speculation, providing a reliable foundation for everyday use, from buying to gifting Pi.
In contrast, External Value reacts to broader market trends. Currently $40.59, it fluctuates with supply, demand, and global economic factors. Pi is listed on eight exchanges with a 24-hour trading volume of $40.6 million and 12.4% volatility. The dual system offers both internal stability and external market flexibility.

Growth and Future Outlook
Pi Network continues to expand, now hosting 142 active apps and 2.4 million daily transactions. About 76% of pioneers have completed KYC, bringing the total to nearly 60 million users. Analysts suggest that if trends continue, Pi’s internal and external values—currently separated by roughly $314,087—could converge within 18 months, potentially bridging the gap between ecosystem stability and market perception.
Pi Network shows a unique approach to crypto valuation through its Dual Value System. While price challenges remain, strong internal adoption and growing ecosystem activity suggest a foundation for long-term stability.
