What is WCT (World Chain Token) and Why It Matters?
World Chain Token (WCT) is the native token of World Chain, a new blockchain developed by the team behind Worldcoin. Unlike many L1s, World Chain is uniquely designed to prioritize human-centric interactions, ensuring verified users (via World ID) receive gas subsidies and faster access to block space.
Key Highlights:
Layer 2 on Ethereum, built with OP Stack (like Base)
Human-first design: Prioritizes real people over bots and high-frequency actors
Integration with Worldcoin: Seamless use of World ID and World App
WCT Token Utility: Used for gas fees, governance, and potential staking
Why it matters:
It's part of a broader mission to create proof-of-personhood infrastructure
Bridges the gap between crypto and digital identity
Aims to onboard millions globally, especially in underbanked regions
As World Chain prepares for its mainnet launch in mid-2025, WCT could become a key player in decentralized identity and human-centric blockchain utility.
Stay tuned for the airdrop and staking details expected soon.
