Disclosure: The views and opinions expressed here belong solely to the author and do not represent the views and opinions of crypto.news’ editorial. Although some believe that crypto PR and communications efforts should slow down when the markets are cooling off, it couldn’t be further from the truth. Sure, during crypto winters, product development teams huddle together to work on building their solutions—and that’s great—but these are also the ideal times for brand building. You might also like:Crypto tech projects shouldn’t settle for shallow marketing | Opinion Indeed, when the market is going through a crypto slowdown, the strategic brands are seizing the opportunity to strengthen credibility while everyone else is hibernating. And when the market inevitably heats up, this strategy will position such players ahead of the competition. Now, not all might agree with this point of view, arguing that pushing PR during a downturn is tone-deaf. Others might see slow market communications as unnecessary noise when product development should be the only priority. But visibility isn’t vanity—it’s strategy, and it’s easier to get noticed in calmer markets. Slower news, hungrier journalists As the movements in the crypto market slow down, so does everything else that relates to it, including newsrooms. In other words, journalists have more space (and patience) for stories that go beyond mere price action. There are no big stories of exploding digital assets. Bitcoin (BTC) is nowhere near reaching a new all-time high, and altcoins are taking the cue from the industry’s number one, sleeping it off themselves. Thus, when the hype and the noise in the crypto sphere die down, media outlets are on the lookout for stories worth telling. In such moments, true innovation and strong projects get their chance to shine and get real editorial interest, instead of getting lost among drama-driven headlines.  Small news can be perceived as newsworthy in a bear market Here’s a secret—during a bull run, not even a $10 million funding round might turn heads. It’s just too common when there’s money flowing everywhere across the board. To illustrate, an insider source at a crypto media powerhouse once said that their “funding news coverage threshold is a minimum of $10 million, with exceptions.” This might sound counterintuitive at first, but in a more bearish market sentiment, that same outlet might just be interested in a mere $5 million, or even a $1.4 million seed round, like the one recently raised by crypto payment hub Lyzi to expand its Tezos-based service. In other words, Lyzi has just told the world that it’s there and constantly working on building its product. Arguably, in a period of market pessimism, it would be one hell of a smart and well-timed PR move, and the best part—the likes of CoinDesk might pick it up. Pick up the mic when no one else is talking Providing expert commentary when the industry goes silent becomes even more valuable. Journalists still seek third-party sources and insights, and this is your chance to establish yourself as an authoritative figure in the sector, to whom journalists will come back when the bull market returns. This means that when it’s all quiet on the crypto front and a journalist comes knocking at your door, be ready. Hiring a good PR firm that will lead you, shape your story, and provide the stage is certainly the right move, but it’s up to you to step up with confidence and claim the spotlight.  Execution still matters With this in mind, don’t mindlessly drop news just for the sake of it. Be strategic about timing, like holidays, conferences, and other major events that might overshadow your news, as well as the tone—this isn’t the time to brag but display resilience and value.  Also, use the time of market bearishness to build your reputation and flesh out your digital footprint through earned media placements in trusted crypto outlets. Potential users, partners, and investors will look you up online, so make sure they have good things to read about you—that’s your PR working in the background. The real bottom line All things considered, crypto PR in times of market stagnation and bearish sentiment is not so much about creating hype as it is about demonstrating real substance. It’s about crafting a narrative that portrays you as the crypto player who can weather the blizzard, better positioning your brand. So, the next time you’re considering staying silent during a crypto downturn, think again. You might miss out on the best PR opportunities of the cycle, as at this time, you could get more attention than usual.  Don’t wait for the bull to charge—make your mark when the field is clear.

