  • Pi Coin sees real-world payment use surge via 580+ Korean, US businesses
  • Adoption includes high-value (real estate, cars); some SK stores value Pi at $37
  • Banxa buys $19M Pi, adds card/wallet access, boosting usability & legitimacy

Pi Coin is beginning to defy its skeptics as its user base grows from online trading into actual real-world payments. 

The cryptocurrency, which gained rapid attention in 2025 for its community-driven mining model, now finds acceptance from businesses in South Korea and the U.S.

From Skincare to Surgery: How 580+ Korean & US Firms Are Using Pi

In South Korea, over 580 retailers—including skincare brands and even a plastic surgery clinic—now accept Pi Coin, with some merchants exclusively conducting transactions in Pi. The valuation in some of these stores reportedly reaches up to $37 per coin, reflecting growing faith in its purchasing power.

Meanwhile, in Florida, Zito Realty has started accepting Pi Coin for real estate deals, while Cube Motors is offering vehicle sales using Pi, extending the coin’s use case into high-value transactions. The growing business adoption happens as Florida shows more openness to crypto, where lawmakers recently advanced a bill to establish a state-level Bitcoin reserve.

Pi Coin is also catching up with fintech infrastructure. Banxa, a leading payment processor, recently bought 30.5 million Pi Coins—estimated at nearly $19 million—and now enables users to access Pi Coin via cards and wallets. 

Pi Coin Chart Signals Strength: Can Price Break Key Resistance?

On the technical front, Pi/USDT has broken out of a symmetrical triangle pattern on the 4-hour chart, reclaiming key moving averages including the 20 EMA ($0.6173) and 50 EMA ($0.6210).

The RSI stands at 67.56, showing strong buying interest without immediate overbought exhaustion, while MACD presents a widening histogram—indicating bullish momentum.

Price now challenges the $0.70–$0.75 resistance area. A move above this level could confirm a larger trend change higher.
