Pi Network is scorching earth to keep its mainnet migration date to remain December 31, 2024, as the migration marks a crucial step in the project’s development. Following the migration, the project will transition Pi tokens from a testnet environment to a fully functional blockchain network.
The mainnet migration will enable Pi tokens to be traded on decentralized exchanges, used for real-world transactions, and integrated into various decentralized applications (DApps).
Social media is buzzing with posts that Pi Network’s founder and CEO confirmed that the open Mainnet migration deadline remains set for December 31, 2024, as originally planned.
Additionally, Pi Network extended the first deadline for KYC application submissions from September 30 to November 30, 2024. This Checklist includes important tasks like verifying your identity through KYC, securing your Pi balance, and preparing for the Mainnet transition.
If users miss the December 31 deadline, they will lose most of their Pi balance, except for Pi mined within the last six months prior to migration. This makes the final deadline particularly significant for those who wish to preserve their Pi earnings and participate fully in the network’s Open Network phase.
Pi Network has highlighted that the migration to Mainnet is not just a technical transition but a pivotal step toward realizing its broader goals of creating a decentralized, community-driven economy. The network urges all participants to ensure they meet this deadline and to remind their Referral Team and Security Circle members to do the same.
Why the Extension?
The extension was granted to address several factors, including technical issues with the KYC timer, which impacted some users. Additionally, the extension ensures that more participants are given ample time to verify their accounts, maintaining momentum within the community while aligning with Pi Network’s Open Mainnet goals.
Key Dates to Remember:
- November 30, 2024: New KYC application deadline.
- December 31, 2024: Final Mainnet migration deadline.
With the clock ticking, Pi Network encourages all Pioneers to complete their KYC as soon as possible. Missing these deadlines could lead to significant losses, especially for those with lot of Pi balances accumulated over time. The grace period ensures no further extensions will be made, reaffirming the network’s vision to transition fully to an open blockchain ecosystem by the end of the year.
