Binance excluded Pi Network from its inaugural “Vote to List” campaign despite significant community backing earlier this year. The exclusion appears to stem from eligibility requirements related to blockchain integration.
Back in February 17th, 2025, Binance conducted a separate community poll where an overwhelming 87.1% of participants supported listing PI on the exchange. However, Binance had made it clear that voting results would serve only as guidance rather than binding decisions, emphasizing that final listing determinations would require full compliance with their established standards.
Binance Introduces First-Ever Vote to List Round for BNB Smart Chain Tokens
Binance recently announced the launch of its first-ever Vote to List initiative, specifically featuring tokens on the BNB Smart Chain. The exchange emphasized community participation in their announcement, stating:
“Binance is excited to launch the first-ever Vote to List round, featuring BNB Smart Chain-Exclusive tokens! Your voice matters – start casting your votes in the next 30 minutes and help shape the future of token listings!”
The announcement generated immediate interest across the crypto community, with users rushing to participate in what Binance frames as a democratized approach to determining future listings. The initiative represents a strategic move by the exchange to engage its user base directly in listing decisions while focusing specifically on its native blockchain ecosystem.
Pi Coin Expresses Disappointment Over Not Being Listed Following the ‘Vote to List’
The Pi Network community quickly expressed frustration following the announcement. Pi News Global, a prominent voice in the Pi ecosystem, published a strongly worded response:
I just open X and see this bullshit. Bullshit because you recently made a vote in which over 800,000 people took part and almost all of them voted yes to Picoin listing.
Stop acting like some third rate junk exchange and fulfill your promises before you start the next vote. I… pic.twitter.com/dptoN2ZEEZ

This sentiment reflects growing tensions between the Pi community and Binance. Supporters point to the earlier February vote as evidence that Pi has already demonstrated the community support necessary for listing consideration. The exclusion from this new initiative has only heightened perceptions that Binance might be deliberately overlooking Pi Network despite its significant community backing.
It is not looking like it is now an automatic thing for Pi coin to be listed as expected by many. The path to earning a listing on Binance remains complicated despite previous voting successes, leaving supporters questioning the value of community-driven listing initiatives when final decisions remain at the discretion of exchanges.
