Story Highlights Over 86M PI tokens withdrawn from OKX spark bullish sentiment amid supply shock and 11.4% price surge in 24 hours. Allegations claim Pi Network Core Team sold 50M PI post-Consensus 2025; community demands transparency. On May 21st, over 86 million PI tokens were withdrawn from the OKX exchange within hours, sparking speculation across the Pi Network community. While many view this as a bullish indicator due to reduced circulating supply, controversy brews as accusations emerge that the Core Team may have sold up to 50 million PI tokens post-Consensus 2025. Currently, PI price is up 11.4% in the last 24 hours, trading at $0.8268—signaling a strong bullish sentiment in the market. 86 Million PI Tokens Pulled from OKX Exchange According to PI.Next.Gen, a prominent X account covering Pi Network developments, over 86 million PI tokens were withdrawn from the OKX exchange in a matter of hours.
