Pi Network Second Migration Update 2026: How Much Pi Will Be Migrated and Who Will Receive It
Category: Cryptocurrency | Technology | Pi Network | Updated 2026
Pi Network has officially started discussions and updates regarding the Second Migration, and this is one of the most important phases for Pi users worldwide. Many users are confused about what second migration actually means, who will receive Pi in this phase, and what steps are required to become eligible. The second migration is not just a technical update — it is a major step toward the open network and real ecosystem usage of Pi cryptocurrency.
What Is Pi Network Second Migration?
The second migration in Pi Network refers to the transfer of additional Pi coins to the Mainnet wallet after the first migration. During the first migration, only a portion of the mined Pi was transferred to Mainnet wallets. The remaining Pi — including referral bonuses, security circle rewards, and additional verified mining rewards — will be transferred during the second migration.
In simple words, if you completed KYC and already received some Pi in your Mainnet wallet, then the remaining Pi balance that is still showing as “Unverified” or “Transferable Balance” may be moved during the second migration phase.
Why Second Migration Is Important
Second migration is very important because many users only received a small portion of their Pi during the first migration. A large amount of Pi is still locked in the system because referral members have not completed KYC or some verification steps are still pending. Once those members complete KYC, the remaining Pi becomes eligible for transfer during second migration.
This means many users may see their Mainnet wallet balance increase after second migration. This is why the Pi community is closely watching this phase.
Who Will Receive Pi in Second Migration?
Not everyone will automatically receive Pi in second migration. Only users who meet certain conditions will receive migrated Pi. The main eligibility conditions include:
- KYC must be completed and approved
- Mainnet checklist must be fully completed
- Mainnet wallet must be created and confirmed
- Lockup configuration must be completed
- Referral team members must complete KYC for bonus Pi
- Security circle members must be verified
If these steps are completed, then the remaining Pi balance may be transferred during second migration.
Mainnet Checklist Steps (Very Important)
Many users miss second migration because they do not complete the Mainnet checklist. The checklist includes the following steps:
- Create Pi Mainnet Wallet
- Confirm Wallet in Pi App
- Complete KYC Verification
- Sign Acknowledgement
- Set Lockup Percentage
- Confirm Lockup Settings
- Wait for Migration Queue
If any of these steps are incomplete, migration may be delayed.
What Is Transferable Balance?
Inside the Pi app, you may see three balances:
- Total Balance
- Transferable Balance
- Migrated Balance
Transferable balance is the Pi that can be moved to Mainnet in the next migration. Migrated balance is the Pi that has already been transferred to your Mainnet wallet. During second migration, most of the transferable balance may be moved to the wallet.
When Will Second Migration Happen?
Pi Network does not provide an exact date for each user's migration because migration happens in batches. Some users may receive migration earlier, while others may have to wait depending on KYC verification, referral KYC completion, and network processing queues.
However, according to recent Pi Network updates, the second migration will continue in phases and more balances will be transferred gradually as more users complete KYC and Mainnet requirements.
Common Reasons Migration Is Delayed
- KYC not completed
- Referral team KYC pending
- Mainnet checklist incomplete
- Wallet not confirmed
- Lockup not configured
- Migration queue delay
- Security circle not verified
What Users Should Do Now
If you want to receive Pi in second migration, you should complete the following steps immediately:
- Complete KYC verification
- Complete Mainnet checklist
- Confirm Mainnet wallet
- Set lockup configuration
- Ask referral team members to complete KYC
- Check transferable balance regularly
- Keep mining daily
Future of Pi After Second Migration
Second migration is an important step toward the open network phase where Pi may be used for real transactions, apps, marketplaces, and ecosystem payments. Pi Network is working on building an ecosystem where Pi can be used for goods, services, and digital payments.
If the ecosystem grows and open network launches fully, the value and usability of Pi may increase significantly. However, users should remember that Pi Network is still in development phase and final market value will depend on adoption, exchange listing, and ecosystem usage.
Conclusion
Pi Network Second Migration is mainly about transferring remaining Pi balances to Mainnet wallets after verification and checklist completion. Users who complete KYC, Mainnet checklist, and have verified referral teams will likely receive additional Pi during this migration phase. The process will happen in batches, so users should be patient and ensure all requirements are completed.
For Pi users, the most important steps right now are completing KYC, confirming the Mainnet wallet, setting lockup configuration, and ensuring referral members complete KYC. These steps will determine whether users receive their remaining Pi in the second migration.
