Although it was stopped at $0.088 at first and slipped toward $0.08, that support managed to hold, and the asset went on an impressive run.<\/p>\n<p>By August 6, it had climbed above $0.09 and even surged past $0.096. As the community was hopeful for another leg up toward the major $0.10 level, the token was rejected and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-pi-slips-5-daily-but-community-sentiment-remains-strongly-bullish\/\">dipped<\/a> below $0.09 once again last Friday. Nevertheless, the bulls <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-reclaims-key-support-bitcoin-btc-fights-for-65k-weekend-watch\/\">reemerged<\/a> during the weekend and helped reclaim that line. PI peaked at $0.094 on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n<p>As it typically happens when it stages a notable rally, though, the bears are usually close by, ready to halt its move north. The same occurrence took place in the past several hours, as PI was stopped at $0.092 and pushed below the key $0.09 support. It dropped to $0.084 minutes ago, where the buyers stepped up and helped it recover to the current $0.086.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/PI-1.png\"><\/a>Pi Network (PI) Price on CoinGecko<\/p>\n<p>Its market cap has dropped below $950 million, making it the 67th-largest cryptocurrency by that metric on CoinGecko.<\/p>\n<h2>Big Deadline Arrives<\/h2>\n<p>Aside from PI\u2019s price moves, Pioneers\u2019 attention today is also turned to the second-to-last protocol upgrades (version 26), which, as <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-network-sets-major-update-deadline-as-pi-surges-past-key-resistance\/\">reported<\/a> last week, are supposed to be completed by August 11. The Core Team later <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-surges-5-despite-market-slump-after-important-pi-network-reminder\/\">reminded<\/a> Mainnet Nodes that they need to upgrade to the new version by today or risk being disconnected from the network.<\/p>\n<p>The team has previously outlined the significance of version 26, the last step before the final upgrade to version 27. They have already completed eight successful migrations since the start of the year.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting, though, that some of those upgrades came without an official announcement from Pi Network. As such, version 26 could also be deployed without a big statement, but there\u2019s no chatter about it on social media as of press time.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pi-networks-pi-crashes-below-key-support-as-pioneers-await-major-update-today\/\">Pi Network\u2019s PI Crashes Below Key Support as Pioneers Await Major Update Today<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pi Network\u2019s native token experienced a substantial resurgence over the past several days, but its run has been halted, and it has now dropped below the key support at $0.09.
