Pi Network Faces Backlash: Community Opposes Binance Listing Amid Major KYC and Wallet Issues for 2025
Polls show Pi Network users largely reject a Binance listing until critical KYC and wallet problems are resolved. Here’s what you need to know.
- 70%+ of polled Pi Network users opposed a Binance listing now
- March 14, 2025 is the final deadline for KYC and token migration
- Over 10% drop in Pi coin price this week, now at $0.6526
The Pi Network community is in open revolt. In a stunning twist, a recent survey on X (formerly Twitter) revealed that most users don’t want to see the Pi coin listed on major exchanges like Binance—at least, not yet.
Instead of clamoring for rapid mainstream adoption, users are turning up the heat on Pi Network’s core developers, urging them to fix critical problems with identity verification, token unlocking, and wallet stability before seeking high-profile listings.
Why Are Pi Network Users Pushing Back Against a Binance Launch?
Pi Network’s unique KYC (Know Your Customer) system lies at the heart of the dispute.
Many users report being stuck in verification limbo—some for years—despite completing all required steps. Complaints flood community forums about a buggy process that leaves tokens “locked” until not just the user, but everyone in their “security circle,” clears KYC. Even a single unverified member stalls the process, and a shortage of participants in the Pi Validation Program keeps thousands waiting.
Frustration runs high, as users say they’ve missed critical deadlines or lost tokens outright. Community moderators draw criticism for silencing those who question the protracted delays.
How the Pi Wallet Upgrade Became a Flashpoint
Adding to user anxiety, glitches in the Pi wallet after mainnet migration have left balances inaccessible for some early adopters. Many report their hard-mined coins won’t even load following the latest update, raising alarms about the platform’s reliability just as its future hangs in the balance.
Q: What’s at Stake If Pi Doesn’t Fix These Problems by March 14?
A: Everything. The Pi Network team has made it clear: Anyone who fails KYC or to move their tokens to the mainnet by March 14, 2025, stands to lose access—permanently. With the window closing, the pressure is on for the platform to overhaul its processes and win back user trust.
Why Are Some Users Angry About Other Coins Listing Before Pi?
Discontent is fueled by the fact that newer projects like Bondex have already secured listings on Binance, while Pi holders—some of whom have been waiting since the project’s 2019 launch—remain sidelined. Approved users say it’s time for Pi to catch up, or risk losing credibility altogether.

How Can Pi Network Regain Community Support?
– Fix KYC Bottlenecks: Streamline or decentralize verification to end waiting games.
– Upgrade Wallet Stability: Address balance loading issues before migration deadlines.
– Improve Communication: Provide transparent updates and listen to user concerns.
– Align Listing Timeline with Readiness: Seek major exchange listings only after key issues are resolved.
What Steps Should Users Take Before the 2025 Deadline?
Don’t risk losing your Pi—take action now:
- Double-check your KYC application status
- Remind your “security circle” to finish their KYC steps
- Ensure your wallet balance appears after migration
- Follow official Pi Network channels for critical updates
- Mark March 14, 2025, as the final cutoff for migration
