Hey everyone, to make things clear: I am not sponsored by anybody and this is not a financial advice. I am sharing with you how to claim free #WLD grants, because I noticed lots of you are interested in this topic since #WLD shot to the moon during the past 2 weeks.
This is how I am doing it:
First of all, please do some research on WLD and read the whitepaper, e.g. on their website: https://worldcoin.org
In some countries it might not be possible or even illegal to use their services (The US!), so please check this carefully.
1. I downloaded the app (World App) and created an account. It is basically a crypto wallet (hot wallet) and holds also your World-ID (after you got verified by an Orb).
2. I checked out the location of the closest Orb near me and drove a loooong way to get verified. This means I stepped in front of an eyeball-scanning machine to let it scan my iris to create a unique code - my World-ID, the proof of personhood. Worldcoin states this code is created during the process of scanning and that no images or other information than the ID itself will be saved. Zero-Knowledge-Proof, the code just holds the information that a real person/human (and not a bot) is using the service. There is a reason why Worldcoin is being watched by data-protecting agencies in different countries, because using biometric data to create a code is not common, holds a lot of risks and it is natural to be averse to these kind of things. But I also saw the potential of their project and decided to trust their whitepaper. Please DYOR before you take this decision!
3. I integrated my World-ID into my wallet (World App) and started claiming their grants via the app. The maximum share per person is 120 WLD over a time of 12 months. After you got verified you can claim 25 WLD once, and then 3 WLD every 2 weeks. You can use the wallet to buy, send and receive crypto (only WLD, BTC and ETH at present).
Hope this helped!
