Tools for Humanity, founded by Sam Altman, launched a point of scanning the iris of the eyes in six cities of the United States. The project participants receive the WLD Digital Currency and the World ID identification, which confirms that the owner is a real person, not artificial intelligence.
To participate, you must visit one of the locations in Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville or San Francisco and use the ORB device. It converts biometric data in a unique code, with the exception of the possibility of fake. Users receive up to 150 Wld for the procedure. Later cryptocurrency can be exchanged for ordinary money via a special visa card – the release is planned for the summer.
World -ID has already been tested in unusual areas. The Tinder Dating service, for example, regards it as a tool to check the age, and in Minecraft and Discord the identification can become an alternative to traditional authorization methods. The project, which started in 2019, is developing slower through predictions: instead of the planned billion users by 2023, the basis rose to 26 million, of which 12 million were verified. However, Geography is expanding: In addition to the United States, scanning points work in Razer stores and covers the public 100 countries.
The main goal of the world is to create a worldwide digital identification system that can withstand fraud. It is still unclear whether it will be a massive solution, but to show experiments with payments and authorization – Startup is looking for a practical application outside the Cryptomarkt.
