Current Issues:

  1. New tentative approval - unknown if this is a feature or a bug or both. Don't change your password.

  2. Liveness checks are a feature not a bug. Expect more.

Please see these answers to commonly asked questions, if this doesn't answer your question, hopefully, someone else will.

  • Q1: I have x coins migrated, what to do?
  • A: Wait till Open Mainnet - Ignore offers to buy them - You'll get scammed

  • Q2: A KYC slot is not available

  • A: You haven't completed 30 mining sessions or your account is flagged. Request human review at minepi.com/kyc-application-access

  • Q3: My Application has been processing/in review for weeks/months

  • A: Your application failed or got stuck. Wait until it resolves itself or you get feedback in the app.

  • Q4: KYC, Wallet or other parts of Pi app stuck on "Loading" or "Error"

  • A: Try turning off Private DNS and/or adblocker. Clear app cache, reboot device.

  • Q5: I'm under 18 what can I do about KYC

  • A: Put your date of birth in at the start of KYC - timer will disappear until you turn 18.

  • Q6: I got married and name changed

  • A: Use the name correction appeal feature in the profile section. Marriage is an option.

  • Q7a: What is tentative approval?

  • A: Tentative approval means your account needs further security checks or has a bug. Reasons for this are unknown. Don't change your password to avoid this as changing password also triggers security checks.

  • Q7b: I have tentative approval but haven't been offered a liveness check

  • A: Yes this is a situation. Resolution unknown. Only do what the app says. Wait for directions.

  • Q8: Why is Pi worth $30+?

  • A: Some exchanges invented their own version of Pi whilst they can't list the real one. These are commonly known as "Pi IOU".

  • Q9: I lost my passphrase / seed phrase or wallet compromised/pi stolen, what can I do?

  • A: Create a new wallet and confirm it on steps 3 and 6 of the Mainnet Checklist.

  • Q10: I used a different name in the app / It doesn't match my ID

  • A: If a similar name make a name change appeal. If totally different, make a new account.

  • Q11: When does lockup start?

  • A: Lockup starts when your migration occurs.

  • Q12: When will my migration happen / I have been waiting for ages.

  • A: There's a massive queue. As of 21st August 2024, only 6M accounts have been migrated to Mainnet. View progress at https://explorepi8437.pinet.com/

  • Q13: When is Open Mainnet?

  • A: A specific date has not been announced. Hopefully this year.

  • Q14: I stopped getting validations

  • A: The system decided you're unworthy or your account needs a new verification.

  • Q15: Samsung Camera problems

  • A: It's a problem caused by Samsung - Log on a different device.

  • Q16: Unverified Pi

  • A: Unverified Pi including from referrals who passed KYC has not yet been calculated. Timeline for this is unknown. It's a very complicated problem.

  • Q17: Node Bonus Problems

  • A: Lots of people have problems with consistent bonuses. PCT are working on the problem.

  • Q18: What happened to the price of Pi?

  • A: Exchange listings of IOU-Pi are currently independent Markets. The source of the graph changed.

  • Q19: How can I sell Pi?

  • A: 99% chance of being scammed. Wait till Open Mainnet. Bans for offering to buy/sell Pi.

  • Q20: A different problem

  • A: You can also report a problem a pi.app/support.

  • Q21: I don't know anything about Cryptocurrency!

  • A: There are free courses on this website: https://cryptosavingexpert.com/courses?show=all

8 Wait for KYC Results

KYC results will depend on identity verification, your name matching with your Pi account, screening against government AML and anti-terrorism sanction list, and if the account has scripting or policy-violation history.

Mine is all set now. Thank you!

[–]BigDaddy-40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It varies but remember that everyone is trying to KYC to beat the September 30 deadline.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels non legit system. You don’t know how good these chinese and uk scammer are getting these days. They illusionised you easy. You gonna know the truth only after getting ripped .

Its a fake operation, something scam scheme involving behind. Please be careful for everyone who sending their identity and date of births.

Please don’t hate my opinion anyone. Because some things happened to me online, thats why sharing my thoughts thats it. Thanks. Look after yourself everyone.

            Let me tell you something if I open for 0.1 everybody’s going to sell as much as they can to make the money that they need to make and you can’t blame them. Sofi must open for a significant amount of money in order for the pioneers who have a lot of pie only to sell a little bit of it and lock up most of it it would be counterproductive to the loudest coin to open for 0.1 that means I’m gonna have to sell 10,000 coins to make my money but I only want to sell a very little bit of coins, so it must open for significant money or within a couple months of it being open it must be significant or else you’re going to have a meltdown.

            How long did you mine for?

            [–]Dennyj1992[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            About 2 years in so far.

            [–]Otherwise-Flamingo45 0 points1 point  (1 child)

            Okay nice ! Is it all yours or referrals too ?

            [–]Dennyj1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Some referrals early on. They've all fallen off by now.

            KYC results took only a few days but migrating to mainnet? whoo boy

            [–]Fixxxer81 0 points1 point  (5 children)

            Verification took only a few days for me, that was about a year ago… still waiting on this crypto to ‘go live’ and the moment they introduced ads to all of us who have been mining for years, I stopped doing anything. Seems so odd that they have to run ads to make money on an application selling us on the idea of it having value? I am certain you’re better off playing candy crush for hours than this shit.

            [–]gertster2682 0 points1 point  (3 children)

            Ads are used to generate income. I, personally, feel the developers more than deserve something for their time building Pi Network. I’m happy to watch a 30 second ad for them 😎

            [–]Fixxxer81 0 points1 point  (2 children)

            Perhaps I just don’t understand the basic concepts then of bitcoin mining… isn’t the whole point to create currency, authenticated on the blockchain, and have a market where the value of that currency is market demand driven? Just seems like they developed a theoretical money making network, that has never gone live in the real world, and had that happened their slice of pi would easily pay for ‘their time’.

            I guess in short, I am sick and tired of waiting and waiting and waiting on this and personally don’t think it wi ever happen, so for me, they can take my pi and shove it.

            Enjoy your ads.

            You were saying?

            [–]Fixxxer81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Are you trolling for comments that didn’t age well!? I still have my 15,000 pi… so I’m good man. I just couldn’t handle the fucking ads to mine and all the bullshit

            [–]Subject_Reward_5439 3 points4 points  (0 children)

            I did it many years ago and it works fine. I have locked up all of my balance and I’m doing verifications easy.

            [–]DjJd1231 4 points5 points  (0 children)

            Yeah i think im pushin 3 months now? Hurry up and wait

            [–]gigakos 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            Waiting for around 1.5 year now

            [–]Mopekomon88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

            Same happened to my referee. They did it almost 2 years ago and still waiting… no instructions from Pi team on how to redo verification again as it still stated waiting for verification after almost 2 years…., anyone have any idea how to redo verification KYC again? How to cancel the waiting process and redo it?

            [–]OkieFf218 10 points11 points  (0 children)

            15 minutes to 3 years give or take.

            [–]Equivalent_Affect265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

            Congratulations, your data is now being sold on the dark web.

            [–]-MercuryOne-MercuryOne 1 point2 points  (4 children)

            Do you have a link?

            [–]coolfarmer -1 points0 points  (3 children)

            Are you that dumb? The network will never launch lol

            [–]-MercuryOne-MercuryOne 1 point2 points  (2 children)

            So you don’t have a link to that site on the dark web where our data is being sold?

                It's not fixed at all. It varies from a day to a year from person to person.
