With the promise of user-friendly mobile crypto mining and a growing community of enthusiasts and supporters, the Pi Network quickly became one of the top projects in recent years. So it wasn’t surprising that its native token, PI, promptly raced to its all-time high of $2.99 when the developers launched the Pi mainnet.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Set For 10x Surge?

While this news immediately pushed the price down, the dev team assured holders and investors that things would improve soon.

The Road Ahead For Pi Network In recent days, the Pi Network has been caught in heated discussions about the unclear rules for establishing the Pi Network Super Node. Many pioneers and crypto analysts are questioning the team and asking if it’s a transparent and decentralized project. Making matters worse is the recent data from PiScan showing that the Pi Network’s team keeps nearly 83 billion coins out of the total 100 billion in circulation.
