Pi Network Misses Out—Again
Binance recently launched the second edition of its Vote to List initiative, where users can vote for their preferred tokens to be added to the exchange. This time, 12 cryptocurrencies have been shortlisted, including VIRTUAL, BIGTIME, UXLINK, MORPHO, GRASS, ATH, WAL, SAFE, ZETA, IP, ONDO, and PLUME. However, Pi Network is nowhere to be found, mirroring its exclusion from the first edition of the program back in March.
According to Binance, only BNB-based projects are eligible to participate in the Vote to List initiative. This statement makes it clear that Pi Network does not currently meet Binance’s criteria, at least for this listing method.
Why Isn’t Binance Listing Pi Network?
Pi Network’s absence from Binance continues to frustrate its supporters, many of whom were hoping for an official listing. Industry experts believe a lack of transparency from the PiCoreTeam (PCT) may be a key reason behind Binance’s reluctance.
In particular, Binance has previously criticized the PCT for failing to provide clear details about Pi Network’s locking and burning mechanisms—important factors for major exchanges when considering new listings.
Despite this setback, Pi Network recently secured a listing on BTCC Exchange, inching closer to wider market acceptance. However, without a Binance listing, Pi’s mainstream adoption remains in limbo.
Will Binance List Pi in the Future?
Although Pi Network has missed out on the Vote to List initiative, a direct listing is still a possibility. Binance has the authority to list Pi Network at its discretion, but as of now, no official timeline has been provided.
Meanwhile, Pi Network’s PCT domain auction continues to gain momentum, attracting over 200,000 bids. However, Pi’s market performance remains weak, with the token dropping nearly 5% in the last 24 hours, now trading at $0.6646—its lowest price in over a month.
For now, Pi Network enthusiasts can only wait and see if the project can address Binance’s concerns and finally secure its long-awaited listing.
