What is Worldcoin?

What is Worldcoin?

Worldcoin is an open-source protocol that aims to make the global economy accessible to everyone by creating a digital identity called World ID and providing, where allowed by law, a digital currency (Worldcoin).

Worldcoin was co-founded by Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, and aims to create a global currency and ID that allows for easy transfers, payments, and purchases using its token along with other cryptocurrencies and traditional assets.

Built upon World ID, Worldcoin is driving its mission forward through a suite of interconnected tools. These include:

World ID

World ID is a unique proof of personhood (PoP) credential that acts as a digital passport in the online world. It offers a privacy-focused digital identity solution that confirms an individual's unique existence through a custom biometric device called the Orb. The use of iris recognition sets Worldcoin's verification system apart from others, making it unparalleled in scale. This tackles the challenges associated with personal identification in a novel way.

Worldcoin Token

Worldcoin Token (WLD) is a unique token that has been distributed globally and at no cost, providing individuals with both practical use and the ability to participate in future decision making. You can trade WLD on the OKX exchange.

World App

The World App is a comprehensive platform that enables you to conduct transactions, purchases, and transfers using various currencies, including the Worldcoin token, digital assets, stablecoins, and traditional currencies.

Worldcoin embraces the future of decentralized identities. The technology empowers individuals to verify their human authenticity on integrated platforms. By doing so, it ensures fair airdrops, safeguards against bots and sybil attacks on social media, and promotes equitable distribution of resources.

How to participate in Worldcoin

  1. Download the World App, which serves as the first wallet app supporting the creation of a World ID.

  2. Head to the physical imaging device called the Orb to get the World ID Orb-verified. Orb Operators, a network of independent local businesses, operate most Orbs.

  3. The Orb uses multispectral sensors to verify the authenticity and uniqueness of each individual, and issues an Orb-verified World ID. It's important to note that all images captured during the process are promptly deleted on-device by default, unless explicit consent for data custody is given.

How to deposit Worldcoin

1. Go to the main navigation bar and click on the 'Assets' option. Access the 'Deposit' page and choose the WLD token from the dropdown box.
