Developer Advocates For Pi Network Community To Launch Liquidity Pool To Stablilize Pi Coin Price
Amid frantic calls for a masterstroke for Pi Network price stability, one developer is picking up the gauntlet to launch a decentralized solution. The plan, a community-driven liquidity pool (CDLP), has received widespread support from the Pi Network community, stoking belief for an imminent launch.
Developer Urges Pi Network Community To Proceed With Community-Driven Liquidity Pool (CDLP)
The pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto has confirmed plans to proceed with the launch of a CDLP for Pi Network. According to an X post, the developer disclosed that the launch plans come on the heels of overwhelming community support for the initiative after a poll.
The CDLP, a decentralized price stabilization mechanism, involves Pi Network community members purchasing a fixed amount of Pi coins each month. Using the dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategy, the steady purchases will create a decentralized liquidity pool with Pi coins controlled solely by investors.
Nakamoto shared a poll to gauge community opinion on the initiative on X, with 69% of votes supporting the idea. Going forward, the developer plans for the CDLP are underway, a valiant attempt to prevent steep price drops.
“Based on the results of the previous vote, we are officially establishing the CDLP community framework,” said Nakamoto.
He adds that the next phase will be the appointment of moderators for the CDLP from the Pi network community. While details for the framework are sparse, Nakamoto notes that the CDLP’s operation will follow the core principles of stabilizing the Pi price.
What Is The End Goal For The CDLP?
While the primary purpose of the CDLP is to stabilize the Pi coin price from sharp drops, Nakamoto says the initiative will have a far-reaching impact. He adds that a stable Pi price will provide a conducive atmosphere for developers to thrive.
Furthermore, businesses will be incentivized to accept Pi as a payment method, broadening its reach beyond Southeast Asia. In his submission, long-term Pi holders will receive rewards from Pi ecosystem projects and decentralized applications (DApps).
“As the community grows, Pi will become an increasingly adopted medium of payments and transactions,” added Nakamoto.
Community members like Dr Altcoin have called on the PiCoreTeam (PCT) to take decisive action to stabilize Pi Coin. Furthermore, Dr Altcoin suggests burning Pi tokens locked up in foundation wallets.
After a steep decline that saw the price lose 19% over the last week, the Pi price is recovering with optimists eyeing a rally beyond $3. Pi Network price currently hovers around $0.5 but the broader crypto market selloff threatens its recovery.

The Shiba Inu burn rate once again shot up by a staggering 2000% on Tuesday, reverberating market optimism surrounding its future price movements. Recent burn metrics revealed that over 20 million SHIB tokens were removed from the asset’s circulating supply in just a day. Now, crypto market traders and investors speculate if price gains loom, whilst a renowned SHIB community member further revealed that a “new pump wave is loading.”
Shiba Inu Burn Rate Soars 2000% As 20M Tokens Burnt
According to Shibburn’s data on April 15, the Shiba Inu burn rate exploded by 2061.22% at the time of reporting. This surge in the meme token’s burn rate is in sync with 20.83 million coins removed from the asset’s supply intraday.
For context, the SHIB burn mechanism transfers tokens to a null address and makes their recovery impossible. This saga drastically reduces the dog-themed meme coin‘s circulating supply, a reason that many believe is driving SHIB’s relatively sluggish performance over the years.
Besides, a renowned Wall Street expert going by the name “wallstreetbets” on X has stated that “Despite burns, SHIB supply remains unchanged.” This statement has ushered an apprehensive sentiment among market participants who are anticipating price gains ahead in light of the constant burns. Intriguingly, CoinGape found that the total circulating supply rested at 584.37 trillion tokens at the time of reporting.
Can SHIB Price Pump Ahead?
CoinMarketCap’s data showed that SHIB token’s price rested at $0.00001193, down nearly 3% over the day despite the Shiba Inu burn rate surge. The meme coin fell from an intraday high of $0.00001239, even hitting a bottom of $0.00001182. Crypto market participants are currently uncertain about the coin’s future price movements, given broader market trends and a volatile price trajectory.
Nevertheless, renowned Shiba Inu community member SHIB Knight posted on X that a “new pump wave is loading.” Notably, a sustained break above $0.00001238 paves the way for a bull run, per the community member. Traders and investors continue to monitor the coin for further price action shifts ahead.

