Pi Coin Drops 25% In A Day, Will Kyc Deadline Shake Prices?
Pi Coin has taken a big hit, crashing 25% in just a day. It dropped to $2.05 before recovering slightly to $2.41, but it’s still down 12% overall. The market cap is valued at $14.05 billion and the 24-hour trading volume stands at $1.64 billion, dropping almost 55%. This sudden fall comes after its recent Mainnet launch, which had initially sent prices soaring.
Now, with today being the last chance for users to finish their KYC (Know Your Customer) verification, there’s a lot of uncertainty in the market.
KYC is an important step for Pi holders since it lets them confirm their identity and transfer their coins to the main network. If too many people fail to complete this step, it could affect how much Pi is actually in circulation, which could, in turn, mess with the price. So, all eyes are on the deadline today, and people are wondering how it will impact the market.
At the same time, the whole crypto market is under pressure. Bitcoin dropped below $80,000, partly because of concerns about upcoming U.S. tariff plans, stricter crypto regulations, and the recent $1.5 billion Ethereum hack. Ethereum itself fell 7%, and other big names like XRP, BNB, and Solana took big hits too.
Despite the recent dip, Pi Coin is still holding up better than its lowest point of $0.6152. Pi Coin has taken a 20% hit from its peak of $2.98, proving once again how unpredictable the market can be. When the Mainnet launched on February 20, prices skyrocketed 30% in just an hour, only to crash overnight.
Some believe it could still reach $100 someday, but that would only happen if adoption grows, trading activity increases, and major exchanges start listing it.
With the KYC deadline ending today and so much uncertainty in the air, the big question remains: Will Pi Coin bounce back, or is more trouble on the way?
