We've released the Grace Period algorithms to refine timer pauses based on system blocks. Now, the timer will be much more accurate in pausing for Pioneers who experience the system blocks justified for pauses, reducing unnecessary pauses. Additionally, we've introduced a new feature for Pioneers to report the steps they're stuck on: when the timer is active in the Mainnet Checklist, Pioneers can click on the “I need help with my checklist completion” link to report.
Remember: Sept 30 is the first deadline of Grace Period—Submit your KYC by then and remind your teams to do the same!
The network has reached over 13 million Pioneers who have passed KYC and over 6 million Pioneers who have migrated to Mainnet! Through our collective efforts, we’re progressing towards the Open Network goals. Keep in mind that the progress is not linear and has been accelerating historically.
Considering the ongoing Grace Period that started on July 1, 2024, act now to KYC and complete your Mainnet Checklist to join the millions of Pioneers already on the Mainnet!
Take part in the August Art Festival, “Infographics about Pi” to educate Pioneers or new members about Pi overall, specific Pi products, roadmaps, how-tos of Mainnet Checklist items or anything you think useful for people to learn about Pi that would support our collective progress to Open Network. Here's an example infographic about how you can get started!

As more Pioneers migrate to the Mainnet, please be reminded of the safety of your non-custodial Pi Wallet and Pi. Mistakes in sharing your wallet passphrase to bad actors or phishing sites may result in irreversible transactions due to the immutability of blockchain. Make sure you only access your Pi Wallet via exactly “https://t.co/7T4MM9b56t”, NOT any variations of similar URLs or sites pretending to be the Pi Wallet. Refer to the recently updated Pi Safety Center for all official links, accounts and handles, and past safety announcements https://t.co/r4rh8VsAPQ
🎉 Major technical upgrade in the Mainnet migration mechanism DOUBLED the speed at which Pioneers migrate to Mainnet! Complete the Mainnet Checklist to use your Pi too. Go to the Pi mining app announcement to learn more!
