Pi Network Price Forecast: PI rallies with the MiCA-compliant whitepaper release

Pi Network exceeds the 50-day EMA with a 4% rise on Thursday, marking its sixth day of uptrend.
The release of the MiCA whitepaper for the European markets boosts demand and sentiment around Pi Network.
The technical outlook indicates a bullish incline as recovery gains momentum.

Pi Network (PI) is up 11% so far this week, underpinned by its whitepaper on the Market in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulations for the European Union (EU) markets. The technical outlook remains bullish as PI exceeds the long-standing dynamic resistance, the 50-day Exponential Moving Average, preparing for a breakout rally.

Pi Network’s MiCA whitepaper could open the gate to the European market

Pi Network is heating up with the release of its MiCA regulations compliance whitepaper, a legal and technical filing submitted to request permission to start trading in the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA). Although the whitepaper is linked to the official Pi Network website, there is no clear announcement from the Pi core team or its founders.

Furthermore, the whitepaper highlights the initial listing request for OKCoin Europe Ltd (OKX Europe), with a start date of November 28. Pi Network positions for a potential increase in trading volume that could support a price surge, typically seen with listing in new markets.

As of Thursday, PI is listed on five Centralized Exchanges (CEXs), which are holding a total balance of 426.33 million tokens. With the release of the MiCA regulation whitepaper, the increased demand for CEXs has led to a net outflow of 1.75 million PI, suggesting buy-side dominance.

Pi Network exceeds the 50-day EMA

Pi Network trades near the $0.2500 level, holding above the 50-day EMA at $0.2431. The short-term six-day recovery run is approaching the $0.2643 level, marked by the September 26 close, which served as key resistance in late October.

If PI successfully ends a day above this level, it could confirm a resurgent bullish trend, potentially targeting the $0.3220 as the immediate resistance, aligning with the August 1 low.

In line with the recovery run, the momentum indicators on the daily chart suggest heightened buying activity. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) rises above the signal line, accompanied by a fresh wave of advancing green histogram bars, indicating increased bullish momentum.

Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 62 is moving north, with further room for growth before it hits the overbought zone.

If PI fails to hold above the 50-day EMA, it would extend the dynamic resistance's dominance. In such a case, the PI token could retrace towards the $0.2000 round figure.
