Pi Wallet Upgrade Fuels Binance Speculation Amid Volume Surge

Pi Network has set the crypto community abuzz with back-to-back wallet updates that suggest a potential integration with Binance. Pi Wallet quietly added the new features, Binance Connect and Binance P2P support. This immediately sparked speculation across social media. 

Pi Network Alerts on X amplified the buzz with a post asking, “Are you ready to trade $Pi on Binance?” The post sent Pi believers into overdrive, flooding timelines with bullish predictions and Pi IDs.

At the same time, Pi rolled out a “Buy” button in the wallet interface, enabling users to purchase $PI directly using fiat currencies. The new feature uses services like Banxa and Onramper to onboard users, making Pi more accessible to the masses. The listed price during the update showed 1 Pi trading for 0.80 AUD.

Volume Spikes as Market Reacts

The news lit a fire under trading activity. Pi’s 24-hour volume soared to $114.06 million, marking a 41.44% increase. That’s a serious jump for a token often sidelined by mainstream exchanges. Pi price climbed to $0.46, with a 2.87% gain in the last 24 hours. Though still short of recent highs, the sudden uptick in both price and volume reflects growing confidence, or FOMO, among traders.

Pi Coin weekly chart on Coinmarketcap

A 7-day price chart shows $PI was mostly flat or slightly bearish before a sharp surge on July 22, aligning perfectly with the wallet update rollout. That spike topped $0.52 before correcting slightly, but momentum appears to be holding steady as of July 23.

Community Speculates on Binance Listing

There’s been no official confirmation from Binance. Pi Network’s wallet features now resemble key pre-listing integrations seen with other tokens. Binance Connect, a fiat-to-crypto gateway, is often used in the lead-up to full platform support.

The Pi community is leaning into the narrative. Users flooded social channels, celebrating what they believe is a step closer to major exchange support. Pi Network Alerts even teased followers with a “$Pi Surprise” for retweets and Pi ID drops.

What’s Next for Pi?

With over 7.71 billion $PI in circulation and a market cap of $3.58 billion, Pi Network is clearly preparing for something big. Whether Binance is truly next remains uncertain, but the signs are stacking up. And in crypto, where speculation moves faster than code, this might just be the beginning.
