Now, though, PI is dumping as the process begins.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The highly volatile token as of late has dropped once again in the past 24 hours, losing over 10% of value in a nosedive to a two-week low of under $0.18.<\/p>\n<p>The asset has plunged by roughly 40% since the highly anticipated Pi Day on Saturday, even as the team behind the project announced new updates and promises.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"pi-dumps-again\">Pi Dumps Again<\/h2>\n<p>After celebrating its first anniversary as a free-for-trading token in late February, PI rebounded from its all-time low of $0.1312 and started March on the right foot as the community was preparing for the aforementioned Pi Day (March 14) and enjoyed several updates. The asset went on the offensive in the days leading to March 14, especially since the veteran US crypto exchange Kraken <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-token-listed-on-major-exchange-ahead-of-pi-day-details\/\">announced<\/a> it would list it for trading starting a day before the Pi Network celebration.<\/p>\n<p>PI exploded by double digits on a few consecutive occasions, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-pi-price-explodes-30-today-heres-why\/\">skyrocketing<\/a> from under $0.175 to a five-month peak of almost $0.30. However, the Kraken listing turned out to be a classic sell-the-news event, as once PI went live for trading on the popular exchange, it nosedived immediately by 30% in just a day.<\/p>\n<p>Coincidentally (or not), this massive price drop was on Pi Day. After <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-token-finally-rebounds-after-pi-networks-latest-major-updates-details\/\">trying to rebound<\/a> yesterday to over $0.20, PI has been rejected once more, and now sits at $0.18 after a 11% daily decline. Its market cap has fallen to $1.750 billion, making it the 50th-largest cryptocurrency by that metric. Just a few days ago, PI had entered the top 40 on CoinGecko.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1431661\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1431661\" style=\"width: 1282px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Screenshot-2026-03-17-101204.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1431661\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pi Network (PI) Price on CoinGecko<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"second-migrations-begin\">Second Migrations Begin<\/h2>\n<p>The Core Team <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-core-team-celebrates-pi-day-2026-heres-what-every-pioneer-needs-to-know\/\">made a big statement<\/a> on March 14, highlighting the project\u2019s progress in the past several years and laying out some of the goals ahead.
