Phone Number required for registration and Cannot continue the keybase initial setup

Dear Keybase Developers/ Community,

I had an issue where when setting up keybase, I was required to use a phone number because the setup would get stuck on that stage and would not continue even after inputing a phone number and entering the code sent to my phone.

If you guys can fix this for future accounts we would greatly appreciate it.

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the initial Keybase setup through phone-number entry and code verification, then trace where setup stops. Done means registration can continue after the verification step without getting stuck.