Pi Coin 的市值最近达到了 120 亿美元，但随着代币消失、迁移失败以及币安上市传闻四起，这是大事的开始，还是缓慢崩溃的开始？ 目录Pi Coin 在市场上的疯狂之旅一次大胆的实验还是下一个加密货币后果？Bybit’s CEO calls Pi Network a scamVanishing tokens, delayed migrations Pi Coin 在市场上的疯狂之旅 Pi Network 是一个雄心勃勃的智能手机挖矿项目，声称已经聚集了令人印象深刻的 6000 万用户，它完成了许多人曾经认为不可能的事情——全面启动主网并推出可交易代币。 2 月 20 日，当 Pi Coin (PI) 正式登陆交易所时，市场反应就像过山车一样。最初的价格约为 1.45 美元，不到一小时的时间内，该代币飙升超过 35%，达到 2.10 美元的峰值。 Pi Coin 的终身价格图表 | 来源：crypto.news 然而，股价上涨得很快，但兴奋感却开始消退，几个小时内，股价就暴跌至 1.01 美元，市值降至 70.2 亿美元。 Fast forward a few weeks, and Pi Coin has begun to show signs of stability, although not without its fair share of wild fluctuations. As of Mar. 12, the price sits at $1.71, representing a roughly 45% drop from its all-time high of $2.99 on Feb. 26.  Despite this, the token’s market cap has grown significantly, now standing at $12.26 billion. This surge has propelled Pi Coin to become the 11th largest crypto by market cap—an impressive feat for a project that only recently became tradable. But that’s not the only surprise. Over the past 24 hours, Pi Coin has defied the broader bearish market, posting a 20% gain—the highest among the top 100 cryptocurrencies. With trading volume exceeding $500 million, it has also become the most trending coin. Pi Network 的快速崛起让人联想到 SafeMoon 等过去的热门产品，后者通过积极的营销和推荐驱动的炒作获得了关注。但 Pi 的势头是否可持续，还是只是又一次昙花一现的热潮？ 让我们深入探索自 Pi Coin 主网启动和代币发行以来发生的事情，以及它如何攀升成为第 11 大最有价值的加密货币。 一次大胆的实验还是下一个加密货币后果？ Pi Network 诞生于一个简单而雄心勃勃的愿景——让任何拥有智能手机的人都可以进行加密挖掘。 该项目由斯坦福大学毕业生 Nicolas Kokkalis 博士和 Chengdiao Fan 博士于 2019 年创立，旨在消除传统采矿的障碍，因为传统采矿需要昂贵的硬件和高能耗。 Instead of relying on proof-of-work like Bitcoin (BTC), Pi Network adopted the Stellar Consensus Protocol, allowing users to mine coins with minimal energy use by simply tapping a button daily. This low-effort model fueled rapid adoption, attracting millions through a referral-based onboarding system. While this growth strategy supercharged user acquisition, it also drew criticism for resembling a multilevel marketing scheme, as users earned additional rewards for bringing in new participants. After years in development, Pi Network finally opened its mainnet on Feb. 20, marking the first time its native token, Pi Coin, could be transferred and traded on exchanges. 此次过渡之前经历了一个延长的测试阶段，该阶段从 2021 年 12 月封闭式主网启动开始，其中经过 KYC 验证的用户可以在该生态系统内进行互动，但无法进行外部交易。 转向开放主网是一个转折点，引发了一波交易所上市潮。OKX 成为第一个支持 Pi 的主要平台，于 2 月 12 日开通存款服务，并于 2 月 20 日推出现货交易。 其他交易所，包括 Bitget、Gate.io 和 MEXC 也迅速跟进，其中 Gate.io 成为主导交易中心，在过去 24 小时内处理了超过 2 亿美元的交易量。 尽管 Pi Coin 迅速崛起，但它仍然没有进入币安、Coinbase、Upbit 和 Kraken 等顶级交易所，从而无法进入最大的流动资金池。 更为猜测的是，有传言称，币安可能会在 3 月 14 日上市 Pi 币，这一日期恰逢 Pi 日和该项目六周年纪念日。 While no official confirmation has been made, the possibility has injected fresh excitement into the market, with many believing a Binance listing could be a game-changer for Pi’s liquidity and mainstream credibility. Bybit’s CEO calls Pi Network a scam The launch of Pi Coin may have been a major moment for its community, but it hasn’t come without controversy. Bybit 是最大的加密货币交易所之一，最近因遭受 15 亿美元黑客攻击而登上头条新闻，该公司明确表示不想与 Pi 有任何关系，首席执行官 Ben Zhou 甚至称其为骗局。 