Pi Network Update: What to Expect Before the Holidays
The Pi Network is hinting at significant upgrades, with speculations about upcoming developments in the crypto world.
The Pi Network team has recently announced a series of updates, prompting speculation among users regarding potential major announcements approaching the holiday season.
While the native token displays positive trends over the past fortnight, some indicators suggest a possible imminent correction.
Recent Developments
In late November, the Pi Network enhanced its partnership with CiDi Games, a platform creating Pi-integrated games for an extensive user base. This collaboration aspires to expand the real-world applications of the PI token.
Moreover, the investment segment, Pi Network Ventures, has lent support to CiDi Games, significantly boosting the gaming sector through various initiatives including hackathons and app incubation programs. The newly released game, FruityPi, enables users to earn rewards while engaging with the network.
As noted by a user from X, the Core Team might unveil a substantial update before Christmas.
“It may be related to the V23 Protocol Upgrades & the highly anticipated PiDex launch! PI is gearing up for something significant. Stay tuned and prepare accordingly,” the speculation suggested.
Market Trends
The collaboration with CiDi Games positively influenced the PI price, alongside a 3% rise over a two-week period. This performance starkly contrasts with notable declines in leading cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

Currently, PI boasts a market cap slightly below $2 billion, ranking it as the 60th largest digital asset. Its value, although on a slight rise, remains far from the all-time high earlier in 2025.
Price Predictions
With more than 185 million PI tokens set for release in the following month, this could signal a bearish trend, potentially allowing investors to divest assets they have held onto for a while. Notably, December 6 will see the release of 7.2 million tokens.

Furthermore, a significant transfer of nearly 2.5 million tokens from private custody to centralized exchanges was observed in the past 24 hours, often perceived as a pre-sale maneuver. Gate.io currently oversees most of the 428.6 million coins held on exchanges.
In summary, although the Pi Network is on the rise, potential challenges loom on the horizon.
