A recent post on X (formerly Twitter) raised suspicion that the co-founder of Pi Network, Nicolas Kokkalis, might have become a victim of a hacking attack. In the following lines, we will examine what happened and what every member of the community needs to know.

Hack or Not?

Earlier this week, one of Pi Network’s co-founders, Dr. Chengdiao Fan, announced that the project has deployed new decentralized exchange (DEX) and automated market maker (AMM) liquidity pool features to its blockchains. The tools (initially available only on Testnet) allow Pioneers to experiment directly with token swaps and provide education about DeFi before participating on Mainnet and interacting with real PI tokens.

The update stirred huge enthusiasm across the community, with many members flooding X to celebrate the news. One dubious account, which is not the official one behind the crypto project, also highlighted the key benefits of the development.

Interestingly, Pi Network co-founder Nicolas Kokkalis forwarded the post, sparking speculation that hackers may have breached his X account.

PI users are strongly advised to stay cautious and avoid falling for misleading updates or unverified announcements. To stay safe, they should rely exclusively on trusted sources of information, such as the official Pi Network account on X and other confirmed communication channels managed by the team.

PI Price Outlook

Despite the big Pi Network update and the substantial resurgence of the crypto market, Pi Network’s native token remains in red territory. It has plummeted by 25% on a monthly scale, currently trading at roughly $0.26 (per CoinGecko’s data).

Many community members have started to lose hope that the asset can reclaim its peak levels witnessed at the start of 2025, whereas some important metrics suggest that the pullback might intensify in the short term.

The amount of tokens stored on crypto exchanges continues to rise, which increases the selling pressure. On top of that, millions of coins are set to be unlocked over the next 30 days, giving investors an opportunity to cash out.

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

The post Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday opted to ease interest rates for the first time in months, leading the way for potentially lower mortgage rates, bond yields and a likely boost to cryptocurrency over the coming weeks. Average long-term mortgage rates dropped to their lowest levels in months ahead of the central bank’s policy shift. Copyright{2018} The Associated Press. All rights reserved. Key Facts The central bank’s policymaking panel voted this week to lower interest rates, which have sat between 4.25% and 4.5% since December, to a new range of 4% and 4.25%. How Will Lower Interest Rates Impact Mortgage Rates? Mortgage rates tend to fall before and during a period of interest rate cuts: The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage dropped to 6.35% from 6.5% last week, the lowest level since October 2024, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported. Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also dropped to 5.5% from 5.6% as they neared the year-ago rate of 5.27%. When the Federal Reserve lowered the funds rate to between 0% and 0.25% during the pandemic, 30-year mortgage rates hit record lows between 2.7% and 3% by the end of 2020, according to data published by Freddie Mac. Consumers who refinanced their mortgages in 2020 saved about $5.3 billion annually as rates dropped, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Similarly, mortgage rates spiked around 7% as interest rates were hiked in 2022 and 2023, though mortgage rates appeared to react within weeks of the Fed opting to cut or raise rates. How Do Treasury Bonds Respond To Lower Interest Rates? Long-term Treasury yields are more directly influenced by interest rates, as lower rates tend to result in lower yields. When the Fed pushed rates to near zero during the pandemic, 10-year Treasury yields fell to an all-time low of 0.5%. As…
