世界幣基金會將其身分驗證技術擴展到奧地利

世界幣基金會正在將其世界 ID「orb」驗證擴展到奧地利，繼續努力在整個歐洲提供服務。

Cryptocurrency project Worldcoin is continuing its European expansion with the latest integration of its identity (ID) verification technology in Austria.

加密貨幣專案 Worldcoin 正在繼續其歐洲擴張，並在奧地利最新整合了其身分識別 (ID) 驗證技術。

According to a July 31 announcement, several locations in Vienna will now host Worldcoin’s orbs, enabling people aged 18 and above to obtain a unique digital ID. The foundation highlighted that it already provides ID verification services, known as “proof of personhood,” in Germany, adding that the expansion into Austria is due to “continued interest and growth in other countries around the world.”

根據 7 月 31 日的公告，維也納的多個地點現在將託管 Worldcoin 的球體，使 18 歲及以上的人能夠獲得唯一的數位 ID。該基金會強調，它已經在德國提供被稱為「身份證明」的身份驗證服務，並補充說，擴展到奧地利是由於「世界其他國家的持續興趣和增長」。

Worldcoin’s proof of personhood is generated by having a device — the orb — scan people’s irises, creating a unique biometric identifier to ensure that each participant is a distinct human being. In exchange for having their irises scanned, people will receive a small amount of Worldcoin’s native token, Wordlcoin (WLD), in an approach designed to distribute the tokens fairly.

世界幣的人格證明是透過設備（球體）掃描人們的虹膜來產生的，創建一個獨特的生物識別標識符，以確保每個參與者都是一個獨特的人。作為掃描虹膜的交換，人們將收到少量 Worldcoin 的原生代幣 Wordlcoin (WLD)，其方式旨在公平分配代幣。

Despite its international expansion efforts, Worldcoin has faced pushback in several regions over data privacy concerns. In late May, Hong Kong’s Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data ruled that Worldcoin contravened the city’s personal data ordinance, posing risks to privacy associated with the way the project handles biometric data.

儘管世界幣努力進行國際擴張，但它在多個地區仍因數據隱私問題而面臨阻力。 5 月下旬，香港個人資料私隱專員公署裁定 Worldcoin 違反了香港的個人資料條例，對該專案處理生物辨識資料的方式帶來了隱私風險。

In a statement to crypto.news, the project expressed disappointment, asserting that the organization operates lawfully and complies fully with all relevant data privacy laws. Similarly, Portugal and Spain also imposed restrictions on Worldcoin in March due to growing privacy concerns.

在給 crypto.news 的聲明中，該專案表達了失望，聲稱該組織合法運作並完全遵守所有相關的資料隱私法。同樣，由於日益增長的隱私問題，葡萄牙和西班牙也在三月對世界幣實施了限制。

Worldcoin — founded in 2019 by OpenAI’s Sam Altman, alongside Max Novendstern and Alex Blania — secured $115 million in a Series C funding round in May 2023. The round was led by Blockchain Capital, with participation from Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Bain Capital Crypto and Distributed Global.

Worldcoin 由OpenAI 的Sam Altman 與Max Novendstern 和Alex Blania 於2019 年創立，並於2023 年5 月在C 輪融資中獲得了1.15 億美元。 Capital Crypto 參投。
