Ah, the World Network! Once known as Worldcoin, this blockchain brainchild of Sam Altman, the man who seems to have a hand in everything tech-related, has decided to dip its toes into the chat waters. Yes, you heard it right! They’ve launched a new chat application that promises to connect us with real, live humans. Imagine that! 🤯
On March 6, the World Network team unveiled World Chat, a “mini app” that’s currently in beta. It’s like a digital cocktail party where you can mingle with actual people—no more awkward small talk with bots! And fear not, dear user, for this app comes equipped with end-to-end encryption, ensuring that your secrets remain as safe as a squirrel’s stash of acorns. 🐿️
But wait, there’s more! This launch is part of World Network’s grand plan to roll out its proof-of-personhood feature to the masses. Because who doesn’t want to prove they’re a real human? It’s like a digital rite of passage!
According to their blog post (which I’m sure was written with great enthusiasm), this mini app is all about integrating with the World ID protocol and World App wallet. This means you can verify if the person you’re chatting with is, in fact, a bona fide human being. No more chatting with a rogue AI that thinks it’s a cat! 🐱
In a move reminiscent of Apple’s iMessage, World Chat will use chat bubbles to differentiate between verified and unverified identities. Blue bubbles for the real deal and grey bubbles for those who might just be a figment of your imagination. It’s like a digital game of “Guess Who?” but with fewer awkward questions about your favorite color.
“By connecting to World ID, World Chat allows you to know when you’re chatting with a verified human. Conversations with verified World ID holders feature a blue chat bubble as well as a unique World ID gem in the upper right corner. Conversations with non-verified accounts feature a grey chat bubble and no such gem,” the World Network team wrote. Because who doesn’t love a good gem? 💎
But hold on to your hats, folks! Beyond just chatting, World Chat will let users send and receive cryptocurrencies. Yes, you can now discuss your favorite cat videos while simultaneously transferring digital coins. Multitasking at its finest!
World, formerly known as Worldcoin, made its grand debut in July 2023, allowing people to verify their human identity through its iris-scanning orbs. Yes, you read that right—iris-scanning orbs! Talk about a sci-fi twist! Despite facing some regulatory hurdles (because who doesn’t love a good bureaucratic obstacle?), the World App wallet has managed to attract over 24 million users. That’s a lot of humans! 🥳
And if that’s not enough, more than 486 million of the native token WLD has been distributed across 160 countries. It’s like a global treasure hunt, but instead of gold, you’re hunting for digital tokens!
