Kraken Confirms PI Coin Listing, Just Before the Big Pi Day
Source Beincrypto
Kraken confirmed a Pi Network (PI) listing with trading set to begin March 13, 2026, sending PI up nearly 2% on OKX within minutes of the announcement.
The listing arrived just two days before Pi Day on March 14, a date that has historically driven speculative price activity around PI.
Why it matters:
- Exchange supply hitting a record 451 million PI signals rising sell pressure that could cap gains if demand stalls after the listing date.
- The Kraken listing gives PI holders a regulated US exchange venue, broadening accessible liquidity for the first time at this scale.
- PI’s price history shows a 21% spike on March 13, 2025, ahead of Pi Day, the same date trading opens on the Kraken exchange this year.
The details:
- Kraken posted on X March 12: “Trading starts March 13” for PI from Pi Core Team.
- PI/USDT climbed 1.98% on OKX on a 5-minute chart between 07:45 and 10:30 UTC+5:30 on March 12, per TradingView data. However, it remains 5% below its price the day before.
- On-chain tracking recorded PI exchange balances rising to a new high of over 451 million tokens following the announcement.
- The Pi Mainnet is mid-way through a protocol upgrade, with a Step 3 node migration deadline set for March 12, per Pi Core Team.
