A New Deadline&#8230; Again Pi Network took center stage on February 20 when it launched its Open Network. This development happened almost six years after the project saw the light of day. It made the PI token publicly accessible and allowed crypto exchanges to list it.\u00a0 Despite reaching the huge milestone, Pi Network remains quite controversial.

They said users whose Pi account name and KYC name do not match would\u00a0normally have their applications rejected due to their failure to prove their ownership. To resolve the problem, people should resubmit their applications with corrected details or update their Pi account name with a penalty of forfeiting part of their Mobile Balance.\u00a0 \u201cEligible Pioneers include those whose KYC applications\u00a0were rejected due to name mismatches. However, Pioneers are eligible only if they have appealed exactly\u00a0one time due to this rejection reason, and that single appeal\u00a0was denied,\u201d the team stated at the time. In addition, Pi Network enabled users who have made minor typos when putting their phone numbers into their Pi account to edit up to two digits.\u00a0 \u201cAllowing only up to two digits to change is to make sure the phone number change will not\u00a0be exploited by policy violators such as account transfers and sales or hackers taking over someone\u2019s account,\u201d the disclosure reads.
