Worldcoin’s ambitious mission to create a more human economic system is gaining significant momentum with its groundbreaking World ID protocol. Today, the project achieved a remarkable milestone, surpassing 2 million sign-ups for its cutting-edge identity verification system in record time.
The World ID protocol, powered by the Worldcoin ecosystem, allows individuals to prove their uniqueness and humanity in a privacy-preserving manner. This achievement marks a significant step forward in the global effort to provide digital identities for the 4.4 billion people worldwide who lack a legally recognized or digitally verifiable identity, a major barrier to accessing financial services.
The diverse range of sign-ups has flooded in from cities around the world, including Barcelona, Berlin, Buenos Aires, New York, Seoul, and Tokyo. This surge aligns with the recent availability of Orbs, specialized biometric imaging devices designed exclusively for Worldcoin, as part of the project’s global tour. Every week, over 40,000 individuals join the World ID community, seeking verified digital identities.

To cater to the growing demand for verified World IDs, Worldcoin plans to expand Orb availability significantly in the coming months. Details on the release of new Orbs will be shared soon, ensuring more individuals can access this groundbreaking technology.
Moreover, the World ID protocol is gaining traction among various applications and services. Auth0, a global authentication and authorization platform, recently integrated “Sign in with Worldcoin” for tens of thousands of applications and online services. Talent Protocol also became the first web3 platform in Europe to embrace World ID integration.
As the Worldcoin community celebrates this significant milestone, opportunities abound for individuals to contribute to the project’s progress. Whether it’s joining as a Worldcoin Operator, participating as a community specialist, or signing up for the Software Development Kit (SDK), everyone can play a role in shaping the future of this transformative initiative.
