Sam Altman的WorldCoin項目在美國正式推出，向創建世界ID的用戶提供$ WLD代幣

WorldCoin的球體將用於六個發射城市以及Razer商店的物理“世界空間”位置的虹膜掃描。

Sam Altman's digital identity and cryptocurrency initiative, known as Worldcoin, has officially launched in six major U.S. cities.

山姆·奧特曼（Sam Altman）的數字身份和加密貨幣倡議（稱為WorldCoin）已在美國六個主要城市正式啟動。

The project, which uses spherical biometric devices called "Orbs" to scan users' irises and issue unique digital IDs, is now operating in Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, and San Francisco.

該項目使用稱為“ Orb”的球形生物識別設備來掃描用戶的虹膜並發布獨特的數字ID，現在在亞特蘭大，奧斯汀，洛杉磯，邁阿密，納什維爾和舊金山運行。

At these locations, new users who complete an iris scan will receive 16 WLD tokens as an onboarding incentive. Those who previously downloaded and registered with the World App in the U.S. will receive a larger "pioneer grant" of 150 WLD tokens dropped into their wallet.

在這些位置，完成IRIS掃描的新用戶將獲得16個WLD令牌作為入職激勵措施。那些以前在美國下載並在世界應用程序上註冊的人將獲得150個WLD代幣的更大的“先驅贈款”，這些代幣落入了他們的錢包中。

World aims to deploy 7,500 Orbs across the United States by the end of 2025. To support this expansion, the company is constructing a new manufacturing facility in Richardson, Texas, to produce Orbs domestically and reduce supply chain dependencies.

世界的目標是到2025年底在美國各地部署7,500個球體。為了支持這一擴展，該公司正在德克薩斯州的理查森建造一個新的製造工廠，以在國內生產球體並減少供應鏈依賴性。

Several partnerships are also in place to expand the utility of World ID. A partnership with Visa will see a debit card released later this year that converts WLD tokens to fiat currency at checkout points. In the dating space, a partnership with Match Group will see age verification systems piloted on apps like Tinder.

還建立了幾種夥伴關係，以擴大世界ID的實用性。與Visa的合作夥伴關係將在今年晚些時候發布一張借記卡，該卡在結帳點將WLD代幣轉換為法定貨幣。在約會空間中，與Match Group的合作夥伴關係將看到在Tinder等應用程序上試行的年齡驗證系統。

World ID will be added as an account verification option, potentially reducing fake profiles and improving safety. Gaming company Razer has also partnered with World to integrate World ID for player identity verification and account security.

World ID將作為帳戶驗證選項添加，可能會減少偽造的配置文件並提高安全性。遊戲公司Razer還與World合作，將世界ID集成以供玩家身份驗證和帳戶安全。

The company's flagship cryptocurrency, WLD, is currently available for trading on major exchanges such as Coinbase, Binance, and Huobi. It is a token used for governance, staking, and consumption in the Worldcoin economy.

該公司的旗艦加密貨幣WLD目前可在Coinbase，Binance和Huobi等主要交易所進行交易。它是一種用於治理，積累和消費世界局經濟的代幣。

The World App has also undergone major enhancements. Users can now access crypto-backed loans through Morpho, engage in decentralized prediction markets powered by Kalshi, and utilize the newly integrated Visa debit card.

世界應用程序還進行了重大增強。現在，用戶可以通過Morpho訪問加密貨幣支持的貸款，參與由Kalshi提供支持的分散的預測市場，並利用新集成的Visa借記卡。

The company announced these developments at a press event in San Francisco called "At Last," where Sam Altman, chairman of Tools for Humanity, appeared alongside CEO Alex Blania.

該公司在舊金山的一項新聞活動中宣布了這些發展，稱為“終於”，人類工具董事長Sam Altman與首席執行官Alex Blania一起出現。

World's Orbs will be available for iris scans at physical "World Space" locations in the six launch cities, as well as in Razer stores. The company has updated the Orb's physical design and teased a smaller "orb mini" that resembles a smartphone.

