A Reality Check Pi Holders Might Not Want to Hear

A Reality Check Pi Holders Might Not Want to Hear

The post A Reality Check Pi Holders Might Not Want to Hear appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 23 September 2025 | 17:10 Recent Pi Network price predictions are disheartening. Once praised as a mobile-driven crypto revolution, Pi Network has left many holders with significant losses, with prices still over 65% below their peak. Growing doubts about its viability stem from its limited utility. As uncertainty about Pi Network’s future increases, traders are turning their attention to presale opportunities with actual potential, such as Layer Brett ($LBRETT), which is gaining momentum.

Investors should be careful because recent Pi Network price predictions show there is a chance that prices will drop again soon. How Layer Brett Breaks the Mold Layer Brett stands out for several key reasons. Currently in presale at just $0.0058, having already raised over $3.9 million, it offers far more than Pi Network ever did. Staking is live, boasting an impressive 660%+ APY, though this yield decreases as more wallets join, creating an inherent sense of urgency. Unlike…
