Important Update: KYC Deadline Extended to November 30, 2024

In a significant development, the first deadline of the Grace Period for submitting Know Your Customer (KYC) applications has been extended to November 30, 2024. This extension gives Pioneers more time to complete KYC, while the final deadline for Mainnet migration remains unchanged on December 31, 2024. Be sure to meet these deadlines to avoid forfeiting most of your past Pi balance, other than Pi mined within the rolling window of the last 6 months before your Pi is migrated.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of cryptocurrency, staying updated with system enhancements and features is crucial for success. Pi Network has recently introduced significant updates designed to improve user experience for its Pioneers. These updates aim to enhance timer accuracy and offer better support during the mining process. This article explores these latest changes and their implications for Pi Network participants.

Pi Network has unveiled a major update to its Grace Period algorithms, focusing on refining how timer pauses are managed during system blocks. Previously, timers might have paused unnecessarily due to system blocks, which could disrupt mining activities and cause confusion among Pioneers. With the new algorithm enhancements, the timer will now pause more accurately, only doing so when actual system blocks occur. This adjustment is intended to reduce unwarranted pauses and ensure more reliable tracking of mining progress.

Accurate timer management is vital for an efficient mining experience. The update to Grace Period algorithms promises fewer disruptions and a smoother mining process for Pioneers. By reducing unnecessary pauses, Pi Network aims to improve overall productivity and ensure that mining efforts are properly recorded.

To further support its Pioneers, Pi Network has introduced a new feature that allows users to report issues directly when working on the Mainnet Checklist. If a Pioneer encounters difficulties while the timer is active, they can now click on the “I need help with my checklist completion” link. This feature provides a straightforward way to report specific steps where issues are being faced, facilitating quicker support and resolution.

1. Find the Link: When facing an issue with the Mainnet Checklist, Pioneers should locate the “I need help with my checklist completion” link while the timer is active.
2. Describe the Issue: Detailed descriptions of the problem should be provided. The more specific the information, the more effectively the support team can address the issue.
3. Submit the Report: After describing the problem, the report should be submitted. The support team will review the report and provide assistance to help resolve the issue.

This new feature is designed to streamline the support process and minimize delays, allowing Pioneers to continue their mining activities with fewer interruptions.

The KYC process is a fundamental aspect of ensuring security and regulatory compliance within the Pi Network. Timely submission of KYC documentation helps to maintain account status and contributes to the stability of the network. Delays in submission could lead to interruptions in mining activities, making it important for Pioneers to complete this step promptly.
