Pi Network Price Forecast: PI languishes amid declining social buzz

Source Fxstreet
  • Pi Network extends losses below $0.1700 on Thursday, pointing to a fifth consecutive week of declines.
  • Pi Network's social volume and dominance have significantly decreased, indicating reduced retail interest.
  • The technical outlook is bearish, with the path of least resistance targeting the immediate support levels.

Pi Network (PI) trades below $0.1700 at press time on Thursday, largely unaffected by geopolitical factors that have driven whipsaws across major cryptocurrencies. The social volume and dominance of Pi Network have significantly decreased, leading to a gradual decline in the spot market. The ongoing correction in the PI token implies a path of least resistance toward the $0.1556 support level. 

Social interest in Pi Network wanes

Pi Network reacts quickly during times of speculation and heightened social interest, similar to a meme coin, due to a lack of transparency and community-driven behavior. Santiment data shows a sharp decline in Pi Network’s social volume to 8 and dominance to 0.016%, down from 29 and 0.090% on March 20, respectively, suggesting muted community support and activity amid broader market volatility driven by doubts about the US-Iran ceasefire. A consistent decline of stagnation at lower levels could reflect downside pressure weighing down on Pi Network.

Pi Network searches for the next leg down

Pi Network extends its second consecutive day of losses below $0.1700 at press time on Thursday. The PI token holds a bearish near-term bias as the spot price remains beneath the stack of 50-, 100-, and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs).

The 50-day EMA at $0.1821 and the 100-day EMA near $0.1910 both sit overhead as dynamic resistance, reinforcing the broader downward structure defined by the long-term 200-day EMA around $0.2466. Momentum indicators echo a soft tone, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 41 on the daily chart, remaining in a largely declining trend below the midline, which suggests waning buying pressure. Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) line is approaching the signal line, pointing to a possible bullish crossover, while the contracting histogram bars suggest muted selling pressure.

A steady downtrend in the PI token, given the muted social interest, has the nearby support aligning with the February 23 low at $0.1556, where a sustained hold would help stabilize the trend. A decisive drop below this zone would reopen the door to the February 11 low at $0.1310. If this level is breached, PI would further weaken toward lower, uncharted levels.

On the topside, immediate resistance is seen first at the 50-day EMA around $0.1821. Meanwhile, the 100-day EMA at $0.1910 marks a much higher structural barrier that would need to be reclaimed to ease the broader downtrend.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
