- The Worldcoin (WLD)-powered blockchain, World Chain, has finally gone live following an earlier announcement made by the Foundation in April.
- Analysts believe that WLD could return to $10 once the bulls manage to drag the price above the $3 resistance level.
World Chain, the blockchain created by Worldcoin (WLD) has officially gone online. According to reports, this blockchain was created to prioritize real humans over robots. Interestingly, over 15 million users have officially migrated or are in the process of migrating to the new channel.
Our investigation shows that this development would address several existing shortcomings, including network congestion and high fees. According to their announcement, this launch would allow developers to unlock new opportunities and accelerate financial inclusion initiatives in places where crypto provides important financial tools.
World Chain allows developers to reach the largest base of verified human users, opening up new possibilities for financial applications and other on-chain services.
What is global channel
The initial announcement of this groundbreaking initiative was made in April when the Worldcoin Foundation revealed that this blockchain would be the first of its kind. As stated earlier, the main goal is to combat bots and transactions facilitated by algorithms rather than humans. According to data from Dune Analytics, 80% of all blockchain transactions are carried out by bots, leading to a frustrating user experience.
Our research also shows that the World Chain blockchain would provide many services with the support of major blockchain projects including Uniswap, Optimism, Alchemy and Etherscan. For verified users identified by Worldcoin ID, the system would grant them access to prioritize gas allocations to cover gas costs. In addition to this, the network is targeting a throughput of 5 Mgas/s to ensure that the network remains efficient and inexpensive. Meanwhile, regulatory challenges have been a major concern for the project’s expansion.
Regulatory challenges faced by Worldcoin (WLD)
In March, for example, Spanish authorities asked Worldcoin to stop scanning people’s eyes. Some of the issues of concern raised by authorities in our previous publication included the collection of data from minors, the sensitive nature of the biometric data involved and the level of information it provides about processing. For his part, Thomas Scott, legal director of Tools for Humanity, believes that its commitment is appreciated by the majority, according to his survey in Spain.
While it is encouraging that in a recent survey of World ID users in Spain, more than 80% of 21,000 respondents said they believe that technologies such as World ID are important in distinguishing robots from humans online and that almost 90% of them support the project. Back in Spain, we voluntarily proposed to extend the pause of orb operations in the country. Our engagement demonstrates how Tools for Humanity and all contributors to the Worldcoin project are fully committed to explaining the project to AEPD and giving BayLDA the opportunity to take an in-depth look at the project and its technology.
Following the launch of World Chain and the recent name change to ‘World’, as we reported, WLD has seen an impressive increase in sales. 9% over the past 24 hours to trade at $2.4. According to analysts, the asset could retest its $10 price once it overcomes the $3 resistance level.
