The world, previously known as WorldCoin, has officially launched its identity verification platform in the United States according to a 30 April rack.
With the blockchain-based project, users can confirm their humanity with the help of a world ID, which can now be verified in dedicated centers in six important cities, including Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville and San Francisco.
World stated that its expansion to the US is a strategic step that has been designed to use the leadership of the country in artificial intelligence. According to the company, the US present an ideal environment for the use of digital identity tools that distinguish real individuals from bots.
Through this rollout, American users can verify their identity via the World app and claim Wld -Tokens, the Native Digital Activum of the Platform.
The identity verification aids of the platform, called ORBS, are powered by NVIDIA technology and will be used in special world spaces and selected locations in the retail trade, including Razer stores.
Worldcoin emphasized that the verification process protects privacy and at the same time proves the uniqueness of each user. Gerified users also get access to a growing set of functions within the app, including mini apps focused on education, finances and social involvement.
The expansion comes as the American regulatory landscape becomes more favorable for emerging technologies, especially in the AI and blockchain sectors.
However, the relocation also contrasts sharply with the challenges of the company in Europe, where privacy rules in countries such as Germany have investigated its data collection practices.
