News from Moderators in Pi App

We are sending invitations to Pioneers to fill 100,000 free KYC slots over the next few months. On a daily basis, our system will automatically select Pioneers based on their past and future potential contributions to Pi, including Node, Platform, community and engagement etc. We generally do not make manual selection for KYC through email requests. We have over 8 million engaged Pioneers, but only 100,000 free slots for the initial batch of Pioneers who have contributed and will contribute to Pi's economic ecosystem over the next few months. If you think you should belong to the initial batch, please be patient for our system to automatically select you for the remaining slots of the 100,000 over the next few months. More slots may be available in future, so be patient and do not worry.
Currently, Pi KYC is conducted by a third-party KYC provider, and the required documents for many countries are limited to only passports. We recognize and hear that obtaining passports is difficult for some Pioneers, and we hope to develop a decentralized, reliable, low- to no-cost KYC process customized for the Pi community in the future that does not necessarily require passports. The ultimate goal is to enable every Pioneer in the network to pass KYC or prove their humanness eventually for the Mainnet. Best regards.