1. 这是 2023 年中国警方对 $Pi 发出的官方警告，警告公众这是一个针对老年人的骗局 https://t.co/LaGJqXSOXR，会泄露老年人的个人数据并导致其养老金损失。还有多份其他报告…… https://t.co/gkEu2wZwfo— Ben Zhou (@benbybit) 2025 年 2 月 20 日 据周介绍，Pi Network 的运营引发了警告，特别是在数据隐私和养老金损失方面，引发了人们对该项目真实性质的怀疑。 周先生还明确表示，Bybit 从未要求将 Pi 列入名单，任何声称不是这样的指控都是毫无根据的。 The backlash from the Pi community was immediate, but Zhou remained firm, doubling down in an interview with VnExpress on Mar. 9. He compared Pi to memecoins but argued that it was far more dangerous.  Memecoins, in his view, operate with full awareness of their speculative nature—people trade them knowing they are volatile and risky. Pi, on the other hand, allegedly misleads users with promises of easy money through a simple mining mechanism that lacks transparency. Zhou pointed out that, despite Pi Network’s claims of being backed by a team with Stanford connections, no one has ever publicly seen or heard from these figures in a way that would validate the project’s credibility. 他还要求 Pi 的领导层站出来提供透明度，而不是对他和 Bybit 发起毫无根据的攻击。 除了这些担忧之外，周还表示，Pi Network 的运作方式类似于庞氏骗局，早期采用者受益，而新参与者却受损。 他甚至对该项目的长期可行性表示怀疑，强调该项目存在多年却未能兑现关键承诺。 尽管 Pi Network 的模型宣传自己是实现挖矿民主化的一种方式，但周认为，该项目尚未解释其生态系统如何产生可持续价值，导致许多用户尽管经过多年挖矿却一无所获。 Pi Network 对此发表了自己的声明，试图澄清事实。该团队与中国警方的警告保持距离，声称其目标是冒用 Pi 名称的不良行为者，而不是 Pi Network 本身。 Recently, a CEO publicly commented on Pi Network in response to a post made by an unaffiliated individual on social media. While we understand that online discussions can sometimes lead to misunderstandings, we want to take a moment to clarify a few points and ensure accurate…— Pi Network (@PiCoreTeam) February 21, 2025 According to the Pi team, the warning had nothing to do with the core team but rather with bad actors falsely using the Pi name to carry out unauthorized activities. 他们还否认了任何不当行为的指控，并强调该项目在过去六年里一直有条不紊地运作，建立了一个合法的生态系统。 他们继续否认与攻击周的社交媒体账户有任何关联，并强调 Pi Network 及其团队从未对 Bybit 或其领导层发表过评论。 代币消失，迁移延迟 随着人们对安全和迁移问题的担忧日益加剧，该项目受到了严格审查，围绕 Pi Coin 主网启动的兴奋感很快就被沮丧所取代。 “Pi 是个骗局！！！！”一名用户在解锁后看到自己的 Pi 余额消失，在社交媒体上怒不可遏。随着越来越多的 Pioneers（Pi 的忠实用户）看到自己多年积累的代币消失而无法追索，这种沮丧感正在加深。 https://twitter.com/0xweb3bond/status/1898409102658671020 另一位用户写道：“一件非常可悲的事情发生在天真的先驱者身上。他们的 Pi 一解锁，就直接转移到了骗子的地址。” https://twitter.com/blesyndbest1/status/1897179279915671811 许多受害者过去曾在不知情的情况下与假冒的 Pi 相关网站进行过互动，而现在他们的代币终于可以转让了，那些旧错误又回来困扰着他们。 一位用户指出：“现在的诈骗钓鱼网站制作得非常好”，并警告说，当前的设置让攻击者很容易模仿 Pi 浏览器。“即使是经验丰富的人也可能会被这些虚假网站所欺骗。” Pi 诈骗钓鱼网站现在制作得非常好。即使是经验丰富的人也可能被这些虚假网站所欺骗。@PiCoreTeam 你需要尽快开放 Pi，这样人们才能开发单独的钱包应用程序。The Pi Browser interface is easily copied and too vulnerable. #pinetwork pic.twitter.com/R55Y7efJlt— pinetworkmembers Ï€ (@pinetworkmember) January 26, 2025 但令人沮丧的不仅仅是安全问题。许多先驱者还面临着完全不同的麻烦：在 3 月 14 日 08:00 UTC 截止日期之前将他们的 Pi 迁移到主网的持续努力。 “我已经完成了主网检查表。我已经等了好几个星期才完成迁移，”一位先锋发泄道。“我已经尝试了一切方法来解决这个问题。Pi 什么也没做。这需要修复，或者截止日期需要延长。” 我已经完成了主网检查清单。我已经等了好几个星期才迁移到主网。我已经尝试了一切方法来解决这个问题。Pi 网络没有采取任何措施来帮助解决这个问题。这是一个非常常见的问题。Pi 没有采取任何措施来帮助解决这个问题和其他问题……— Jaro Giesbrecht (@JaroGiesbrecht) 2025 年 3 月 10 日 一位区块链开发商甚至直接点名 Pi Network，称他们的迁移过程“充满欺诈和欺骗”，并敦促监管机构进行调查。 https://twitter.com/Manda_Coin/status/1896106701096464695 他指出，虽然像 Solana (SOL) 和 Polygon (POL) 这样的区块链每秒可以处理数千笔交易，但 Pi 用户已经等待了数月——有些甚至数年——才转移他们的代币。 “你看不到他们的基础设施。你看不到队列是如何工作的。没有去中心化。只有核心团队控制着一切，”他表示。 除了技术问题之外，数百万用户已经交出了敏感的个人数据，包括护照和政府身份证，以通过 KYC——但他们却被迫无限期地等待才能使用他们的资金。 这位区块链开发者指出：“他们的应用程序通过广告赚钱。Pi Network 是不是只是在利用我们牟利，同时假装这是一个真正的区块链项目？” Adding to the frustration is Pi Network’s handling of the situation. The core team remains largely silent, issuing occasional statements but offering little in the way of direct solutions. While Pi’s defenders insist that these delays are part of a structured rollout, critics argue that after six years of development, these excuses are wearing thin. 距离迁移截止日期仅剩几天，情况已达到白热化。一些人要求立即修复，而另一些人则呼吁采取监管行动，并向美国证券交易委员会和联邦贸易委员会等机构举报 Pi Network。 还有一些人，尽管问题越来越多，但仍然相信该项目的愿景，并希望核心团队能够扭转局面。 但是，如果 Pi Network 不迅速采取行动解决这些问题——如果用户不断丢失他们的代币、迁移问题持续存在、信任继续受到侵蚀——那么不久之后，即使是最忠实的支持者也会开始离开。

Stocks rose on Wednesday as Trump softened his rhetoric against China, announcing that he would reduce the 145% tariff on all goods. Trump’s latest moderating statements have brought relief to traders. On Wednesday, April 23, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 1.47% at 39,774. Still, the index fell from the daily highs above 40,000 points. At the same time, the S&P 500 was up 2.14%, trading at 5,400.74, while the tech-focused Nasdaq was up 3.09%, at 16,803.75. Trump moderates rhetoric on China, the FED Major stock indices reacted positively to Donald Trump’s latest comments on trade. Specifically, Trump said that historically high tariffs on China would go down “substantially,” from their current level of 145%. The president also said that he would be “very nice” to China, and wouldn’t play hardball with the Chinese president Xi Jinping. “It will come down substantially, but it won’t be zero,” Trump said. Trump’s moderating statements also extended to Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. On Tuesday, Trump stated that he has no intention of firing the Fed chair, whose term will end in 2026. This brought back some confidence in the U.S. dollar, and the dollar index was up 0.73% on Wednesday, reaching 99.66, recovering from its recent multi-year lows. The latest comments were part of an ongoing de-escalation from the White House to reassure the markets. Both Trump and his administration claimed that trade talks with major partners are going well. This is key, as deals face the looming 90-day deadline, at the time the pause on the highest rates would end.

