Highlights
- The Pi Network seeks to reduce speculative trading risks for the Pi token by distributing it through KYB-approved partners.
- Instead of relying on centralized exchanges (CEX) to distribute tokens, Pi focuses on verified businesses and users for real-world use.
- Pi Network is paving the way for regulated cryptocurrency expansion by focusing on trust, compliance, and business verification (KYB).
Update
Pi Network is now focused on strengthening its Know Your Business (KYB) approvals as part of a strategic shift to strengthen its Pi token distribution model. KYB’s recent approvals for on-ramp fiat token providers such as Banxa, TransFi Onramp.Money, and Onramper suggest a dual distribution framework that prioritizes compliance, accessibility, and real user engagement. The goal is to prioritize the real utility of the Pi ecosystem and limit speculative trading.
Pi Network focuses on KYB approved forks
The Pi Core team is changing its Pi token distribution strategy. Instead of directly releasing large volumes of tokens to centralized exchanges (CEXs), it is distributing them to KYB-approved partner wallets. Popular community member Dr. Altcoin noted that this token distribution method helps to avoid speculative risks. The focus on a dual distribution framework, KYB for businesses and KYC for users, comes at a time when the Pi Core team is reminding users to complete KYC for migration to mainnet .
Current KYB and on-ramp platforms such as Banxa, TransFi Onramp.Money, and Onramper offer services in over 100 countries and support over 170 payment methods. This would provide broader access to Pi tokens while maintaining regulatory oversight.
Dr. Altcoin believes that this model would allow the Pi Network to expand globally and reduce exposure to price volatility, speculative manipulation, and liquidity-driven whale trading. This approach differs from traditional cryptocurrency startups that flood exchanges with tokens. Instead, the Pi model directs supply to users and businesses that want to use Pi for ecosystem purposes. This includes using Pi tokens for in-app payments, peer-to-peer transactions, and services.
In a conversation about development Dr. Altcoin noted :
“By requiring KYB (Know Your Business), Pi ensures that only verified and legitimate businesses can participate in its blockchain operations, thereby building trust and protecting Pioneers from fraud and fraudulent actors. Only KYB verified businesses can operate Pi wallets on the mainnet and conduct blockchain transactions.”
Central Exchanges (CEX) will not be the central point for Pi token distribution
While CEX listings will continue to play a role in providing liquidity, they are complementary, not central to Pi’s distribution strategy. By focusing on trust, compliance, and real-world utility, Pi Network positions itself as a potential model for how digital currencies can scale in a regulated environment.
Dr. Altcoin noted that his dual distribution model could serve as a blueprint for emerging crypto projects that are looking to bridge blockchain infrastructure with mainstream commerce. The Pi Network infrastructure is set to receive a major upgrade along with Stellar Protocol update 23 .
Challenges from the Pi Core team
Additionally, the Pi Core team is stepping up its efforts to address misinformation. In a recent email to community members, the team issued an open call to educate the wider public about fact-based content.

Conclusion
PI's rise is the result of a combination of reduced supply pressure, strategic buying by large holders, and technical signals from oversold areas. However, sustainability depends on resolving fundamental issues such as IPO delays and centralization concerns.
Important to watch: whether PI will hold support above $0,42 – breaking it could mean a return to August lows.