In the wake of the jarring incident around Mantra, community members are calling for Pi Network to glean valuable lessons from the black swan event. Pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst Dr Altcoin wants the PiCoreTeam (PCT) to establish key guardrails to prevent a repeat of the OM incident for the Pi Network.
The OM Incident Is A Huge Lesson For Pi Network
Cryptocurrency expert Dr Altcoin has urged the Pi Network to learn valuable lessons from the grim Mantra (OM) incident. According to a post on X, Dr Altcoin called on the PiCoreTeam to lay a proper foundation to prevent steep price drops for token prices.
The price of Mantra (OM) fell from $6.32 to $0.57 in one steep drop that left investors scratching their heads. OM, once ranked among the top 50 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, tumbled by over 90% in a day, stoking speculations of a rug pull.
While the official explanation puts the blame on liquidations, a consensus is forming that the steep drop is a “carefully orchestrated dump.” Market losses totaled $6 billion as a cohort of crypto traders lost $400 million after buying OM three days before the incident.
However, Dr Altcoin wants the PCT to speed up the development of ecosystem guardrails to prevent a repeat of the incident for Pi Network. Dr Altcoin has his eyes on the clock, urging the PCT to set up robust infrastructure before the transition to open mainnet.
“The OM incident is a wake-up call for the entire crypto industry – proof that stricter regulations are urgently needed,” said Dr Altcoin. “It also serves as a HUGE lesson for the PCT as we transition from the Open Network to the Open Mainnet.
Belief In the PiCoreTeam Is Waning
While a cross-section of community members will argue that the PCT is not scheming a rug pull, there is rising dissent in the ecosystem. Dr Altcoin remarks that faith in the PCT is waning given a trail of transparency issues facing the Pi Network in recent weeks.
“One thing is clear about the PCT,” wrote Dr Altcoin on X. “They are not transparent.”
Questions about the PCT’s transparency first reared its head over the murkiness of the locking and burning mechanism for Pi Coins. Furthermore, delays in issuing KYB approvals for projects leading to PiDaoSwap launching NFTs on the Binance Chain inflamed soured optimism for the PCT.
Dr Altcoin notes that if the PCT fast-tracks the KYB process for centralized exchanges, it will unlock the floodgates of demand for Pi ahead of the transition
At the moment, Pi miners are capitulating casting a shadow of doubt over the direction of Pi Coin price. Pi Coin is on the rise, climbing by nearly 30% over the last seven days to trade at $0.7404 but the specter of a drop to 0.3 hangs like a Sword of Damocles.

Canada is set to launch the world’s first spot Solana ETFs after receiving regulatory approval from the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). The green light allows several issuers, including Purpose, Evolve, CI, and 3iQ, to list their Solana ETFs.
The new financial products will be available to investors starting April 16, 2025, marking an important development in the cryptocurrency investment space.
Canada Approves Multiple Spot Solana ETFs
According to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, the OSC approved multiple SOL ETFs today. These ETFs will hold actual Solana tokens rather than relying on futures contracts, offering investors direct exposure to the cryptocurrency.
Purpose, Evolve, CI, and 3iQ are among the firms that have secured approval to launch these innovative products.
The launch of these ETFs coincides with an upward surge in the price of Solana. Over the past week, the price of Solana has seen a notable increase of 25%. Experts suggest that the growing institutional interest in Solana, further bolstered by these ETF products, could soon lead to even greater price appreciation. As the world’s first spot Solana ETFs hit the market, the launch is a critical step forward for altcoin-based investment products.
Staking Features and Yield Benefits
The newly approved SOL ETFs will engage in staking, which offers potential benefits for ETF investors, including enhanced returns compared to traditional investments.
Staking can improve yields and offset holding costs, making these ETFs more attractive. However, according to Balchunas, TD Bank will assist in processing staking information but will not directly facilitate it.
Staking could provide an edge for SOL ETFs over other cryptocurrency ETFs, such as Ethereum-based ETFs, especially with US SEC delaying Grayscale’s ETH Spot ETF staking proposal. The yield from staking and the token’s performance could offer additional incentives for investors looking to diversify their portfolios.
Solana Whale Moves and Growing ETF Expectations in the US
The approval of spot SOL ETFs in Canada comes during heightened activity in the Solana market. Amid the market activity, a whale moved 762,416 SOL, worth approximately $101 million, according to Whale Alert.
In another instance, 790,427 SOL, valued at over $105 million, was moved between unknown wallets. These large-scale transactions suggest that whales, or large holders of Solana, are preparing for future moves, possibly in anticipation of the market momentum the new ETFs could trigger. The approval of the first spot Solana ETFs in Canada follows the recent launch of the first-ever XRP ETF, Teucrium 2x Long Daily, in the U.S.
Concurrently, several major firms have already filed for approval to offer SOL ETFs in the United States. These firms include Grayscale, 21Shares, Bitwise, VanEck, and Franklin Templeton. In addition to the Canadian approval, market expectations for the approval of SOL ETFs in the United States are rising. Polymarket traders now assign an 81% probability to approving a Solana ETF by the end of 2025, up from just 65% in early 2025.