披露：此处表达的观点和意见仅属于作者，不代表 crypto.news 编辑的观点和意见。 过去十年，创作者经济呈现爆炸式增长，但许多内容创作者、作家、教育工作者和艺术家面临着一个根本的困境：货币化和内容分发往往偏向于中心化的平台，这些平台施加了严格的规则、费用和算法，限制了创作者的自主权和收入。 你可能还喜欢：创作者经济 2.0：AI 和 Web3 定义数字化成功 | 观点 虽然 web3 解决方案承诺提供更大的自由，但迄今为止，它们的用户体验往往较差，并且需要创作者浏览复杂的入门流程和应用程序。然而，基于区块链的自主代理正在成为创作者的新选择，无缝处理任务，激发新的创作可能性，并最终让创作者重新掌控自己的工作和收入。 创作者助理 自主代理通过自动执行定价、许可和收益分成等任务来简化内容分发和货币化，让创作者可以专注于自己的创作。例如，这些代理可以根据市场需求优化定价策略或透明地管理收益分成。与传统的 AI 工具不同，去中心化代理可以在链上无信任地运行，从而确保透明度、降低成本并消除第三方中介。 通过利用可编程规则和链上验证，自主代理还允许创作者探索新的收入来源（例如微许可或数字资产的部分所有权），让他们能够控制自己的知识产权，同时利用创新的货币化模式。许可和版权问题等道德问题可以通过嵌入在内容元数据中的可编程许可权来解决。 艺术策展人代理 在数字艺术领域，自主代理已经改变了内容的策划、交易和展示方式。这些代理可以通过链上验证，根据预定义的规则自主获取和策划数字内容。通过在去中心化基础设施上运作，艺术策展代理可以降低通常与中心化平台相关的欺诈或操纵等风险。 可编程许可嵌入数字艺术元数据中，确保所有交易均遵守创作者的条款。这消除了版权方面的歧义，并保证创作者获得公平的报酬，即使他们的作品在不同平台上流通。 智能创意工具 开发人员正在将自主代理集成到创意应用程序中，为创作者提供强大的工具来增强他们的工作。这些代理可以充当共同创作者或智能管理者，以新的方式生成、优化和管理内容。例如，嵌入在视频编辑平台中的代理可能会根据观众参与度数据建议编辑或生成元数据以提高可发现性。 使用无需信任的链上计算意味着创作者不再依赖中心化 API 或平台，因为这可能会损害他们的数据或艺术构想。与许多当前依赖 OpenAI 等中心化 API 的 AI 代理不同，这些去中心化代理可持续且透明地运行，避免了与中心化控制相关的漏洞。 创作者从哪里开始 对于刚开始探索去中心化平台的创作者来说，确认他们使用的平台为其数据提供可靠且可持续的存储至关重要。许多传统的 NFT 将艺术品和元数据分开存储，如果中心化存储提供商停止服务或停止支付存储费用，这可能会产生问题。这是未来麻烦的根源。 像 Bazar 这样的去中心化平台采用了不同的方法，将所有内容（您的作品、其权利和所有权）捆绑在一起，在 Arweave 上进行一次永久交易，称为原子资产。可以将其想象成一件独立的数字艺术品，无论它在网上传播到哪里，都有自己的规则手册。这一点尤其重要，因为人工智能越来越多地与创意作品互动，因此嵌入可编程许可权的能力至关重要。为此，Bazar 正在试验一种称为通用数据许可证的数据许可框架，该框架使艺术家能够将明确的使用规则直接编码到他们的作品中。 当艺术作品包含这些关于如何使用的明确规则时，自主代理可以充当数字版权管理者，确保作品出现的任何地方都遵守条款。这些规则为用户和人工智能代理提供了透明度，确保始终遵守使用条款。这就像拥有一位不知疲倦的倡导者，确保创作者能够控制其作品的使用方式，即使他们的艺术作品在数字领域不断发展并焕发新生，也能获得荣誉和补偿。 自主代理的未来 未来十年，自主代理将在创作者经济中扮演越来越重要的角色。通过分散内容货币化和分发，这些代理减少了对传统平台的依赖，为创作者提供了更多工具和资源，以在简化业务运营的同时保持对其作品的控制。它们还将帮助确定新的货币化策略，智能地管理分发，并处理数据驱动的财务决策。 自主代理为创作者提供了一个机会，让他们重新掌控自己的作品，并以以前受中心化系统限制的方式进行创新。随着这些工具的发展，它们将有助于建立一个以透明度、赋权和可持续增长为优先的创作者经济。 阅读更多：人工智能是 Web3 时代内容创作者遇到的最好的事情 | 观点 尼克朱利亚诺 尼克朱利亚诺是 Bazar Marketplace 的首席开发人员。
