Worldcoin, known for its digital identification and cryptocurrency initiatives, has joined forces with Web3 infrastructure platform Alchemy to launch its new blockchain, World Chain.
This collaboration aims to bring real-world utility to a global audience, focusing on decentralized finance (DeFi) and digital identity.
World Chain, introduced in April, is built on Optimism’s OP Stack and integrates with networks like Ethereum and Coinbase.
It is designed with proof of personhood technology to prioritize human users over bots.
Verified users will benefit from preferred blockspace and gas allowances, making the blockchain more efficient and user-friendly.
With Alchemy’s proven Web3 infrastructure, Worldcoin aims to ensure reliable performance and foster community growth.
Alchemy’s solutions will provide essential tools such as data APIs, indexing solutions, and account abstraction infrastructure, crucial for the security of self-custodial wallets.
The partnership is set to scale World Chain to over 10 million users through the World App.
This will enable developers to build applications that offer tangible benefits and enhance daily life for real people.
A developer preview of World Chain is expected soon, allowing projects to begin development ahead of the full launch later this year.
Alchemy’s engineering lead, Noam Hurwitz, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, highlighting Alchemy’s extensive experience in ensuring uptime for major enterprises.
This partnership is poised to deliver robust infrastructure and support developer growth for World Chain.
