Let's take a look at the underlying logic of the project.
@Worldcoin Aims to build a decentralized proof of personhood network through biometric devices that scan irises to generate a unique digital identity, World ID, addressing the issue of real identity verification in the age of artificial intelligence. Its core architecture includes:
World ID: A global digital identity based on zero-knowledge proof (ZK) to prevent Sybil attacks and fake accounts.
WLD Token: Serving as a governance and payment medium, achieving a 'one person, one vote' democratic governance mechanism in conjunction with World ID.
World App: An application entry that integrates payment, trading, and identity management, promoting global inclusive finance.
Main sources of income
II.
The project achieves profitability through three types of scenarios:
1. Identity verification service: Charging third-party platforms for World ID invocation fees for anti-fraud, anti-cheating, and other scenarios.
2. Financial transaction commission: A fee charged for payments, remittances, and transactions within the World App.
3. Traffic monetization: Attracting advertising partnerships based on user scale. Future expansion may include data services (compliance with privacy regulations required).
III. Key data supplement
User scale: In the pre-launch phase (2021-2023), over 2 million users have been verified through Orb, mainly in Asia.
(32.1%) and Africa (31.6%) account for the highest proportions.
Token distribution: A total of 10 billion tokens, with 75% allocated to the community (user incentives, ecological fund), and the team and investors accounting for 25%.
Circulation: Initial circulation of 143 million tokens (including 43 million user airdrops + 100 million market maker loans)
Based on the data above, we can conclude that the future applications of WLD will continue to increase, including but not limited to transfers, staking, exchanges, and continuously improving traffic functionalities, etc.
