Blania said World\u00a0will triple its production capacity and expand into new countries, including flagship locations in Buenos Aires and Mexico City.<\/p>\n<p>The updated Orbs will be made available in public spaces such as cafes and will even be deliverable on demand, part of a wider effort to make verification more accessible.\u00a0The rollout of these new Orbs is expected by spring 2025.<\/p>\n<h2>World Chain and digital identity<\/h2>\n<p>Alongside the expansion of its biometric capabilities, World officially launched World Chain, a Layer 2 blockchain built on the Ethereum network.<\/p>\n<p>The blockchain is designed to support millions of users. On its first day, the project claimed 15 million registrations globally. According to the company, this makes World Chain one of the largest human verification blockchains in existence.<\/p>\n<p>The World App, a central component of the project, is being updated to Version 3.0. This update will allow users to manage their World ID credentials and access other services, such as World Pay, a decentralized payment system, and World Chat, a messaging tool.<\/p>\n<p>The app will also introduce games and a messaging system called World Chat to further engage users and onboard more participants.\u00a0Altman, who also leads <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/openai\/\">OpenAI<\/a>, said World aims to be &#8220;the anonymous human layer for the internet,&#8221; helping people distinguish themselves from AI actors.<\/p>\n<p>He further\u00a0emphasized the growing importance of human identity verification as AI continues to advance.
