Our model projects Pi Network at $0.0162 in 2030 and $0.0288 by 2036 — -67.0% against the last daily close of $0.0871, in the base case. The 2030 range runs from $0.00048936 in the bear case to $0.2627 in the bull case.

Why below today's price? Most altcoins lose ground to Bitcoin over a full cycle — between the 2021 and 2025 peaks, only 3.5% of those we measured gained on it — and the model starts Pi Network from that base rate. Why Most Altcoins Lose to Bitcoin, Cycle After Cycle

Year-end central forecast and the band around it. Select a year for the model's reasoning. In 2026, a quarter that has already begun and has no forecast of its own shows the observed closing price instead: “close” once the quarter is over, “latest close” while it is still under way.

Pi Network: the case for and against

What our documented research establishes about the project itself, with its sources. It is an assessment of the project, not the reason behind the number: the price model reads price series only.

Pi Network (PI) receives a trust score of 280. Although the project was founded by Stanford alumni and reached its Open Mainnet phase in early 2025 with millions of registered users, severe structural risks persist. The blockchain remains centralized around core team validators, lacks independent third-party security audits from tier-1 firms like CertiK, and uses a referral-focused distribution model that closely resembles MLM structures. Major exchanges including Binance and Coinbase have declined to list the token over transparency and compliance issues, and the ecosystem is plagued by frequent user reports of wallet exploits, phishing, and KYC migration bottlenecks.

Strengths
Founded by publicly known Stanford academics Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis and Dr. Chengdiao Fan. www.cryptopotato.com ↗
Transitioned to Open Mainnet in February 2025, enabling external network and wallet connectivity. minepi.com ↗
Risks
Lacks independent third-party smart contract and protocol security audits from major firms like CertiK. skynet.certik.com ↗
Mainnet consensus and node validators remain centralized under the direct control of the Pi Core Team. www.okx.com ↗
Top Tier-1 crypto exchanges like Binance and Coinbase have abstained from listing Pi Coin due to transparency and risk concerns. www.cointribune.com ↗
The referral-driven mobile mining model relies on social recruitment structures that draw criticism for MLM-like dynamics. www.coinbureau.com ↗
Red flags
Absence of independent, published third-party security audits
Centralized validator control managed almost entirely by the founding team
Multilevel marketing (MLM) style gamified recruitment and mining model
Widespread user reports of wallet security breaches, unauthorized transfers, and migration delays

Methodology
What the model reads

Bitcoin's trajectory multiplied by today's PI(PINETWORK)/BTC ratio and a drift measured across the whole altcoin universe. Nothing is fitted to PI(PINETWORK) alone — every per-coin parameter that was tested lost to the shared drift.

Model confidence
Model confidence for PI(PINETWORK) in 2030

The band is built to hold the price 82% of the time. The published confidence, 2.8/10, sits lower: it starts from what our documented research establishes about the project itself, and nothing raises it back.

Only the nearest horizons rest on a backtest. Later years carry a declared level — the band’s design level, capped by our research score — that no backtest can confirm yet; where one found the band holding the price less often, we publish that lower figure.
