World Chain is now open to every human
From world.org
World Chain is live. As of October 17th, all 15M World ID holders and World App users have either migrated or are in the process of migrating to World Chain—the first blockchain designed to benefit humans first.
On Day One, World Chain is being supported by world class blockchain service providers and applications including Optimism, Alchemy, Uniswap, Safe, Dune and Etherscan. World Chain natively integrates World ID and gives all verified humans access to prioritized blockspace.
World Chain’s vision is to ensure that blockchains ultimately benefit humans first.
Today, World Chain is already the chain with the largest number of individually verified humans. The World Foundation is thrilled to be able to offer everyone an open invitation into a blockchain economy that puts verified humans first at every level of the stack.
World Chain is built for every human and will be prioritizing two kinds of use cases above all else to start:
- Anonymous human verification. World Chain natively integrates with the only anonymous identity verification protocol that exists onchain today, World ID. This is a new primitive that has never existed before and enables unprecedented use cases. If you want to engage with real people, World Chain is the best possible place to build.
- Financial access. World ID holders today are predominantly in countries where the adoption of stablecoins and other cryptocurrencies is growing the fastest, often because they provide true utility in people’s lives. We want World Chain to accelerate this trend by placing humans at the center of a network for products that provide even greater means of financial access and inclusion. We are integrating with a global network of on and offramps and stablecoin markets to support the millions of users around the world holding cryptocurrencies.
Since opening up the developer preview in July, World Chain has brought onboard several key partners to support both the millions of people moving to World Chain from OP Mainnet and the millions more that will be onboarding in the years to come. We’ve been thrilled by the support of the community in enabling World Chain to be world-class.
On Day 1, World Chain will be supported by the best blockchain service providers and applications that let developers build onchain. These include Optimism for shared security and interoperability, Alchemy for building onchain, Uniswap for swapping assets, Zerion for real-time APIs, Dune Analytics for analyzing data, Etherscan to explore the chain, Fireblocks for institutional custody, and Safe for multisignature wallet support. In addition, World Chain already has third party on and off ramps into over 150+ countries across the world.
