Pi KYC Validator Rewards: First Round of Distributions Completed

April 3, 2026 at 09:47 PM

The Pi Network has successfully completed the first distribution of KYC validator rewards, with over one million human validators completing more than 526 million validations to verify 18 million identities globally. This milestone demonstrates the capability and scale of Pi's decentralized workforce, encouraging more Pioneers to become validators for future reward distributions. The first round's price per validation was notably 22 times the current base mining rate, with rewards transferred to validators' Mainnet Pi Wallets. Pioneers must complete the Mainnet Checklist to receive their payments.
