TLDR

  • Pi Network started second migrations and kept first migrations open for eligible users.
  • Wallet 2FA in Mainnet Checklist Step 3 is now required before migration.
  • Some users must add a trusted email address to complete wallet 2FA setup.
  • Second migrations now include referral mining bonuses linked to completed team KYC.

Pi Network opened second migrations today and kept first migrations active for eligible users. The move lets holders bring additional Pi to Mainnet and join more network activity. It also keeps the earlier migration path open for users who already qualify. The update centers on Mainnet access and account readiness.

The update ties migration access to wallet security checks and verified referral data. Pi Network said two-factor authentication is required before migration. It also said referral mining bonuses can move in second migrations when team members pass KYC. Those rules now shape how users prepare for Mainnet transfers.

Second migrations begin in phases

Pi Network said “second migrations have started and will continue with a gradual rollout.” The company said first migrations will continue as normal for eligible users. This second phase covers extra Pi balances that were not moved before. It gives qualified users another route to reach Mainnet. Pi Network said the rollout opens the door for more ecosystem participation.

The notice did not give one release time for all accounts. A gradual rollout means access can appear in batches across the network. Users still waiting for a first migration can continue on that path. Users who meet new rules may also prepare for later second migrations. The phased approach keeps both migration tracks active at the same time.

Wallet 2FA is now required

To qualify for migration, users must set up Pi Wallet 2FA in Mainnet Checklist Step 3. Some accounts may also need a trusted email address. That email is part of the security process before wallet access is approved. The checklist step now plays a direct role in migration eligibility. Users without a trusted email may need to add one before setup ends.

Pi Network said “2FA is enforced before migrations” because blockchain transfers are irreversible and immutable. Once a transfer reaches the blockchain, it cannot be changed or reversed. The added check is meant to protect wallets before Pi moves to Mainnet. The rule applies before balances are released to the wallet. It places security ahead of transfer speed.

Referral bonuses now depend on team KYC

Second migrations also include referral mining bonuses linked to Referral Team members who fully passed KYC. Bonuses tied to pending or incomplete checks are not ready for migration. Pi Network asked users to remind their teams to complete KYC. That step can unlock bonus balances for a later Mainnet move. The bonus rule connects referral rewards to verified accounts.

The update links referral rewards to verified team activity and compliance. It also gives users a clear reason to follow up on unfinished KYC cases. By pairing referral checks with 2FA, Pi Network is tightening migration controls. The company presented both steps in the same migration notice. That notice ties access to security and identity checks.

First migrations remain active during the second rollout. That means eligible users are not blocked by the new phase. Pi Network is running both tracks at the same time. The company described the rollout as gradual rather than complete.

US SEC approves universal listing standards to expedite cryptocurrency ETF approvals

PANews reported on September 18th that, according to Cointelegraph, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved a set of listing standards for commodity-based trust units, opening the door to digital asset listings without requiring individual approval. The decision, detailed in SEC filings from Nasdaq, NYSE Arca, and Cboe BZX on Wednesday, will streamline the process under Rule 6c-11, significantly reducing the approval process, which previously took several months. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated that this move ensures that the U.S. capital market is the best place for cutting-edge innovation in digital assets, streamlining processes, lowering barriers to entry, maximizing investor choice, and promoting innovation. The US SEC stated that to be eligible for listing, a cryptocurrency spot ETF must hold a commodity that is either traded on a market that belongs to a cross-market monitoring organization and has monitoring authority, or is the subject of a futures contract that has been listed on a designated contract market for at least six months and has a monitoring sharing agreement; in addition, if the cryptocurrency has been tracked by an ETF listed on a national securities exchange with an investment account of at least 40%, then the cryptocurrency spot ETF may also be eligible for listing; when an exchange seeks to list and trade cryptocurrency trading products that do not meet the approved general listing standards, it must submit a rule application to the US SEC.
