After a dull moment, Pi’s whales are getting busy again: is the all-time low a favorable entry point?
The crypto currency whales have been floating on the sidelines for the most part of Pi Coin’s price movement over the past few months. Amidst the downward spiral, Pi Network’s (PI) native token trashed quite a few major support territories, including $0.60, $0.40 & most recently, $0.30.
This time, a hefty crypto token unlock has done its black magic on Pi’s price, which just hit an all-time anti-record of $0.2552 on September 22, 2025. Interestingly, Pi Network’s (PI) core team just secured a new partnership with Sign to bolster adoption, but the big news was overshadowed.
So far, this week has been harsh on Pi, as the altcoin dropped 20% of its price, while the upcoming token unlock schedule promises another 137,272,722.32 Pi Coins to be poured into the markets over the next 30 days. That represents $38.88 million at the current market values, but a major listing could soak up any sell pressure.
Particularly, traders shall watch out for the two heaviest unlocks on October 1 & 4, 2025, cumulatively accounting for 25 million of Pi Coins awaiting release. Because of this, the breakout at $0.29 failed, as noted by crypto analyst Matthias. If the bearish divergence doesn’t clear and the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) trend-lines flatten out, $0.10 is on the cards.
The lack of major has played a key part in the 90.5% drawdown since the all-time peak of $2.99 hit one week into the mainnet’s launch, but large investors, popularly referred to as whales, have shown signs of renewed interest in the mobile mining token. Indeed, whales are getting busy accumulating positions at $0.28, confirmed by the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) at 0.12.
However, that’s on the 1-hour charts, while the long-term Pi Coin’s whale sentiment remains at neutral territory. To reclaim the $1 price goal, the freshman altcoin would have to recoup mid May market capitalization, hypothetically adding $8 billion from the current point. That’s most likely if Binance, KuCoin or HTX moves to list the token after a series of social media hints.

Pi fell to ~$0.25 on September 22, 2025, due to heavy selling from token unlocks (e.g., Fast-Track KYC) and weak demand despite some whale buying.
A major whale holds 381M PI tokens (~$112M), but it’s not nowhere near enough to offset selling pressure from unlocks, causing the price to tank.
Oversold RSI (29), a hammer candlestick at $0.1846, and upcoming major listings and crypto events like TOKEN2049 could signal a bullish reversal.
Bearish case: $0.20 or $0.18 if $0.34 support fails. Bullish case: $0.47-$0.64, possibly $1 with whale buys and mainnet progress.
Upside: Whale buys, listings, ecosystem updates. Downside: More unlocks, market dips, or losing $0.30 support.
