this is normal that they must meet some criteria, but putting that aside, pi is a messy project especially considering how it started with security, many were left without pi like me

Why is Pi (PI) not listed on Binance?
Although the Pi cryptocurrency is tradable on other major exchanges like OKX and Bitget, Binance refuses to list it for the following reasons:
Regulation and Security (KYC/AML): Binance imposes rigorous security audits and complete KYC (Know Your Customer) checks of its user base. The slow pace of the KYC process from Pi Network and the lack of a third-party security audit are major obstacles.
Tokenomics Transparency: The economic structure of Pi is considered opaque. There is insufficient clarity regarding the distribution of coins, the actual supply in circulation, and the control that the core team exercises over the total supply of 100 billion PI.
