Sunshine after heavy rain? Pi’s infamous token unlock schedule is bound to cool off in August.
Some large-scale crypto unlocks have previously caught Pi Coin (PI) investors off guard. Indeed, the current average Pi unlocks are summing up to more than $2.64 million a day, equivalent to ≈5.8 million Pi tokens.
Last month, Pi Coin saw humongous token unlocks on June 28 & 29, dropping over 10 million tokens into circulation on both days. While that stands for the highest inflation rate in a couple of months, the last two days of July have imposed less inflation pressure, pouring in 7.3 million tokens on the 30 & 31 of July, 2025.

As August is kicking in, Pi Coin holders, popularly referred to as Pioneers, are in for a treat. The slowed down pace in the crypto token unlock schedule presents a relief, with most scheduled unlocks in August dishing out less than 5 million Pi tokens a day, according to PiScan explorer.
So far, the heaviest unlock was conducted on June 28, 2025, when 10,757,666 Pi coins entered the global crypto markets at once. Surprisingly, that didn’t have an immediate impact on Pi’s price, as the mobile mining crypto token continued to trade near the major demand territory of $0.60 for the most part of the month.
Having backtracked over 84% from the $2.99 all-time peak, Pi’s price has to rely on the demand zone established between $0.45 to $0.60, but one thing is expected to boost the altcoin’s price back above $1. Indeed, the Pioneer community had been buzzing about a potential Binance listing, as affiliated crypto wallets had been gathering Pi Coin (PI) in bulk.

Pi Coin unlocks release new tokens into circulation from its 100B supply. About 600M tokens are unlocking from August to December 2025, growing the ~7.7B circulating supply.
Despite added supply, Pi’s team stabilizes prices by absorbing tokens. Moreover, rising adoption (e.g., Pi2Day 2025) and new utility may drive demand to counter sell-offs.
Pi’s ecosystem, with 21K+ apps and 37.7M tokens staked, shows strong activity. Growing developer engagement (7,600+ chatbots) could lift demand and support prices.
Unlocks may cause price swings, with Pi down 80% from its $2.98 peak (Feb 2025). Without major exchange listings or mainnet clarity, dips are possible—invest cautiously.
