Honestly, a lot of my friends started mining pi cryptocurrency on their phones because it seemed super easy and maybe the next big thing. I gotta say, so far, I haven’t met anyone who’s actually cashed it out for real money. As of now, pi isn't openly tradeable on major exchanges like Coinbase or Binance. It's kinda like collecting digital points on your phone.

A lot of the talk you hear about "massive profits" or turning $100 into $200 every month with pi is totally not how pi actually works. From what I've seen, people are just holding on to their pi coins waiting for the network to finally launch fully and maybe get listed somewhere official so they can sell it. Right now, you can't just go and buy stuff with pi or withdraw it for cash in most places.

I keep hearing people say it's going to be big once it actually launches, but honestly, nobody really knows if that will happen or when. I really hope it works out, but at the moment, it’s more interesting as an experiment than something I’d bet my allowance on. So if you're thinking about investing real money into pi cryptocurrency, I'd be super careful and not expect any quick paydays. Stay safe and don’t believe hype posts!
