This week, what started as Worldcoin became World.

We hope this will be a real human network providing identity, financial infrastructure and community to everyone.

We also released many new things. Image
A new Orb. New design, faster, designed to be auditable, and with new ways to bring more Orbs to more people.

Most importantly, everyone can now buy one to become an operator. Image
World ID 3.0. Anonymized Multi Party Computation (AMPC) for a provably anonymous uniqueness check.

Private credentials for government ID support.

And Deep Face -- a product built on top of the Orbs capabilities to help with deep fakes.

World App 3.0. A full redesign to make it much better, and also allow everyone to build Mini Apps for the 15m people already using World App.
World Chain Mainnet. A World specific implementation of an Ethereum L2, that can scale by prioritizing validated human transactions.

The simple plan for World hasn’t changed, and probably never will. We’re now at 3.

1/ Develop a private way to enable everyone to prove their unique humanity at internet scale.

2/ Use it to launch a digital token (where allowed) to distribute ownership of the network to everyone. The token aligns incentives of everyone to get the network to critical scale and be useful.

3/ Continue to decentralize and scale further.

4/ Among other things, use it to make the benefits of AI accessible to everyone.Image

1/ Today, I am excited to reveal Worldcoin, a new, global digital currency that will be distributed fairly to as many people as possible. We will launch by giving a free share of Worldcoin to everyone on Earth. Read more: worldcoin.org
2/ It’s still early, but our field tests are very promising: 150k+ sign ups and counting. One Orb signs up 700+ users per week on average. We’ll produce 50k+ devices a year. If these metrics scale, Worldcoin has the potential to onboard more than a billion people in two years.
3/ With this ambitious idea in mind, we encountered many hard technical challenges on the way. These challenges included biometrics, hardware, economics and of course, crypto. worldcoin.org/how-it-works
