Pi Network Price traded near $0.0958 on Tuesday, gaining about 1.3% as traders monitored catalysts.
The token stayed below $0.10, although its recovery from September’s early weakness improved short-term sentiment.
Bitcoin price hovered below $79,000, while Ethereum traded around $2,500 as the wider cryptocurrency market pulled back.
XRP price remained close to $1.40, reflecting positioning before inflation reports and next week’s policy events.
PI’s hold above $0.095 represents one bullish sign because that level can become a base for another breakout attempt.
Protocol 27 Upgrade Targets September 15
Protocol 27 entered Testnet 1 on August 21 after Protocol 26 completed its Mainnet rollout.
The Protocol 27 of Pi Network, which is due to be launched on September 15, is supposed to offer smart contract verification, DEX and AMM architecture, liquidity instruments, enhanced applications, and utility to payments. Pioneers are advised to maintain Nodes because the ecosystem is ready to be expanded.
The upgrade introduces flexible smart-contract authentication and improved RPC infrastructure, making blockchain access easier for external developers.
📅 September 15, 2026 — Protocol 27 is on the horizon for Pi Network.
This upgrade is expected to bring important improvements to the ecosystem’s technical infrastructure. ⚙️

It also prepares automated market-maker pools and decentralized exchange functions for production use across Pi’s ecosystem.
The utility of PI including token swaps, liquidity provision, applications, and new launches can be enhanced with a successful launch.
PI remains vulnerable to token unlocks, meaning positive delivery must attract enough activity to absorb additional circulating supply.
Developer Progress Meets CLARITY Act And FOMC Risks
Pi’s September 4 developer release added local storage for whitelisted Browser apps and an app-specific staking data API.
Developers also received Pi.shareFile, which supports native file and video sharing without separate sharing systems.
A consolidated documentation hub now covers registration, sandbox development, authentication, payments, Mainnet preparation, and application launches.
Washington will provide another catalyst through the Senate’s scheduled September 15 CLARITY Act cloture vote.
The procedural vote requires 60 senators and could open debate over clearer SEC and CFTC responsibilities.
Approval may support crypto confidence, while rejection could renew concerns about regulatory delays during an election year.
September 15 also begins the Federal Reserve’s two-day FOMC meeting, with its policy decision due September 16.
Any surprise on rates or future guidance could quickly influence Bitcoin, altcoins, liquidity conditions, and PI.
Pi Network Price Prediction: Key Levels To Watch Ahead Of September 15
Pi Network price has to fight to keep below the resistance of 0.098 to 0.10 and then it has to fight to keep below the resistance of 0.095.
Any day close above $0.10 may reveal $0.106 then $0.11 in a more robust momentum growth.
Should Protocol 27 capture new demand traders can then take the help of $0.12 as a long-term Pi coin projection for September.
The current RSI of 64 is above the neutral mark without showing any overheating of the market.
At the same time, MACD of 12 days and 26 days are close to zero, indicating that the momentum is not accelerating completely.
On the other hand, a loss of $0.095 would shift the focus back to $0.09, with supports of 0.085 and 0.08.
