#PI Pinetwork users, a discussion on activating the mainnet wallet
BTC—ETH
Recently, the most heated and controversial topic within the Pi community has been “whether to activate the Pi Wallet.” Many rumors have caused many Pi pioneers to have doubts and concerns. Today, we will analyze and discuss the origin of “activating the wallet.”
The “activate wallet” feature was introduced simultaneously with the Pi Network project team’s launch of the fast KYC plan.
Let’s first look at the article published on the official Pi Network blog:
On 2025.09.18, the official blog posted an article titled 《Fast KYC process enables new users to activate their wallets earlier, making it easier to participate in the ecosystem.》
The excerpt is as follows:
“Pi Network has introduced a fast KYC feature, designed and implemented by further integrating artificial intelligence technology into the KYC process. New pioneer users and non-users can complete verification through fast KYC, allowing them to participate in the mainnet ecosystem earlier than before.
Engage with the ecosystem earlier
Traditionally, new users need to complete at least 30 mining sessions before submitting a standard KYC application. This creates a delay between users joining the network and being able to interact with the mainnet ecosystem. The fast KYC channel eliminates this barrier.
Now, pioneer users (including non-users) with fewer than 30 mining sessions are eligible to verify their identity and activate their mainnet wallets in advance. If qualified, users will see this option directly in the Pi Wallet app, allowing them to start the KYC process. Once verified, users can immediately access the Pi mainnet wallet and its features.”
Based on the above summary, we can conclude the following points:
1. The target audience of the fast KYC plan is new users and non-users.
2. The purpose of the fast KYC plan is to allow more new users and non-users to engage with the ecosystem earlier.
3. Fast KYC process: whether it is a new user or a non-user, after submitting KYC for review and passing the verification, even if the mining days are fewer than 30, they can activate their mainnet wallet in advance to engage with the Pi ecosystem sooner.
4. Conditions for activating the mainnet wallet early through fast KYC: submit KYC and pass the review to confirm it is a real account; then the mainnet wallet can be activated in advance.
