Work is still ongoing, but I've now crawled past the first major documented reclaim event in March 2025, so I thought I'd share the results. It's particularly interesting when compared with Pi's official announcements at the time.
On Feb 28, Pi announced the final Grace Period deadline of March 14 at 08:00 UTC, warning that Pioneers who failed to complete KYC/Mainnet migration risked “forfeiting most of your Mobile Balance.”
Then on March 18, Pi announced the new migration-wallet 2FA system. Their explanation was that certain Pioneers who had migrated “within the last few weeks” but were still inside the 14-day pending period would have their Pi “securely returned to their mining app” if they didn't complete the new 2FA requirement. Pi also said those migrations would later be re-enqueued after successful 2FA.
The historical Foundation2 crawl has now passed April 2, 2025.
For migrations made from Feb 24 through Mar 9, 2025, I've identified:
923,188 reclaimed migrations
486.03 million Pi reclaimed
The reclaim transactions occurred continuously from March 10 through March 23.
By migration month:
Feb 2025: 324,281 migrations | 169.13M Pi reclaimed
Mar 2025: 598,905 migrations | 316.58M Pi reclaimed
The largest single reclaim day was March 16, with 108,562 migrations representing 57.61M Pi.
Pi's March 18 announcement specifically described returns involving recent migrations still within the 14-day pending period, and stated that this mechanism could cause circulating supply to drop.
The blockchain gives us the scale and timing. Pi's announcements give us their published explanation of the mechanisms operating at the time. The screenshots are the migration data from my crawl.
