Worldcoin
Project Links
Description
Worldcoin (WLD) is the native token of the World real-human network. It can support uses including governance, identity, and financial access. Its token contract is deployed on Ethereum mainnet and WLD is bridged to World Chain, where World Foundation expects most WLD activity to occur.Category: L2

World ID
Project Links
Description
World ID is a privacy-preserving digital identity protocol implementing zero-knowledge proof verification to enable users to confirm humanness and uniqueness online without revealing personal information. The system operates through biometric iris-scanning via Orb devices or device-level authentication, generating cryptographic proofs that prevent bot access and sybil attacks while maintaining user anonymity through decentralized credential storage.Category: Decentralised Identity
World Chain
Project Links
Description
World Chain is an Ethereum Layer 2 network built on the OP Stack that prioritizes verified humans through native World ID integration and gas allowances for authenticated users. The blockchain implements priority mempool allocation for World ID holders to reduce bot traffic, achieves approximately 2-second block times with gas costs under a few cents for simple transactions, and maintains full EVM compatibility with Optimism Superchain composability for cross-chain interoperability.Category: L2
Orb
Project Links
Description
The Orb is a biometric verification device utilizing iris-scanning technology with Nvidia Jetson AI processing to verify human uniqueness for World ID registration. The hardware implements multispectral sensors for liveness detection, processes iris images locally to generate encrypted iris codes without storing biometric data, and operates through swappable battery packs for portable deployment across global verification locations.Category: Node Hardware
