how can I sell pi coins after successfully completing KYCDOT TECH
Pi coins is not launched yet in any exchange 💱 this means it's not swappable, the current pi displaying on coin market cap is the iou version of pi. And you can learn all about that on my previous post.
RIGHT NOW THE ONLY WAY you can sell pi coins is through verified pi merchants. A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges and crypto whales. Looking forward to hold massive quantities of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale or ico offerings, the only way to get my coins is from buying from miners. So a merchant facilitates the transactions between the miners and these exchanges holding pi.
I and my friends has sold more than 6000 pi coins successfully with this method. I will be happy to share the contact of my personal pi merchant. The one i trade with, if you have your own merchant you can trade with them. For those who are new.
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram.

In India, financial inclusion remains a critical challenge, with a significant portion of the population still unbanked. Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) have emerged as key players in bridging this gap by providing financial services to those often overlooked by traditional banking institutions. This article delves into how NBFCs are fostering financial inclusion and empowering the unbanked.
how can i use my minded pi coins I need some funds.DOT TECH
If you are interested in selling your pi coins, i have a verified pi merchant, who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges looking forward to hold till mainnet launch.
Because the core team has announced that pi network will not be doing any pre-sale. The only way exchanges like huobi, bitmart and hotbit can get pi is by buying from miners.
Now a merchant stands in between these exchanges and the miners. As a link to make transactions smooth. Because right now in the enclosed mainnet you can't sell pi coins your self. You need the help of a merchant,

what is the future of Pi Network currency.DOT TECH
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.
What price will pi network be listed on exchangesDOT TECH
The rate at which pi will be listed is practically unknown. But due to speculations surrounding it the predicted rate is tends to be from 30$ — 50$.
So if you are interested in selling your pi network coins at a high rate tho. Or you can't wait till the mainnet launch in 2026. You can easily trade your pi coins with a merchant.
A merchant is someone who buys pi coins from miners and resell them to Investors looking forward to hold massive quantities till mainnet launch.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

Capacity to capture share of continued demand recovery in European markets
• The economic recovery in Europe is broadening
driven by quantitative easing, the weak Euro, low oil
prices, improving confidence and credit conditions:
– Strengthening wage growth and rising employment is
feeding through into consumer spending
– Credit conditions are also beginning to improve which
should help business investment pickup
• Positive indicators:
– EU28 manufacturing output has reached its highest level
since 2008, and we saw a 12 month high in the Eurozone
Manufacturing PMI in June
– New car registrations in the EU28 countries rose to 13.4
million seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR) in the Q2
2015, the highest level for four years
– We also saw construction output grow last year (up 2.8
per cent y-o-y), and we are now beginning to see further
growth after a relatively weak start to the year
• We forecast ASC growth in Europe for 2015 of
between +1.5 and 2.5%

• The 2007 pre-crisis peak of ~200Mt in EU28
ASC is misleading as it was inflated by an
unsustainable bubble/ consumption boom.
Instead, average ASC 1995-2005 provides
a more realistic baseline for comparison.
• Italy, Spain and other now-vulnerable
Eurozone economies saw ASC grow rapidly
after the creation of the euro in 1999. it then
jumped even higher in 2006/7, fed by an
unsustainable consumption boom.
• Germany and EU countries in Eastern
Europe experience particularly strong
demand in 2006/7 on top of more sustainable
demand growth, with ASC post-crisis
recovering to this underlying trend.
• The UK, France, Nordics and Benelux
countries did not see particularly strong
demand growth or much of a bubble pre-
crisis, however they were still hit by the crisis
and their ASC is still well below pre-crisis
levels.
12. • We are committed to further enhancing our position in Europe
• We continue to invest in people and hire talent – we estimate that we will
hire about 1200 people in Europe over each of the next three years.
• Ongoing investment programme focussed on:
– Further strengthening our position in high, value-added product sectors
– Significant investment focus on sustainability and environmental improvements
• A commitment to innovation; Europe is the centre of our global R&D

20. • Current ETS system as it is proposed will not reduce global emissions
from steel, but merely shift steel production to non EU regions
– Needs to be a realistic EU emissions benchmark
– EU proposal based on best available technology is wholly unrealistic
– Incentives required to drive innovation across the steel industry that encourage
steelmakers reduce emissions
• We need a global approach to CO2 reductions; without a global approach
there is a serious risk of the European steel industry becoming
uncompetitive and unsustainable
• We believe it is also important to take into account life-cycle analysis in
the application of any tax
• Our hope is that realistic carbon emissions targets emerge from COP 21
that ensure a fair and level playing field
