Worldcoin announces rebranding as "World" and introduces a faster Orb for identity verification

#Worldcoin rebrands as "World" and unveils an upgraded, faster version of its iris-scanning device, the Orb. The Orb 2.0 is designed to be quicker to build and operate, incorporating enhanced chips and open-source code.

Additionally, #World aims to speed up the adoption of its World ID system by allowing onboarding with government IDs. While less reliable than the Orb in confirming humanity, additional checks help prevent deepfakes. A new feature, World ID Deep Faces, will let users verify online identities to ensure they're not interacting with deepfakes, as long as the person has a World ID.
