If the app is also a Pi Network user and even after your KYC is complete, the Mainnet migration step is showing pending, then the app is not alone. Thousands of users are confused. People are unable to understand what the main problem is, whether it is their side or the system’s.
But the real reason for this is something else – Security Circle. Let’s understand in simple language.
When your KYC is verified, the system automatically checks:
Are you a genuine user or not
Is there any suspicious activity in your account
Is your Security Circle valid or incomplete?
KYC completion is the first step of migration, but it is not complete.
What is the role of the Security Circle in the Mainnet migration process?
Pi Network has created a decentralized trust model for security, named Security Circle. This Circle is a kind of network verification system that ensures that all users are trusted.
✅ As long as your circle of minimum 5 trusted members is not valid, migration goes on hold.
Real reasons why your migration is pending even after KYC is complete
1. Security Circle members did not do KYC:
If none of the users you have added to your circle have their KYC verified, then your migration will remain pending.
2. Security Circle is incomplete:
If you have added only 3 or 4 users, then the circle is not considered valid. You need a minimum of 5.
3. KYC is done, but the wallet is not linked:
Many people forget to create a wallet in Pi Browser after KYC. If the wallet is not linked, then coins are not transferred.
Migration will happen only when KYC of referral members is complete and mainnet migration happens.
The Pi Network system smartly waits until your security circle is active and KYC is verified. When everything is valid, then:
✅ The automatic migration process will start
✅ Coins will start showing in your Mainnet wallet
✅ You will get a notification via SMS or the app
How to fast your migration?
Here are some steps that you should follow:
1. Ask your Security Circle members to do KYC
2. Minimum 5 people should be trusted and active
3. Wallet should be set up and linked in the Pi Browser app
4. Phase-wise migration may take some time – be patient
