As of March 8, 2025, Pi Network has climbed to the third position among the most followed cryptocurrency projects on X (formerly Twitter), surpassing long-standing names such as Ethereum and Binance Coin (BNB). With over 4 million followers, Pi Coin has established itself as one of the most visible blockchain projects on social media, following only Bitcoin and Dogecoin.

Bitcoin remains the leading cryptocurrency in terms of followers, with an estimated 7.6 million users connected to its official X account. Right behind, Dogecoin holds approximately 4.3 million followers, maintaining its place as a widely followed meme-based asset. However, Pi Network’s rise into the top ranks reflects a growing interest and engagement from its global community. The project, which operates with a mobile-based mining model, has managed to build a strong online presence despite not being listed on major cryptocurrency exchanges.

The announcement marking this achievement came directly from the official Pi Network account, which stated: “Pi Network is now over 4 million followers on X! Thank you to everyone in the Pi community for making this possible.” The message also reminded users to rely only on the verified communication channels of the project, warning: “Make sure you follow and get information from the authentic official Pi social media accounts!

The growth in social media presence can be seen as part of Pi Network’s broader strategy to solidify its base ahead of entering the open network phase. In the current landscape, where visibility can shape public perception and user trust, follower metrics have gained importance, even if they don’t necessarily indicate a project's technical success or market value. Yet, they do highlight community engagement and outreach capabilities.

Other projects in the top 10 include Shiba Inu, Solana, XRP, Baby Doge Coin, and TRON, all maintaining millions of followers. But Pi Coin’s ability to leap ahead of projects like Ethereum (approximately 3.71 million followers) and BNB (around 3.75 million) in a relatively short time frame has added a new dimension to the competitive dynamics within the blockchain ecosystem.

Here is the current list of the most followed cryptocurrencies on X as of March 8, 2025:

Rank Cryptocurrency Approx. Follower Count
1. Bitcoin (BTC) 7,600,000
2. Dogecoin (DOGE) 4,300,000
3. Pi Network (PI) 4,000,000+
4. Shiba Inu (SHIB) 3,900,000
5. Binance Coin (BNB) 3,750,000
6. Ethereum (ETH) 3,710,000
7. Solana (SOL) 3,300,000
8. XRP (XRP) 3,090,000
9. Baby Doge Coin 2,600,000
10. TRON (TRX) 1,700,000

With its rising follower count, Pi Network continues to draw attention to its development path and community activity. While the project’s full integration into the wider market is still pending, its position on social media demonstrates the potential of user-driven momentum within the crypto space.
