Pi Network Plunges 19%—Is the Long-Awaited Mainnet Launch Finally Around the Corner?

Jakarta, Pintu News – Some time ago, the price of Pi Coin jumped sharply today in line with the overall crypto market recovery, driven by positive news related to the US-China trade war.

However, there is something else at play. Pi Network’s tokens are often talked about due to their bullish price performance and expectations of listing on leading crypto exchanges.

Then, how will the Pi Network price move today?

Pi Network Price Drops 19.2% in 24 Hours

On May 13, 2025, the price of Pi Network (PI) was recorded at $1.03, a decrease of 19.2% in the last 24 hours. If converted to the current rupiah ($1 = IDR 16,520), then 1 Pi Network is IDR 17,016.

Nevertheless, Pi’s 24-hour trading volume was quite high, reaching over $2 billion ($2,044,817,219). This shows that despite the price decline, interest in the token is still very high, with a lot of buying and selling activity taking place in the market.

In terms of market capitalization, Pi Network ranks #26 with a market cap of $7,247,031,176 and a fully diluted valuation of over $11 billion.

FOMO Drives Pi Network Price Increase

Despite today’s significant drop, a few days ago, amid a broad market recovery due to trade talks between the US and China, digital assets experienced a surge in value, and Pi Network’s price increase was part of that trend.

Experts believe that this spike is driven by FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), as investors’ positive sentiment increases ahead of upcoming updates in the Pi ecosystem.

In a post on May 8, Pi Network announced that there would be an ecosystem-related announcement on May 14.

While there is no official information on what will be announced, investors expect it could be the long-awaited listing on Binance, or something equally positive.

As a result, many observers have started buying Pi Coin in the hope that there will be a price increase rally.

Is the Pi Network Mainnet Launch Coming Soon?

While there is no certainty about Pi Network’s announcement on May 14, investors are hoping there will be news of a listing on Binance or the launch of the mainnet.

Adding to the anticipation, Pailot-an app that bridges logistics technology and Web3-revealed that they are preparing the Pailot app for review by Pi’s core team before the upcoming ecosystem listing.

If this bullish momentum continues, Pi prices could potentially reach $1.7 amidst the FOMO euphoria ahead of the May 14 announcement.
