Chainlink Integration Fuels Pi Rally as 60 Million Users Gain DeFi Access
Market analysts attribute the recent surge in Pi’s price to the developments following Chainlink’s announcement in April regarding the expansion of its data stream.
Chainlink’s oracle network disclosed its plans to incorporate 22 new assets and seven additional protocols into its infrastructure, with Pi Network being included among the selected projects.
As a decentralized oracle network, Chainlink plays a crucial role in supplying verified, real-time data to blockchain applications, establishing itself as a vital component of contemporary decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems.
Mastercard and Chainlink have partnered to allow cardholders to purchase cryptocurrency using on-chain liquidity.
Secure fiat-to-crypto swaps are enabled by the Chainlink platform and the Mastercard global payments network.
This collaboration bridges traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi) through decentralized oracles.

This year’s event is particularly noteworthy as the community anticipates major announcements that could significantly enhance adoption rates.
The most anticipated update involves an improved Know Your Customer (KYC) synchronization feature, which will enable connections between the Pi Browser and the main Pi App, allowing users to consolidate identity verification information across both platforms.
This streamlined process could facilitate the transition of millions of users currently holding “pending” or “tentative” KYC statuses to complete their migration to the live Mainnet.
Successful migration will unlock critical features, including wallet capabilities and the ability to transfer Pi tokens onto the active blockchain network.
Moreover, with over 100 days since the Open Mainnet launched, community members are keenly awaiting announcements concerning new applications and developer tools, as any showcased practical utility might reshape market perceptions, transitioning from speculative mining to legitimate use case adoption.

Descending Wedge Pattern Broken: Analysts Target $1.25 as Pi Bulls Dominate
The PIUSDT chart illustrates a robust breakout from a descending wedge formation, a well-recognized bullish reversal structure.
This breakout renders the previous bearish trend obsolete and opens pathways for a potential uptrend. Significant upside targets include the $0.9624 and $1.0486 levels, which were previously demand zones and likely serve as resistance now.

The next critical resistance level is positioned close to the psychological $1 mark, aligning with the peak of the highlighted green supply zone.
With positive momentum favoring bulls post-breakout, the short-term outlook appears optimistic. Should the price remain above the broken wedge structure, a shift towards the $0.90 to $1.05 range seems plausible.
