The Pi cryptocurrency is facing a significant downturn as recent reports reveal that over 121 million Pi has been dumped into exchanges, prompting concerns about the project's longevity. Community developer Bulbybot points to the lack of transparency from the core team, which has further fueled community frustrations.
Sources confirm that the core team has sent 110,142,051 Ο to centralized exchanges (CEXs). Of this, 63,795,008 Ο was reportedly lost to scams, with 11,219,484 Ο of that actually sold off to these exchanges. All together, that amounts to an alarming 121,361,535 Ο under confirmed sell pressure.
"Thatβs 121 million Pi dumped via team sells and scammer liquidations. Not speculation. Tracked live," Bulbybot stated.
Recent comments highlight the mixed feelings among holders. Some are frustrated:
"Itβs unfair to receive migrations only twice in two years."
"The core team is holding onto Pi without any decentralization."
Others show a resigned determination:
"Iβll take my pi to my grave if this price stays."
"I havenβt sold yet."
Comments suggest that while many believe in the project's potential, they are increasingly disillusioned by a perceived lack of supply control and clarity from leadership.
As Pi faces a staggering 94% price drop, discussions around its future continue to grow. Many people argue that if current market conditions don't improve, this selling trend may persist.
Furthermore, recent discussions on user boards indicate that broader market dynamics are impacting sentiments, with one comment stating:
"Basic economics: if nobody wants to buy it, the price collapses."

π¬ Community sentiments: "If all 14.5M pioneers sell their 10Pi, it would be a small amount for such a big number of pioneers!"
Overall, the Pi community is grappling with uncertainty. Some people remain hopeful for recovery, especially with significant events like Pi Day approaching, while others question whether the core team can restore faith and utility. The next few months look critical as these developments unfold, prompting potential changes in user engagement and price stability.
