Pi Network Faces Supply Crisis Ahead of 775.8 Million Token Unlock

Pi Network may face a supply crisis due to a large-scale token unlock scheduled for the second half of 2026. According to experts, a significant number of Pi holders who have been locked up for three years are recently releasing their tokens, with approximately 775.8 million Pi expected to be unlocked by December 2026, averaging about 129.3 million per month. If this volume flows into exchanges, it could exert downward pressure on the price of Pi (PI). Experts pointed out that it would be difficult to stabilize the price unless the Pi core team directly addresses issues of supply, demand, and liquidity. Alternatives suggested include burning up to 50% of the remaining supply, listing on major exchanges, and introducing a verifiable buyback and burn mechanism. Furthermore, they warned that if the price of Pi falls below $0.01, maintaining a position in the top 100 by market capitalization could also be jeopardized. Community reactions have been mixed, with some agreeing with the experts' criticisms while others questioned past promotional efforts. As of now, the Pi core team has not publicly responded to these concerns.
