Pi Network's Price Surges 30% Weekly: Will the Latest v20.2 Update Propel PI to $0.30?
Pi Network's PI has reached a three-month price high, raising questions about future movements following significant trading activity.
The past several days have seen significant upward movement for Pi Network’s PI, which has recently reached a three-month high.
Although some analysts suggest that further gains may be possible soon, specific indicators point to a potential correction on the horizon.
Back to Red Territory?
Currently, PI has emerged as the top-performing cryptocurrency among the top 100, boasting a rise of 30% within the past week. The asset momentarily broke the $0.23 mark — a milestone not achieved since December of last year — now trading around $0.21 according to CoinGecko.
This price rally follows the most recent updates from the Core Team, during which the v19.9 migration was completed successfully. The next version, v20.2, is slated for release around March 12, two days before Pi Day in 2026. This increase in valuation might also correlate with a newly disclosed case study revealing that Pi Nodes could potentially facilitate distributed AI computing and model training.
However, two indicators suggest that this price increase may soon yield to a correction. Recent data indicates that over 6.2 million PI tokens were transferred to exchanges within the last 24 hours, bringing the total to nearly 450 million. Most of these tokens are held on Gate.io, making up 53% of the total, while Bitget is in second place with approximately 148.8 million. While this data does not inherently guarantee a short-term price drop, it is often viewed as a precursor to a sell-off.
PI’s Relative Strength Index (RSI)
Next in line is PI’s Relative Strength Index (RSI), which is designed to assess recent price shifts and assist traders in determining if an asset is nearing a pivotal point. The RSI ranges between 0 and 100, with values exceeding 70 signaling that an asset is likely in overbought territory and may be due for a correction. At the moment, this index measures roughly 71.
More Gains Ahead?
In contrast to the apprehension surrounding potential corrections, some users remain optimistic that PI may be on the cusp of another price increase in the near future. Notable analysts, such as Vuori Trading, have predicted an elevation as high as $0.64, while ALTS GEMS Alert has forecasted a rise to $0.30.
The upcoming protocol update later this week may offer PI another advantage, but there always lies the classic risk of a ‘sell-the-news’ effect that investors should remain aware of.
