It sounds like the Pi Network community in Nigeria is quite active, and KYC verification seems to be a major challenge for many users. But don't worry, the following steps can help you quickly resolve the Pi KYC issue.
First, let's take a look at what conditions are required to complete Pi KYC:
1. You must be at least 18 years old.
2. You must have a government-issued identification document, such as a passport, driver's license, or national ID card. Among them, the passport is the recommended option.
3. During live detection, ensure that the face is clearly visible and matches the photo on the identification.
4. Mining Pi requires at least 30 days of record.
5. The entire process takes about 5 to 10 minutes and won't take up too much time.
As indicated, the qualifications and requirements may vary by country, so please pay close attention.
So, here come the specific steps:
First, download the Pi Browser app, whether using the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. Next, access the mainnet section through the sidebar in the Pi Network app. Then, complete all the mainnet checklist tasks, and finally submit your KYC application.
If the KYC tab does not unlock automatically, then manually go to the "kyc.pi" section in the Pi browser to access it.
Then, select the country you are in, you can find it in the drop-down menu; next, choose the type of identification, it is recommended to use a passport, especially for friends from Nigeria, using an international passport or NIN are both good choices. Then, follow the instructions to take a photo of your identification, and remember to include your name, surname, date of birth, and other information.
Next, it's the live detection. Make sure the lighting is sufficient, and your face should be clearly visible.
After submission, you may need to wait for approval. The time may vary depending on the accuracy of the information and the availability of the verifiers, ranging from a few minutes to several months. You can check the status of your Pi Network profile; a green checkmark indicates that the application has been approved. If the "Waiting for KYC Results" tab in the mainnet checklist is green, then congratulations!
If the application has not been processed for a long time, consider contacting some trusted members of the crypto community or following their advice.
The entire KYC process requires paying 1 Pi coin to the verifier as a token of gratitude. Does it feel a bit annoying? But in the end, it's worth it, as it ensures a complete experience with the Pi Network.
Lastly, it is inevitable to remind you that the above information is for reference only and should not be taken as financial advice.
