Pi Network Mod Flags Scammer Wallet Linked to Multiple Token Thefts

A Pi Network moderator has flagged the wallet involved in stealing Pi tokens from multiple users. This comes just a week after the core team warned users about token security as they get ready for a possible second migration.

Pi Network Moderator Flags Scam Wallet

In a recent X post, a Pi Network moderator highlighted a suspicious wallet reportedly used by a scammer. According to them, the scam wallet user has been taking advantage of account unlocks to steal Pi from unsuspecting users. This person subsequently uses a wallet that distributes the stolen funds across multiple smaller wallets.

this wallet is being used by a Pi scammer. He steals pi when it unlocks and then splits it into hundreds of other wallets all stolen.

The flagged address highlights concerns about the security of digital assets and the vulnerability of users in decentralized systems. This news comes as Pi Network is increasing efforts to implement safety measures to protect its Pioneers.

Pi influencer Woody Lightyear has also been urging members to take extra precautions. Lightyear reiterated the Pi Core Team’s reminders about wallet safety, warning that phishing scams remain rampant. He stressed that many victims would still continue to fall prey to fake websites. He also shared a post pointing to another victim.

The Pi Core Team recently rolled out fresh security updates within the Pi app. Users were advised to trust only official communications and to verify information via the Pi Safety Center. The Safety Center provides detailed steps on protecting assets and has become the project’s frontline tool against scams.

A key upgrade in the Pi Wallet is the new PassKey option. Screenshots of the update show this feature next to account verification details. PassKeys use device-level authentication, such as biometrics or PIN codes. This method aims to prevent phishing attempts and account takeovers.

Given the community’s continued problems with the verification process, the move is especially important. The PassKey rollout is the team’s most recent attempt to stop phishing scams.

Pi Network Prepares for Second Migration

The security push comes as Pi Network prepares for a potential second migration of balances. As CoinGape previously reported, a Pi moderator hinted at a possible second migration of tokens.

Referral bonuses and unverified balances are two unresolved issues that have hindered the first migration for years. The moderator proposed that a new migration could motivate Pioneers and promote ongoing participation in the ecosystem.

Despite recent developments, the price of Pi has not changed much. Analysts expected its price to rise after Pi Network was listed on Onramp Money. However, the token’s price has stayed steady.

The Pi token has only increased by 1% in the last day, trading at about $0.3468. The altcoin’s low volatility is reflected in its narrow daily range, spanning $0.3432 to $0.3488.

The implementation of more robust safeguards demonstrates Pi Network’s ongoing efforts to preserve the token’s value and credibility.
