Pi Network’s cryptocurrency PI is gaining attention as rumors circulate about a potential listing on HTX exchange. The digital asset, which already trades on OKX and Bitget, could see increased retail interest and price movement if it joins HTX’s offerings.
Currently trading at $0.61, PI has experienced a 3.42% price drop over the past 24 hours. However, trading volumes have increased by 27% to $68 million, according to CoinMarketCap data.
The HTX listing speculation began after the exchange made several posts on X featuring the Pi Network logo in various contexts. These posts have fueled community speculation about an upcoming debut on the platform.

HTX represents a major opportunity for PI as one of the largest exchanges with daily trading volumes averaging around $1.7 billion.
Exchange Listing Impact
Exchange listings often drive price increases for newer tokens like PI. Traders are positioning themselves for potential upward movement following an HTX listing announcement.
Success on HTX could lead to listings on other major platforms like Binance and Coinbase, further expanding PI’s reach and liquidity.
With a circulating supply of approximately 7 billion tokens, a price of $5 would give Pi Network a market capitalization of $35 billion. A previous analysis suggested PI could reach this price point by February 2027 if it gains 10% monthly.
Cryptocurrency analyst Dr Altcoin has weighed in on PI’s prospects. Beyond exchange listings, he points to two additional catalysts: the 2025 Consensus event and the conclusion of ongoing Pi Network token unlocks in mid-May.

Price Prediction Timeline
Dr Altcoin has made more specific predictions about when PI’s price movement might begin. Unlike earlier forecasts pointing to late August, he believes the rally will start during the Consensus Summit scheduled for May 14-16, 2025.
The Pi Network founder is slated to deliver a keynote address at this high-profile industry event, which could drive interest and price action.
The August prediction had been based on the completion of a PI unlocking event that will release 212 million tokens. However, Dr Altcoin sees the Consensus Summit as a more immediate catalyst.
Several factors could affect this timeline. The Pi Core Team is working to approve KYB (Know Your Business) applications before Consensus 2025, and the successful launch of decentralized applications on the network would support price growth.
Technical Analysis
Technical indicators show PI under bearish pressure with a declining Relative Strength Index (RSI) that has fallen to 30, entering oversold territory.
Historically, an oversold RSI has preceded gains for PI as traders buy during price dips. A move above the $0.63 resistance level could confirm an upward trend and potentially fuel a 16% rally to $0.73.
The Pi Core Team has been purchasing PI on centralized exchanges, acquiring over 48 million coins to help stabilize prices.
Dr Altcoin cites several positive factors for PI, including accessibility, sustainability, security features, low gas fees, and regulatory compliance.
As the Consensus Summit approaches, PI has maintained its position around the $0.60 mark for over a week, with investors watching for signals of the predicted rally.
