Pi Network has announced a new partnership with Sign Protocol, a blockchain-based verification platform backed by YZi Labs – the investment arm connected to Binance founder CZ. The two projects recently held a joint meetup in Seoul during Korea Blockchain Week, where leaders from both teams discussed digital identity and interoperability.
Since CZ publicly confirmed Sign as part of his investment portfolio before the event, some Pi supporters are now wondering if this could be a step toward a long-awaited Binance listing. While nothing official has been said, the connection has sparked new hope in the community.
Sign Rallies on CZ Tweet – Pi Stays Flat
After CZ mentioned Sign Protocol on social media, Sign’s token surged briefly to $0.13 – a new all-time high – before correcting back to around $0.076. The price spike was short-lived but showed how much impact CZ’s involvement still carries.
Pi, however, saw no similar boost. It remains stuck below $0.30 and is currently trading near $0.27, just above its all-time low of $0.255 set last week. Despite the excitement around the partnership, the market has yet to respond in any meaningful way.

Binance Still Silent on Pi
It’s not the first time Pi Network has been linked to Binance. Earlier this year, the token won a community vote for a potential listing on the platform. But months later, Binance has made no public statement about the vote – and Pi remains unlisted.
This lack of movement continues to frustrate supporters, especially as other newer tokens have managed to secure listings with far less visibility. Bybit’s CEO even publicly dismissed the project as a scam, showing just how mixed the perception still is within the industry.
Another ongoing challenge is Pi’s tokenomics. Daily unlocks continue to increase the circulating supply, placing pressure on the price. While unlock rates have slowed slightly in recent weeks, larger releases are scheduled for the years ahead – with major unlocks planned for 2027.
At the same time, low liquidity and thin trading volumes on smaller exchanges make the token vulnerable to sharp price swings. These structural issues have contributed to Pi’s 90% drop from its February peak near $3, with no signs yet of a sustained recovery.

What the Partnership Could Actually Mean
The partnership with Sign Protocol does offer some potential benefits. Sign’s focus on blockchain-based identity could strengthen Pi’s ecosystem by improving user verification and trust. If the two projects deepen their integration – especially in areas like on-chain identity and compliance – it could bring Pi closer to meeting the standards required for larger exchange listings.
But it’s worth emphasizing that Binance has said nothing about Pi Network recently. The connection through Sign is indirect at best, and there’s currently no indication that a listing is being planned. For now, speculation remains just that – speculation. With Pi’s price still near all-time lows, the reality hasn’t changed much.
