World, the company behind the digital identity network, sold $135 million in WLD tokens to investors including Andreessen Horowitz and Bain Capital Crypto. This funding will help expand the World Network across the US and globally, focusing on infrastructure for World IDs to authenticate users online. As AI advances, the need to distinguish humans from machines becomes critical. Over 26 million individuals have used the World Network, with 12.5 million having created a World ID by scanning their irises. The initiative plans to launch in major US cities like Atlanta and San Francisco, offering token rewards for users who prove their identity. Supported by significant backers, World aims to be a self-sustaining protocol.
