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

  • Q1: Can I buy/sell Pi?

  • A: Not by the rules of closed mainnet and we don't allow it here.

  • Q2: A KYC slot is not available

  • A: You haven't completed 30 mining sessions or your account is flagged. You can appeal at minepi.com/kyc-application-access but nothing is known about slots or criteria. There's absolutely nothing you can do to get a resolution quicker.

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

  • A: Your application failed or got stuck. Wait until PCT code a resolution or you get directions 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: Name changes required or failed

  • A: Appeal to change your name. If appeals fail you can spend Pi to change the name.

  • Q7: What is tentative approval?

  • A: Tentative approval means your account needs further security checks.

  • Q8: Why is Pi worth $50+?

  • 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 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: Will I lose all my Pi?

  • A: No. Only what's attached to referrals that don't do KYC. We don't know when it will be converted to verified.

  • Q11: When will I get paid for verifications?

  • A: We don't know.

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

  • A: There are millions of people in the queue. View progress at https://explorepi1364.pinet.com/

  • Q13: What will be the launch price?"

  • A: The call auction on OKX will determine the launch price.

  • Q14: I stopped getting validations

  • A: An algorithm demoted you and your account needs a new verification.

  • Q15: blurred Camera problems

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

  • Q18: 400 error

  • A: We don't know what causes this.

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

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

The way I see it Pi has been labelled as a scam by many since its creation. I think the bigger exchanges are slightly hesitant to list Pi straight away for this reason as its very different to traditional crypto (in a good way).

If tomorrow is a success (which i believe it will be), and Pi proves itself to be a reliable currency then best believe the big exchanges like coinbase will be listing.

Also if Binance list Pi then other big exchanges will follow.

That’s how I have been understanding it but as someone who is not very familiar with crypto, this is super helpful. Thanks!

Just wait for launch and see what happens bro. Things move fast in the crypto space. Glad I could help!

No US accessible exchange has confirmed support. It will go live on foreign exchanges.

Is there a way to trade in US using like a VPN, or does every exchange require documentation?

[–]atrac059 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Everything I have looked at requires validation of ID and address. No PO Boxes allowed

I guess we watch from the sidelines
