Navigating the choppy waters of crypto: Pi Network's struggles, token unlocks pressuring Zora & Sui, and Remittix's ascent. Get the latest insights!

Cryptocurrencies in Flux: Pi Network's Stumble, Zora & Sui's Token Unlocks, and the Rise of Remittix
The cryptocurrency landscape is ever-evolving, and recent trends highlight both the opportunities and the challenges within this dynamic market. From Pi Network's struggles to Zora and Sui navigating token unlocks, and the rise of Remittix, here’s what you need to know.
Pi Network: Confidence Continues to Fall
The Pi Network, once a darling of the crypto world with its promise of mobile mining, is facing headwinds. The Pi Network Price has struggled, hovering around $0.26. Analysts point to the lack of a functional open mainnet and limited exchange accessibility as major factors. Investor sentiment has weakened, and some analysts suggest a further dip below $0.20 if the open mainnet doesn't arrive by early 2025. It is worth noting Dr. Chengdiao Fan's speech at TOKEN2049 event did little to boost the coin.
Zora and Sui: Navigating Token Unlocks
Both Zora and Sui are experiencing price pressure due to significant token unlocks. Zora's price has been in a downward trend, and the unlock of over $9.54 million worth of tokens (4.68% of the total supply) could exacerbate this. Similarly, Sui has seen its price decline, partly due to the broader market but also because of its inflationary tokenomics. This week, Sui will release tokens worth over $176 million, equivalent to 1.55% of the total supply. These unlocks increase circulating supply, potentially keeping prices under pressure.
Remittix: A Rising Star in PayFi
While Pi Network faces challenges, Remittix (RTX) is gaining momentum. This Ethereum-based PayFi token allows users to send crypto directly to global bank accounts with transparent FX rates. Its presale has raised over $26.7M, indicating strong investor interest. A viral 15% USDT referral program has also boosted RTX's visibility. CertiK has fully verified the team, and RTX ranks as the best pre-launch token on CertiK Skynet, adding to its credibility.
Stellar (XLM) and Algorand (ALGO): Promising Altcoins
Beyond the above, Stellar (XLM) and Algorand (ALGO) are altcoins showing promise. Stellar, focused on low-cost international money transfers, has shown growth momentum, with analysts suggesting growing adoption could lead to a rise in its value. Algorand, a first-level platform designed for low-fee transactions, focuses on micropayments and institutional use, with upgrades planned for 2025–2026. Strategic partnerships and on-chain payment products support Algorand's potential.
Final Thoughts: A Mixed Bag
The crypto market is a mixed bag right now. Some projects, like Pi Network, are struggling to deliver on their promises, while others, like Remittix, are gaining traction with tangible progress. Token unlocks are creating price pressures for Zora and Sui, while Stellar and Algorand show potential in specific niches. As always, do your own research, and remember, in the wild west of crypto, not all that glitters is gold… or Bitcoin!
