Where can I sell PI coin?

As of August 20, 2025, according to the latest market data from Gate, the price of Pi coin (PI) is hovering around $0.35, testing the critical support level of $0.35. This project, once hailed as the "people's crypto asset," currently has a market capitalization of approximately $2.7 billion, ranking 46th globally, having fallen over 87% from its historical high of $3 set in February.

##Market Status: Fluctuating Prices and Key Levels

The performance of Pi coin has shown slight weakness recently. In the past 24 hours, the price has decreased by 0.2%, while the weekly decline has expanded to 14.20%, significantly underperforming the overall Crypto Assets market during the same period (which fell by 0.10%) and the Layer 1 sector (which increased by 1.50%).

The price is fluctuating within a narrow range of $0.34 to $0.35, with a 24-hour trading volume shrinking by 46% to approximately $35.19 million, reflecting a tightening of market liquidity and an intensification of the bull-bear struggle.

On the technical front, the range between $0.34 and $0.35 has formed a short-term key support zone. If it breaks below, the price may test the June low of $0.335; recent resistance above is located at $0.44, which has been tested unsuccessfully four times in the past three months.

Platform Selection: Advantages of Gate

Currently, the PI coin has not yet been listed on top exchanges like Binance and Coinbase, but trading has opened on some platforms, among which Gate is one of the first exchanges to launch spot trading of PI coin, and is currently the most active trading platform for PI coin, accounting for about 60% of the total trading volume.

Gate supports the PI/USDT trading pair and offers PI perpetual contract trading with a maximum leverage of 25 times. Its advantages lie in relatively ample liquidity and a wide variety of trading products.

The platform has a high security rating, with over 35 million registered users, supporting more than 3,800 trading pairs, and excellent user reviews, all of which provide reliable endorsement for it.

Operation Guide: Complete the Sale of PI Coin in Four Steps

The process of selling PI coin on Gate can be simplified into four core steps.

Recharge PI coin to Gate

Log in to your Gate account, click on the "My Assets" menu in the navigation bar, then click the "Deposit" button and select "Pi Coin (PI)". The system will generate a unique deposit address—please copy this address carefully.

Open your Pi wallet (make sure you have completed the KYC and mainnet migration of the Pi Network), paste the deposit address copied from Gate, and send your PI coin. Note: Transfers are not always instant, and there may be delays, especially during busy network times.

Place sell order ###

After the recharge is successful, your PI coin will appear in the spot account. Click on the "Trading" menu in the navigation bar and select the "PI/USDT" trading pair.

According to the real-time market, you can choose:

• Market Order: Sell immediately at the current market price, suitable for users who wish to execute trades quickly.
• Limit order: Set a target selling price you desire, and wait for the market to fluctuate to that price for automatic matching, which helps control the transaction price.

Enter the quantity you wish to sell and confirm the order.

fund withdrawal

After the sale is completed, the funds (usually USDT) will be deposited into your Gate spot account. You can either keep it on the platform to trade other assets or withdraw it.

Click on the "Withdraw" tab in the "My Assets" menu, select USDT (or the coin you wish to withdraw), enter the withdrawal address, amount, and network fee, and you can initiate the withdrawal.

Market Trends: Whales, Unlocking, and Meme Effect

On-chain monitoring shows that since April, an anonymous whale address has been continuously accumulating PI, with a total of 351 million coins (worth approximately 125 million USD), rising to the sixth largest holding address in the entire network. During the same period, exchange reserves decreased by 5%, and short-term selling pressure has somewhat eased.

However, the market is also facing unlocking pressure, with 276 million PI being released this month, accounting for 3.5% of the circulating supply, which is equivalent to 2.4 times the average daily trading volume. Historical similar unlocking events have triggered a 34% drop.

A noteworthy phenomenon is that the recent PI price shows a strong correlation with Meme coins, with its correlation coefficients with DOGE, SHIB, and BONK soaring to 0.76, 0.84, and 0.89 respectively. This indicates that the market to some extent classifies PI as a high-risk speculative asset, making its price more susceptible to being driven by sentiment, leading to "price surges and crashes."

Future Outlook and Investment Strategy

Institutional predictions for the future price of PI show extreme divergence:

• Conservative scenario: 0.4 - 1.5 USD (User selling pressure continues + Ecosystem applications are scarce)
• Neutral scenario: approximately $3.78 (Binance/Coinbase listing + user-activated trading demand)
• Optimistic scenario: above $620 (requires achieving Visa level 65,000 TPS + millions of merchants payment implementation) — extremely low probability

For short-term traders, it is recommended to use $0.38 as the bullish-bearish dividing line. A breakthrough at $0.44 may allow for light long positions, while a drop below $0.375 should consider stop-loss and wait-and-see, closely monitoring the selling pressure release after the token unlock at the end of August.

For long-term holders, it may be worth considering a dollar-cost averaging strategy and keeping the PI position within 5% of total assets. The holding period may need to be 3 to 5 years, and its value realization largely depends on the performance optimization of the Pi Network mainnet, TPS improvement, and substantial progress in the large-scale adoption by physical merchants.

##Future Outlook

The core contradiction of the current valuation of PI coin lies in the imbalance between the scale of 60 million users and the potential supply of 100 billion.

The ability to make a comeback depends on three key breakthrough points: the listing on top exchanges brings liquidity injection, the mainnet performance optimization supports high-concurrency scenarios, and the large-scale adoption by physical merchants forms a value closed loop.

Selling PI coin on platforms like Gate has become highly standardized in terms of technical operations, but the real decision lies in timing.
