Pi Network (PI) continued to face downward pressure on Friday, as bearish technical indicators continued to dominate the charts, fueling bearish risks despite the launch of various initiatives by the project to promote its ecosystem.

At the time of writing, PI is trading at $0.1832, down 2.04% over the last 24 hours, with daily trading volume of $19.42 million and an estimated market capitalization of $1.54 billion, according to data from CoinMarketCap. The decline comes amid fragile broader altcoin sentiment, leaving lower-liquidity tokens vulnerable to extended weakness.

From the technical standpoint, PI continues to be in an ongoing downtrend in the weekly chart. This is due to the formation of consecutive red candles, implying an increased possibility of an all-time low in the event of an inability to hold the current support levels. This is according to the views of various analysts.

PI Signals Potential Reversal as RSI Diverges

However, some early signs indicate that the bearish momentum could be weakening somewhat. For instance, in a technical analysis shared publicly recently by crypto analyst CryptoPulse on the technical trends in the crypto market, the analyst identified a bullish divergence on the Relative Strength Index (RSI).

As per the above analysis, PI may be trying to create a Double Bottom formation, as this formation is often tracked for the reversal of the trend.

However, the key level of resistance to be tracked is between $0.25 and $0.29; this range represents the neck of the formation. To track the change in the trend of the asset, the asset needs to move above this range.

Pi Network Expands App Studio Ecosystem

Beyond price action, Pi Network continues to move forward with its development roadmap. This includes recent announcements regarding Pi App Studio, which highlighted the team’s intentions regarding further app creation throughout 2026. This includes new initiatives geared towards creators.

According to the update, the new tools are meant to help developers make Pi-based payments with a simplified, interactive process that does not require advanced technical expertise. There is also the offer of a free-of-cost option that Pi Network is providing, which is meant to make the process even more accessible.

Additionally, as part of this initiative, the members of the community, known as the Pioneers, have the opportunity to take a short survey through the App Studio Program. They will receive 5 PI credits if they are part of the first 1,000 participants, which can only be used within the App Studio environment.

These efforts will accelerate the testing, development, and usage of the Pi Network applications. Although the short-term performance of the market is challenged, the long-term outlook of PI can be influenced if the broader market conditions improve.

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?

The post Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In recent crypto news, Stephen Miran swore in as the latest Federal Reserve governor on September 16, 2025, slipping into the board’s last open spot right before the Federal Open Market Committee kicks off its two-day rate discussion. Traders are betting heavily on a 25-basis-point trim, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.00%-4.25%, based on CME FedWatch Tool figures from September 15, 2025. Miran, who’s been Trump’s top economic advisor and a supporter of his trade ideas, joins a seven-member board where just three governors come from Democratic picks, according to the Fed’s records updated that same day. Crypto News: Miran’s Background and Quick Path to Confirmation The Senate greenlit Miran on September 15, 2025, with a tight 48-47 vote, following his nomination on September 2, 2025, as per a recent crypto news update. His stint runs only until January 31, 2026, stepping in for Adriana D. Kugler, who stepped down in August 2025 for reasons not made public. Miran earned his economics Ph.D. from Harvard and worked at the Treasury back in Trump’s first go-around. Afterward, he moved to Hudson Bay Capital Management as an economist, then looped back to the White House in December 2024 to head the Council of Economic Advisers. There, he helped craft Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” approach, aimed at fixing trade gaps with China and the EU. He wouldn’t quit his White House gig, which irked Senator Elizabeth Warren at the September 7, 2025, confirmation hearings. That limited time frame means Miran gets to cast a vote straight away at the FOMC session starting September 16, 2025. The full board now features Chair Jerome H. Powell (Trump pick, term ends 2026), Vice Chair Philip N. Jefferson (Biden, to 2036), and folks like Lisa D. Cook (Biden, to 2028) and Michael S. Barr…
