Mustafa Mulla31 Jan 20252 min read
Here we go again! Pi Network has once again made a last-minute decision to extend its KYC (Know Your Customer) verification and Mainnet migration deadline—this time to February 28, 2025. Just one day before the originally planned Mainnet launch on January 31, 2025, Pi Network surprised everyone with this third extension.
But here’s the twist: despite the delay, Pi Coin has still managed to surge by 10% in just 24 hours. What does this mean for the future of Pi Coin and its holders? Keep reading to find out what’s really at stake.
Why the Extension?
Pi Network explained in a blog post that the grace period for KYC updates and migration has been extended to February 28 to ensure fairness. This gives everyone more time to complete their verification without losing their Pi coins.
The extension won’t affect the launch of the Open Network, which is still scheduled for Q1 2025. Pi Network made it clear that the new deadline won’t change the timeline for the launch, so everything is still on track.
What Happens If You Miss the Deadline?
Pi holders need to act quickly. Anyone who doesn’t complete the KYC process and migration by the new deadline will lose their coins. Only Pi mined within the last six months before migration will be kept. Older balances will be lost. So, users need to move fast to secure their holdings.
Pi Coin Price Soars
Despite the extended grace period, Pi Coin has seen a significant price jump. In just 24 hours, Pi Coin’s price increased by 10%, reaching nearly $50, with a market cap of $3.38 billion
As the mainnet launch nears, Pi Coin traders are closely monitoring key price levels. If the mainnet launch occurs before the end of Q1, there’s potential for Pi Coin to hit $100. However, if delayed, it may see a bearish decline towards $28.
Pi holders now have more time to complete KYC and migration, but the clock is ticking. The new deadline gives them a chance to secure their coins, but they should act quickly to avoid losing them. February 28, 2025, is fast approaching.
