My PI tokens are coming unlocked next month. Now here's the real question—do I dump everything right away or play it smart and wait?

Timing the market is tricky. There's always that rush to cash out the moment restrictions lift, but sometimes that's when prices get hit hardest. On the flip side, holding through uncertainty has its own risks. Price movement could go either direction depending on market sentiment and broader crypto conditions.

Thinking through this one carefully before the unlock window opens.

Ah, pi coin unlocking... I advise you not to rush. This is often the easiest time to get caught in a trap.

Don't rush to sell off; acting too quickly now could lead to losses. Wait and observe the market sentiment, maybe you'll catch a better opportunity.

I've been through it all; the moment of unlocking is often when a dump happens. Just look at how those project teams operated before—many tokens were unlocked and immediately dumped.

Missing just a few details, and it will be perfect.

Instead of stressing over this, why not check out the market sentiment on the day of the unlock?

I placed a bet on PI, now it's just up to fate... NGL, the moment of dump must be satisfying, but that's often when the price is at its worst... Unlocking is like Schrödinger's coin—staying still means one price, moving means another... Hold steady and don't panic; this game tests your mentality. As for PI, it feels like it depends on how the overall market moves. As retail investors, it's hard to position precisely. Instead of trying to predict, it's better to sell in batches, so you can sleep peacefully. Why do some people always run as soon as they unlock... don't they look at the overall market? My advice? Don't sell everything at once; you can't play crazy like that. Is it really that hard to wait, or does no one really hold on? Actually, early-stage projects are like this; most likely, you'll have to sell later.

Sigh, about the Pi coin unlocking... I've seen it many times... a crowd rushing to sell off, and then the price drops straight to the floor. I've witnessed it several times firsthand.

Pi coin unlocking just to dump the market, isn't that move too old...

Bro, at the moment of unlocking, someone will definitely rush to dump, and it's hard to say whether the price can hold. My suggestion is to do it in batches, not all at once.
