Indeed, the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) views itself as the leading cryptocurrency state regulator in the country, however, because millions of investors have lost hundreds of billions in the value of their cryptocurrency investments due to rampant fraud, including market manipulation, hacking, and opaque business practices, crypto listings and operations is somewhat not fluid (free)
“The failure to properly regulate cryptocurrency poses a real threat to low-income communities and communities of color in this state,” said State Senator Kristen Gonzalez.
Coming back to Pi. Now, while many have tagged Pi as a scam project, some have abandoned mining it due to the strenuous KYC verification process, delays in moving to the mainnet wallet, and other issues, it is still held by millions of people worldwide.
In this guide, you will learn how to sell part of your Pi coins as an American online for Cash, for USDT, or on Binance, Coinbase, and other crypto platforms.
Let’s dive in to see the possibilities of selling Pi online for money in New York, USA.
But first, let’s check out some important questions
Pi to USDT Exchange Rate on Crypto Websites in the USA
The price of 1 Pi Network to 1 US Dollar (PI to USD) is dynamic over time. The speculated rate of $44.5+, as was seen on many platforms, is false. You can always check the current rate on Coingecko here.
Can you Sell Pi Coins on Binance or Coinbase.com from New York?
No, you cannot directly sell or exchange Pi coins Coinbase.com or Binance P2P marketplaces because they are not officially listed for trading.
Also, they do not have USDT to US Dollar currency trading pairs for you to initiate any swap. Therefore, the answer is no.
But the good news? There is a way out to sell your PI for USDT. More on this soon.
How Selling Pi for Cash works in New York, USA
The steps are simple:
Step 1: Set up a USDT wallet on Coinbase
You need a USDT wallet to receive USDT when you swap your Pi. I recommend using Coinbase.com, as the withdrawal fees on Crypto.com are relatively high.
You can log in to Coinbase if you have an account already, or create one and do KYC. Crypto.com is an option, should you not be like Coinbase (but I highly recommend Coinbase).
Step 2: Sell USDT for fiat currency (USD)
Once the USDT is sent to your Coinbase wallet, simply sell or swap it for fiat USD currency.
This step is necessary because you cannot withdraw USDT directly to your bank account.
Step 3: Withdraw fiat to your bank account
Withdraw the fiat (US dollars) as cash directly to your bank account. That’s all!
Note: Avoid using the Revolut app, as it is not crypto-friendly.
In summary:
USDT ➝ USD fiat ➝ Bank account (using Coinbase)
Rules to Sell Pi Coins Online without Being Scammed
1. Do not provide your Passphrase.
Any Pi trading platform or vendor that instructs you to drop your PI passphrase is a scam. Do not transact there, otherwise, you will lose your Pi wallet to them.
2. Do not agree to verify your Pi wallet
Also, any Pi trading platform or vendor that instructs you to first of all verify your PI wallet is a scam. Do not transact there, otherwise, you will lose your Pi wallet/coins to them.
3. Do not trade on any disputed Pi P2P platform/App
Any Pi trading platform or vendor that instructs you to download a strange p2p Pi app is a scam. Do not transact there, otherwise, you will lose your Pi wallet to them.
4. Trade with visibly recognized platforms/vendors
Trade with visibly and recognized PI platforms and vendors.
For us (at fnfSwap Freelance), we never, and will never ask you for “Pi Passphrase” – I mean, what would we be doing with that when it is NEVER a requirement to selling Pi for cash anywhere 🤷♂️
Let’s now see the requirements for selling Pi safely.
When it comes to selling Pi in the USA/America
Even before Pi launched in February 2025, we (at fnfSwap Freelance) have been serving Pi for Cash sellers. And from the USA, we’ve done that for many clients.
We’ve served “Tony”, who is now a regular client.

