Pi Network, a mobile-first cryptocurrency platform, has been named as one of the official sponsors of Consensus 2025, the world’s premier conference for crypto, web3, and AI. The event, which is hosted by CoinDesk, will be held in Toronto from May 14-16 and is regarded as the “Super Bowl” of the blockchain industry as it brings in top founders, developers, policymakers, and investors from all over the world under one roof.
Consensus 2025 Line-Up
This year’s Consensus includes well-known speakers such as Eric Trump, Kevin O’Leary, Charles Hoskinson (Cardano), Sergey Nazarov (Chainlink), and Jose Fernandez da Ponte (PayPal).
Adding to this, Dr. Nicolas Kokkalis, Pi Network’s founder and visionary, will be taking the centre stage as a featured speaker as well.
This is important for the Pi community as this indicates the network’s transition from a grassroots mobile mining project to a recognized player in the mainstream crypto ecosystem.
Why does this Sponsorship Matters?
Sponsoring Consensus 2025 is more than a branding exercise for Pi Network as this will help in legitimizing the network. The move comes just two months after Pi’s transition to its Open Network phase. This launch has opened doors for external integration, real-world use cases, and the possibility of major exchange listings.
With more than 60 million users and a rapidly expanding ecosystem, Pi Network is leveraging its sponsorship to showcase its growth within the blockchain industry, attract new partnerships, and engage with leading voices in blockchain innovation.
The community is ready to see Dr. Kokkalis on the stage, and is impatient to see what Dr. Kokkalis has to announce during his speech at Consensus 2025.
The community hopes for updates on exchange listings (Binance and Coinbase), new partnerships, or ecosystem developments that could further solidify Pi’s place in the digital asset landscape.
Pi Network Token’s Price
Even though there has been a surge in the Network’s visibility and recognition, but Pi Coin’s price has not experienced a positive effect by this announcement.
At press time, the price of the token stands at $0.6185 with a dip of 0.9% in the last 24 hours as per CoinGecko.
In the early hours of April 18, 2025, the price of the token experienced a slight uptick but this uptick did not last long. This dip in the price indicates that even though the Pi Network’s profile and credibility are increasing, the market is still cautious, and the price action is still dependent on supply dynamic and pending broader exchange adoption.
