With 60 Million Users, Pi Network Seeks Visionary Allies as It Prepares for a Major Announcement at Consensus 2025

Pi Network, the crypto project boasting 60 million users, seeks visionary allies as it prepares for a major announcement at Consensus 2025, one of blockchain’s biggest stages.

However, the PI community’s tensions simmer amid price drops and access limitations.

Pi Network Community Calls For Visionary Partnerships

The Pi Core Team hinted at a significant ecosystem reveal on Wednesday, May 14.

“A Pi ecosystem announcement will be released on May 14,” the team shared on X (Twitter) on May 8.

This long-awaited unveiling will illuminate Pi Network’s next moves ahead of its anticipated Open Network launch. The launch is a pivotal milestone for a community of over 60 million users.

As Consensus 2025 kicks off in Toronto on May 14, Pioneers call on global businesses and developers to partner with Pi Networks’ growing Web3 ecosystem.

“….Pi Network won’t be standing on the sidelines. It will be in the building, shaking hands with tech titans, sparking high-level collaborations, and showcasing its decentralized economy in front of the world’s top minds,” Mr. Spok, a Pi community member, wrote.

The timing of Consensus 2025 aligns with Pi Network’s tease of a major ecosystem announcement on Wednesday. Community members hope the big reveal is a Binance listing, which has remained elusive for months.

“…rumors are swirling about a Binance listing and Pi joining the Binance ecosystem,” Pi Next Gen, the community’s development aggregator, shared in a post.

Others also say it’s a DeFi integration, but a Binance listing would be even more welcomed.

Meanwhile, Pi Network may leverage the global stage of this high-profile event to present itself as more than just a grassroots crypto project.

With zero-fee transactions, mobile-first architecture, and a scaling user base, it is fertile ground for forward-thinking enterprises seeking Web3 integration and first-mover advantage.

Major industry players expected at the event include Google Cloud, Visa, J.P. Morgan, Ethereum Foundation, Coinbase, and OpenAI. Influential speakers such as Michael Saylor, Vitalik Buterin, and Pi Network’s Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis will also attend.

However, even as Pi aims for a breakout moment on the global stage, internal friction is rising.

According to BeInCrypto data, the price of PI Coin, which is still unofficially traded on some platforms, dropped nearly 15% in the past 24 hours.

Users Frustrated Over Limited Access To Pi Coin Tokens

Moreover, amid the fanfare surrounding potential partnerships and the ecosystem announcement, many users remain frustrated that they still cannot fully access or transfer their PI tokens. This key step hinges on the Open Network rollout.

“If you don’t allow users to launch, then this is simply a scam project. It’s unfair to Chinese users. For six years, you’ve been deceiving the ecosystem’s development,
