Which Exchange Will List Pi Network Next?

The Pi Network ecosystem is always interesting to explore, with numerous updates, underlying innovations, and speculative discussions circulating. In recent times, PI exchange listings have become one of the most discussed topics within its mobile mining ecosystem. 

Since its Open Network launch on February 20, 2025, PI has secured listings on several reputable Centralized Exchanges (CEXs), fueling speculation about which major exchange might list it next. 

While the discussion of listing on Binance has cooled, most Pioneers in the crypto space still believe the platform may soon earn its place among some key exchanges. With this in mind, it makes sense to explore the current exchange listings for Pi Network, assess the likelihood of listings on top-tier platforms such as Binance and Coinbase, and analyze the factors influencing future listings.

Current Exchange Listings for Pi Network

Pi Network, launched on March 14, 2019, is a social cryptocurrency designed for accessibility, allowing Pioneers to mine PI tokens via a mobile app. Following the launch of its Open Network, PI became available for trading on several respected exchanges, marking a significant milestone for the project. 

According to recent data, the following notable exchanges currently support PI trading as of May 1, 2025:

• OKX: Offers PI/USDT trading with high volume and fiat currency support.
• BitGet: Announced PI listing in February 2025, supporting PI/USDT.
• Gate.io: Features PI/USDT with a reported 24-hour trading volume of $40.43 million as of April 25, 2025.
• MEXC: Listed PI in preparation for the mainnet launch, offering PI/USDT.
• BitMart: Supports PI/USDT and includes NFT marketplace and staking options.
• Huobi Global (HTX): Delisted PI IOUs in February 2025 but now supports mainnet PI trading.
• Pionex: Offers PI/USDT with automated trading bot features.
• Lbank: Supports PI/USDT and multiple fiat currencies.
• NovaDax: A regional exchange listing PI/USDT.
• XT.com: Facilitates high-volume PI/USDT trading.

These listings have driven significant market activity, with CoinMarketCap reporting a 24-hour trading volume of $118.5 million for PI as of the time of writing. The availability of trading pairs like PI/USDT and fiat options (TRY, EUR, USD, BRL, INR) underscores PI’s growing liquidity and accessibility.

Speculation: Binance and Coinbase

The Pi community is abuzz with speculation about whether Pi Network will secure a listing on top-tier exchanges like Binance or Coinbase, which could elevate its market presence. Particularly on X, pioneers have been discussing potential listings on both exchanges, with many highlighting that it could be a game-changer for the asset’s rise in value in the coming months. 

Binance: A Community-Driven Hope

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is a prime candidate for listing PI, driven by strong community support. In early 2025, over 2 million users participated in a Binance “Vote to List” campaign, with 86% favoring PI. However, Binance excluded PI. Some reports cited issues such as compatibility, as PI is not built on the BNB Smart Chain.

Nonetheless, some Pioneers believe that Binance’s updated listing standards might favor PI. However, these claims remain unverified, and Binance has issued no official statement. In the meantime, most pioneers feel that they have been hard done by, stating that Binance did not deliver on its promise to list the asset after the community vote was successful. For context, popular Pi Analysts, including Dr. Altcoin, called out the exchange in response to a “#AskBinance” X post on March 21.

“Why did you not keep your promise about the Pi Network? You are the ONLY CEX that conducted a community poll on listing Pi (achieving over 85% in favor), yet you are breaking your promise in front of millions of people watching you here on X. What a shame!” the reply read. 

Despite this, the community’s enthusiasm keeps Binance at the forefront of speculation.

Coinbase: An Unlikely Prospect?

Coinbase, a leading U.S.-based cryptocurrency exchange, has been relatively quiet on PI. Community discussions show demand for a listing, but Coinbase has not responded. An X post by Coinbase’s Chief Legal Officer, Paul Grewal, on Pi Day 2025 sparked speculation, but nothing came out of it.

Aside from Paul’s statement on X, the exchange has not made any announcement regarding the listing of PI or even any consideration, such as in the case of Binance. Without updates from Coinbase, a listing appears unlikely in the near term; however, community advocacy could shift this dynamic.

Factors Influencing Future Listings

The potential for Pi Network to secure additional exchange listings hinges on several key factors:

Community Engagement

With over 60 million Pioneers, Pi Network’s community is a driving force. Active discussions on platforms like Reddit and X highlight ongoing interest in new listings. Sustained engagement could pressure exchanges to consider PI, as community size is a key metric for listing decisions.

Trading Volume

High trading volume signals market demand, making PI an attractive option for exchanges. With daily volumes exceeding $100 million, there is an increased likelihood of being listed on top-tier exchanges in the long run. However, sustained or increased volume is critical to appeal to platforms like Binance or Coinbase.

KYB Approval

As revealed in our Pi Network Know Your Business (KYB) article, it is very important for platforms integrating PI to register as a business with the mobile mining blockchain. The protocol’s KYB entity page indicates that most supported exchanges, including MEXC, OKX, and Gate, have registered as a business entity. This means that Binance and Coinbase may have to undergo KYB verification should they list its native asset. 

Regulatory and Technical Challenges

Exchanges like Binance and Coinbase prioritize regulatory compliance and technical compatibility. PI’s unique blockchain and referral-based growth model has raised concerns, with some critics labeling it a potential Ponzi-style scheme. However, these concerns have somewhat cooled down since Pi’s Open mainnet went live. 

Conclusion: What’s Next for Pi Network?

Pi Network has established a strong presence on exchanges such as OKX, BitGet, and Gate.io, boasting robust trading volumes and a dedicated community. While speculation about Binance and Coinbase listings persists, no official confirmations have emerged. The path to major exchange listings depends on sustained community engagement, increased trading volume, and addressing technical and regulatory concerns.

Investors and Pioneers should monitor official Pi Network channels and credible crypto news outlets for updates. For now, the question of which exchange will list PI next remains open, with Binance the closest, primarily driven by community momentum. As Pi Network continues to grow, its ability to attract top-tier exchanges will be a key indicator of its long-term success.
