As a seasoned researcher with a knack for following emerging technologies, I find myself intrigued by World’s ambitious expansion into Brazil. Having closely observed the digital identity landscape, it’s clear that the need for secure, anonymous verification systems is on the rise, especially amidst growing concerns over AI-generated bots and deep fakes.
Previously recognized as Worldcoin, the organization has unveiled the start of World ID Orb verifications within Brazil.
The announcement made on November 12 states that World ID verification will be extended to a Latin American nation, having first appeared there in 2023 during the worldwide tour and sneak peek phase of the project.
World intends to expand its digital identity and human verification technology to a broader audience with its upcoming return. As per a recent blog post, Brazilians will have access starting from Wednesday, November 13, 2024.
As an analyst, I’ve been closely observing the project that Sam Altman helped establish back in July 2023. While we’ve encountered numerous obstacles along the way, including legal and regulatory challenges, we’ve managed to persevere and extend our reach across the globe.
After the release of the devices in various other nations, we’re now returning to Brazil. Lately, we’ve set up our systems in Costa Rica, Poland, and Austria.
As stated on its website, the World App currently boasts over 16 million total users, and more than 7.5 million of these users have undergone unique human verification processes.
As a crypto investor, I’m excited about the launch in Brazil that offers more individuals the chance to authenticate their human identities using World ID 3.0. This updated version enables anonymous verification, which is becoming increasingly crucial given the rising worries over artificial intelligence-powered bots and deepfakes. A recent survey has shown that people are growing increasingly anxious about identity theft, making this development even more significant.
Alongside advancements in verification, global initiatives also involve the introduction of World Chain – a layer-2 network on the Superchain. The World Foundation made this Ethereum-backed network accessible to the public in October, with collaborations from partners like Optimism, Uniswap, Alchemy, and Dune.
In simpler terms, the two-tier network now supports Across, a system that facilitates interoperability using intentions, allowing for cross-chain transactions and transfer of digital assets like Ethereum, wrapped Ethereum, and USD Coin.
