🟡 Worldcoin’s developer wants to partner with PayPal and OpenAI: report
The team behind the iris-scanning crypto project Worldcoin wants to collaborate with tech and finance heavyweights, Bloomberg reports.
Worldcoin's developer, Tools for Humanity, is interested in partnerships with the payments giant PayPal and the artificial intelligence firm OpenAI. However, Bloomberg adds that details of the partnerships are still unclear, and no concrete plans appear to have emerged yet.
Tools for Humanity previously partnered with Okta Inc, a cybersecurity firm, for better Worldcoin authentication services.
🔺 Worldcoin scans a person's irises with an orb to create a catalogue of digital identities and in exchange, the user receives the cryptocurrency WLD.
WLD traded hands at $4.88 at 11:27 a.m. ET on April 25 after seeing a 4.20% price decrease in the past day. According to The Block price page for the cryptocurrency, WLD has a circulating supply of 195.3 million and a market capitalization of $951.9 million.
The project plans to release an Ethereum Layer 2 called World Chain in the summer of 2024. The network aims to augment user onboarding into Worldcoin. "It will be open for everyone, and verified humans will get priority blockspace over bots as well as a gas allowance for casual transactions," Worldcoin wrote at the time of the announcement. "The network will be deeply integrated with the Worldcoin protocol to accelerate growth and leverage World ID’s Proof of Personhood. It will also be secured by Ethereum as an L2 and engineered for scalability with the Superchain ecosystem."
However, Worldcoin is not welcomed globally. Spain, Portugal and Kenya have all taken steps to block Worldcoin from scanning their citizens's irises. Still, Worldcoin's website touts nearly 5.1 million sign-ups across 120 countries, with over 2,000 orbs manufactured.
Tools for Humanity's chairman and co-founder Sam Altman is also the co-chair of OpenAI, developer of the popular generative AI ChatGPT.
