World Assets是世界基金會（以前是WorldCoin）的子公司，已通過將WLD代幣出售給風險投資公司Andreessen Horowitz（A16Z）和Bain Capital Cragerpto籌集了1.35億美元

World Assets, a subsidiary of World Foundation (formerly Worldcoin), has raised $135 million through a strategic sale of WLD tokens to venture firms Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and Bain Capital Crypto. Both firms are early supporters of the fast-growing digital identity initiative.

World Assets是世界基金會（以前是WorldCoin）的子公司，已通過將WLD代幣出售給風險投資公司Andreessen Horowitz（A16Z）和Bain Capital Crypto籌集了1.35億美元。這兩家公司都是快速增長的數字身份計劃的早期支持者。

According to the firm, the tokens were sold at prevailing market prices, which proportionately increased the circulating supply of WLD. World Assets conducts recurring tranche-based token sales to trading firms as part of its operations.

據該公司稱，代幣以現行市場價格出售，這比例增加了WLD的循環供應。世界資產作為其運營的一部分，對貿易公司進行了反復出現的代幣銷售。

Based on CryptoSlate data, WLD was trading at $1.168 as of press time, up nearly 4% over the past 24 hours.

根據印度密板數據，WLD截至發稿時間為1.168美元，在過去的24小時內增長了近4％。

The funding will be used to meet surging demand for Orb-verified World IDs and to expand the World network’s footprint across the US and globally. The transaction follows earlier fundraising rounds backed by investors such as Selini Capital, Mirana Ventures, and Arctic Digital.

這筆資金將用於滿足對Orb驗證的世界ID的需求，並在整個美國和全球範圍內擴大世界網絡的佔地面積。該交易是在Selini Capital，Mirana Ventures和Arctic Digital等投資者支持的早期籌款回合之後。

Scalable solution

可擴展解決方案

World’s central premise is that as AI continues to evolve rapidly, establishing proof of personhood will be critical to maintaining trust, governance, and economic participation in digital systems.

世界的主要前提是，隨著人工智能繼續迅速發展，建立人格證明對於維持信任，治理和對數字系統的經濟參與至關重要。

The company’s core product, World ID, uses biometric verification via its proprietary Orb devices to issue decentralized identity credentials. These IDs allow users to verify their humanity without revealing personal information, a feature the company says will be crucial in mitigating AI-driven fraud, spam, and identity theft.

該公司的核心產品World ID使用其專有ORB設備使用生物識別驗證來發布分散的身份證書。這些ID允許用戶在不透露個人信息的情況下驗證其人性，該公司表示，該功能對於緩解AI驅動的欺詐，垃圾郵件和身份盜竊至關重要。

To date, more than 12.5 million people have received an Orb-verified World ID, and the total user base of the World network has exceeded 26 million.

迄今為止，超過1,250萬人收到了驗證的世界ID，世界網絡的總用戶群超過2600萬。

The company said the funding will accelerate Orb deployment, bolster infrastructure, and improve accessibility to World IDs, particularly in underrepresented regions where digital verification tools remain scarce.

該公司表示，資金將加速ORB部署，加強基礎設施並提高對世界ID的可訪問性，尤其是在代表性不足的地區，數字驗證工具仍然稀缺的地區。

Self-sustaining protocol

自我維持的協議

Unlike traditional ID systems run by states or corporations, World aims to become a self-sustaining, decentralized protocol.

與國家或公司運營的傳統ID系統不同，世界的目標是成為一種自我維持的，分散的協議。

The organization has indicated that revenue from protocol-level fees and related services could eventually support network operations, allowing it to scale without perpetual dependence on external capital.

該組織表明，協議級費用和相關服務的收入最終可以支持網絡操作，從而使其可以擴展而不會永久依賴外部資本。

While the project has faced regulatory scrutiny over its biometric data collection practices in some jurisdictions, its backers maintain that the protocol’s approach offers a transparent, privacy-preserving alternative to centralized identity systems.

儘管該項目在某些司法管轄區對其生物識別數據收集實踐進行了監管審查，但其支持者堅持認為，該協議的方法為集中式身份系統提供了透明，具有隱私性的替代方案。

The renewed support from a16z and Bain highlights growing confidence among venture capitalists that decentralized identity may play a foundational role in the coming AI-dominated era.

A16Z和Bain的新支持強調了風險投資家的信心越來越多，即分散身份可能在即將到來的AI主導時代發揮基礎。

The World Foundation framed this funding round as a step toward operational growth and a philosophical bet on the need for human-centric verification systems in an increasingly automated world.

世界基金會將這一資金構成了邁向運營增長的一步，並在日益自動化的世界中對以人為中心的驗證系統進行了哲學上的賭注。
