The Pi Network (PI) has returned to crypto news in a big way following a dramatic 35% increase in a single week, fuelled primarily by its recent Chainlink integration, which analysts predict has the potential to release a 220% upside in the next several months.
Chainlink Integration: A Game-Changer for Pi
On April 12, Chainlink formally integrated Pi Network into its decentralised oracle network. This allows Pi to now obtain real-time, verified data through Chainlink’s Data Streams—a key step in supporting decentralised finance (DeFi) applications such as lending, staking, and price forecasting.
The market reacted instantly. Pi’s price jumped from $0.63 to $0.78 within hours of the announcement, and though it has slightly corrected, the momentum remains strong. More importantly, this integration makes Pi more useful to developers building outside its ecosystem, increasing the token’s potential real-world utility.

Strengthening the Pi Ecosystem
Pi’s infrastructure is growing steadily. Since its mainnet launch in February 2025, more than 10 million users have migrated to the new network. Over 100 decentralised apps (dApps) are in development, covering gaming, e-commerce, and finance.
One of the standout features is the Pi Ad Network, in which advertisers need to pay using Pi Coin to advertise in dApps, providing the token with an inherent use case. Yet, just 19 million users have gone through the necessary KYC verification, and technical setbacks in doing so continue to infuriate many within the community.
Can Pi Reach $2.48?
Predictions are positive. CoinCodex sees Pi potentially rallying more than 220% to $2.48 in mid-May. Daily momentum indicators also suggest a trend of buying, although short-term corrections are likely. DigitalCoinPrice provides a conservative prediction, with Pi potentially averaging $1.53 per year in 2025.
Still, Pi remains a speculative play. The token isn’t listed on major exchanges, and limited trading access means volatility is high. Until broader KYC completion and exchange listings happen, Pi’s growth may remain capped.
Final Thoughts
The Chainlink integration adds real value to Pi Network’s ecosystem and could attract both developers and investors. But while the infrastructure is falling into place, user accessibility and technical reliability will be key in determining whether this surge is a blip or the beginning of Pi’s long-awaited breakout.