Requirements to Sell Pi Coins Online
To sell Pi for cash, 2 major things are involved.
1. Your Pi Has to be Migrated, and in the Available Balance
Kindly make sure that your Pi is fully migrated to the wallet, then proceed to confirm that it is not locked, and lastly, your Pi is in the available mainnet balance (as shown below).
If your Pi balance is as depicted above, then you qualify to sell Pi for cash.
2. You have a USDT Wallet Account to Receive USDT
For a lot of our clients in the USA and tier 1 countries, the crypto account website they use is either Coinbase or Crypto.com
But I recommend Coinbase because the fees are higher on Crypto.com
Having opened your account, go ahead and verify to lift any form of limitations.
Very quickly, let me show you how to copy your USDT wallet address on Crypto.com
How to Copy USDT Wallet Address on Coinbase.com
Step 1. Log in to your Coinbase.com wallet and go to Transfer.
Step 2. Click on “Transfer”, and select “receive crypto from another wallet“
Step 3. Select “USDT-Tether” | Network – select ERC20
With USDT ERC20, the USDT will drop within 10 minutes.
Step 4. Copy the address and paste it for us.

How To Sell Pi Coin in New York City Safely in Minutes 🇺🇸
Since you cannot sell Pi directly on these crypto platforms, fnfSwap Freelance is the platform/vendor that will swap your Pi for USDT sent to your USDT wallet Address in the United States of America
Let’s check out the transaction processes with some of our American 🇺🇸 clients, “Ms Barnett “.
You have options 😊 | You can follow the steps as outlined on this page, or watch the video 📹 attached below.
1. Choose USDT Payment Platform
The first step is selecting a comfortable crypto USDT exchange/website you want to use for the Pi for USDT Payment.
For most Americans, Coinbase is a popular platform over there. And that is the platform all our US clients are using.
2. Check Selling Eligibility.
The next step is to see if you qualify to sell. This is done by checking if the Pi coin is in your mainnet available balance, or the Testnet wallet balance.
From the image below, your Pi wallet has to be show “available balance” before you can transact.
Note: we only take mainnet wallet Pi wallet balance coins. We do not take TESTNET PI coins, or LOCKED PI COINS/ACCOUNTS.
3. Agree and Accept the Pi Exchange Rate
The next step is getting the prevailing Pi for the USDT exchange rate. It is important to note that the exchange rates are ever-changing. And not constant.
For Ms Barnett, she asked us the Pi to USDT exchange rate before now. Below shows when he came back to confirm the updated rate, and thus endorsing it.
Note: the current rate of Pi for USDT will always be related to you at the point of transaction – [since the exchange black market rate is ever changing].
Let’s move on.
4. Transfer the Pi Tokens with Receipts
Having accepted the related Pi for the USDT exchange rate, and eligibility cheeked, you will be provided with our dedicated Pi wallet address for you to make the transaction.
Below shows when Ms Barnett first sent us 1,000 Pi network tokens.
Once you do this, we will confirm it within 2 minutes, and be ready to send you USDT.
4. Provide Your Crypto Wallet Address
Please copy and paste your Crypto.com USDT wallet address for us. I showed you how to do that above. Check it out above (if you’ve forgotten 🙂).
For Ms Barnett, she provided her Coinbase USDT wallet address for the payment.
5. Confirm & Leave a review
Below shows when she confirmed the USDT for Pi payment.
With great satisfaction, she opted to sell more 2,000 pi coins.
Below shows when we sent her the 2,000 Pi worth in USDT to her Coinbase account. And of course, her confirmation of the payment.
Ms Barnett has gone on to sell more than 3,000 Pi coins to us. This is something I don’t want to bore you with 👍
Just as Ms Barnett, Tyler, and Tony from the USA, we have Frek from Australia, who has also transacted with us multiple times.
Let’s see below.
Below, when Frek came to us/exchange rate agreed.
[1st transaction & confirmation]

That is all. No one gets scammed at fnfswap Digital services as we’ve served clients in: Australia | Singapore | Turkey | South Africa | Kenya | Ghana | India | Greece, and more.

We can’t say if the Pi coin is legit or fake now because it is too early to tell. However, if you did not invest anything in it and can now sell it for cash, then it may not represent a scam, right?
How is the Pi Network unique?
Pi’s blockchain uses an adaptation of the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP)—an instantiation of the Federated Byzantine Agreement—to validate transactions. Compared to traditional blockchain mining methods like Proof-of-Work or -Stake, Pi’s protocol uniquely provides decentralized control, low latency, flexible trust, and asymptotic security at a fraction of the environmental cost.
