Complete Preliminary Tasks

In the Mainnet checklist tab, finish all required tasks, including the "Submit your KYC Application" task.

Post-Application Process

KYC approval times can vary widely, from minutes to months, depending on the accuracy of your information and validator availability. You can monitor your application status through your app profile - a green checkmark indicates successful verification, while a loading animation means your application is still pending. Your submission will be reviewed by at least two verified users from your country. Note that the KYC process requires a fee of 1 Pi coin, which goes to the validators. If your application remains pending for an extended period, consider consulting official channels or community resources for guidance on expediting the process.
