The post Pi Network News: Pi Coin Price Rallies 15% Amid ISO 20022 Buzz appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The Pi Network community is turning optimistic again after months of decline. Pi Coin (PI) has staged a strong comeback, jumping over 15% in the past 24 hours and gaining more than 30% weekly, as traders eye a breakout above $0.28. The surge follows Pi’s official inclusion in the ISO 20022 group, aligning it with global payment leaders like Ripple (XRP) and Stellar (XLM), a move that could redefine its place in the financial ecosystem.

Why ISO 20022 Matters?

ISO 20022 is reshaping how global payments work. It introduces a unified messaging standard that lets banks and payment providers exchange rich, structured data, such as sender, receiver, and payment details- securely across borders.

The shift is already underway, with SWIFT and the US Federal Reserve’s Fedwire moving toward full ISO 20022 adoption by November 22, 2025. After this date, most global financial institutions will use the standard, setting a new benchmark for speed, transparency, and efficiency in international payments.

Pi Coin Price Gains Momentum

Pi Coin’s price recovery marks a strong return from its $0.19 low earlier this month, finding support near $0.20 and surging to a three-week high above $0.25 before stabilizing around $0.61. Analysts note that the token’s rebound signals growing confidence among traders.

Market analyst Devid James highlighted that while the overall trend looks bullish, $0.36 remains a key resistance. A rejection there could cause a pullback to $0.23, but sustained momentum may push Pi toward a new growth phase.

Joining the ISO 20022 framework puts Pi Network alongside compliant assets like XRP and XLM, opening doors to banking integration and cross-border payment compatibility. This move could make Pi more accessible to institutional players and help it gain recognition within traditional finance, improving its credibility and adoption potential.

What’s Next for Pi Coin?

Pi Network’s growth continues beyond price action. Over 3.36 million users have now completed KYC verification, boosting trust and participation in the ecosystem. Meanwhile, the upcoming Protocol 23 upgrade, set for Q4 2025, aims to enhance scalability and transaction speed, preparing the network for mainstream adoption.

With rising momentum, banking alignment, and a growing user base, Pi Coin is showing signs of real progress. If bulls manage to break past $0.28, Pi could enter a stronger uptrend, marking a major leap toward becoming a key player in crypto-integrated global finance.

The post HBAR ETF Goes Live on Nasdaq During U.S Government Shutdown appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The Hedera (HBAR) community is celebrating a major milestone as the network’s first U.S. exchange-traded fund (ETF) is set to start trading on Nasdaq this Tuesday, October 28, 2025. 

The Canary Capital HBAR ETF, trading under the ticker HBR, will give investors direct spot exposure to HBAR, making it easier for institutions and advisors to invest in the network without managing crypto wallets.

A Breakthrough for Institutional Investors

Crypto Analyst Mark Chadwickx confirmed the listing, calling it a major step for institutional access to HBAR through Nasdaq. Many saw this as a huge credibility boost for the network.

Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg confirmed the ETF launch after the company completed all required filings, using the SEC’s shutdown playbook, which allows new ETFs to go live 20 days after filing, even when regulators are short-staffed. 

The new HBAR ETF will hold actual HBAR tokens in custody with BitGo and Coinbase Custody, while CoinDesk Indices will provide official price tracking.

Alongside the HBAR product, Canary is also rolling out a Litecoin (LTC) ETF, both debuting in what’s turning out to be a busy week for new crypto fund listings in the U.S.

Crypto Community Reacts

The Hedera ETF launch stirred quite a buzz on social media. X users praised Hedera’s quiet strength, noting that while Bitcoin and Ethereum dominate headlines, Hedera has been steadily handling over 10,000 transactions per second for giants like IBM and Google. They described the ETF launch as “institutional stealth mode activated,” hinting at growing big-money interest behind the scenes.

However, not everyone was convinced. Another User, LuckyToken7777, cautioned that listing and full SEC approval are different matters, warning traders to be careful of potential hype-driven price moves. 

Faster ETF Approvals Under New SEC Rules

However, the launch timing isn’t random. In mid-September, the SEC approved new listing standards that make it easier for exchanges to list spot commodity ETFs like HBAR, Solana, and Litecoin. These new standards cut down the long review times that previously delayed crypto ETF launches.

Despite the ongoing U.S. government shutdown, Elenor Terrett explained that these ETFs can still go live because the 8-A filings, which register ETF shares for trading, have been certified, and the S-1 filings include language allowing them to take effect automatically after 20 days without SEC intervention. 

Having said that, this rule change has opened the door for multiple ETF debuts, including Bitwise’s Solana ETF on the NYSE and Canary’s listings on Nasdaq, all happening within days.

For Hedera, this marks a major turning point. The ETF not only increases market visibility but also gives traditional investors access to HBAR through regulated brokerage accounts, a big leap for a blockchain known for its enterprise and institutional partnerships with companies like IBM and Google.