在六個發射城市以及Razer商店中的物理“世界空間”位置，將用於世界上的虹膜掃描。該公司已更新了球體的物理設計，並取笑了類似於智能手機的較小的“ Orb Mini”。

To date, World's Orbs have verified 12 million humans from over 100 countries on its Ethereum-based World Chain. This makes it one of the largest crypto projects globally, despite facing regulatory challenges and probes in several countries.

迄今為止，世界上的球體已經通過以太坊的世界連鎖店驗證了來自100多個國家的1200萬人。儘管在幾個國家面臨監管挑戰和調查，但這使其成為全球最大的加密項目之一。

The timing of the U.S. launch appears strategic. Adrian Ludwig, chief architect at Tools for Humanity, noted that regulatory changes influenced their decision to enter the U.S. market now.

美國發射的時機似乎是戰略性的。人類工具工具的首席建築師阿德里安·路德維希（Adrian Ludwig）指出，監管變化影響了他們現在進入美國市場的決定。

Trump administration officials have taken a more favorable stance toward cryptocurrencies compared to the previous administration, opening up opportunities for projects like Worldcoin.

與上屆政府相比，特朗普政府官員對加密貨幣採取了更加有利的立場，為諸如WorldCoin之類的項目打開了機會。

However, despite its growth, World continues to face criticism over its use of sensitive biometric data. Critics argue that even anonymized biometric information could be vulnerable to misuse or breaches.

但是，儘管它增長了，但世界仍在對使用敏感生物識別數據的使用面臨批評。批評家認為，即使是匿名的生物識別信息也可能容易濫用或違規。

Several countries, including Spain, Portugal, Hong Kong, South Korea, and France, have blocked, probed, or fined the project over security and privacy concerns.

包括西班牙，葡萄牙，香港，韓國和法國在內的幾個國家都在安全和隱私問題上封鎖，調查或罰款該項目。

In response, World maintains that it does not store raw biometric data and has implemented advanced cryptographic protections to secure users' personal identifiers. Ludwig emphasized that all biometric data collected is anonymous.

作為回應，世界堅持認為，它不存儲原始的生物識別數據，並且已經實施了高級加密保護措施來保護用戶的個人標識符。路德維希強調，收集的所有生物識別數據都是匿名的。

Regulatory challenges remain a hurdle, especially in the United States. WLD tokens are currently restricted in New York State due to unresolved legal and compliance issues.

監管挑戰仍然是一個障礙，尤其是在美國。由於未解決的法律和合規性問題，紐約州目前在紐約州受到限制。

Altman, who is also CEO of OpenAI, sees World as a solution to problems created by advanced AI. As AI becomes better at mimicking human interaction, tools to verify human identity become more crucial.

Altman也是OpenAI的首席執行官，他將世界視為解決高級AI造成的問題的解決方案。隨著AI在模仿人類互動方面變得更好，驗證人類身份的工具變得更加關鍵。

"It's a way to make sure humans remained central and special in a world where the internet had a lot of AI-driven content," Altman said at the launch event.

Altman在發布會上說：“這是確保人類在互聯網具有很多AI驅動內容的世界中保持中心和特別的方式。”

The company has raised about $200 million from venture capitalists including Andreessen Horowitz and Khosla Ventures, as well as from LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman and FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried.

該公司已從包括Andreessen Horowitz和Khosla Ventures，以及LinkedIn聯合創始人Reid Hoffman和FTX創始人Sam Bankman-Fried中籌集了約2億美元。

Ludwig estimates that in "18 months or so we will begin to see the costs of operating the network begin to be offset by the fees that are generated by the network."

路德維希（Ludwig）估計，“在18個月左右的時間裡，我們將開始看到運營網絡的成本開始被網絡產生的費用所抵消。”

Until then, World remains unprofitable as it builds out its infrastructure and user base.

在此之前，世界仍然無利可圖，因為它建立了其基礎架構和用戶群。
