A World of Human Possibilities
summary
World launches a privacy-preserving proof-of-human system using ZK proofs called World ID, with three verification levels (device, NFC document, orb) and backend-required proof verification; Mini Apps inherit World App’s distribution (38M users, 18M orb-verified, 7.5M+ monthly, 2.1B opens) and offer commands like verify, pay, send transaction (permits not allowances); a new Agent Kit delegates World ID to AI agents for rate-limited ticketing and on-chain agent actions, and multiple live case studies show real usage and scale.
