世界币基金会将其身份验证技术扩展到奥地利

世界币基金会正在将其世界 ID“orb”验证扩展到奥地利，继续努力在整个欧洲提供服务。

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

加密货币项目 Worldcoin 正在继续其欧洲扩张，并在奥地利最新集成了其身份 (ID) 验证技术。

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.”

根据 7 月 31 日的公告，维也纳的多个地点现在将托管 Worldcoin 的球体，使 18 岁及以上的人能够获得唯一的数字 ID。该基金会强调，它已经在德国提供被称为“身份证明”的身份验证服务，并补充说，扩展到奥地利是由于“世界其他国家的持续兴趣和增长”。

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.

世界币的人格证明是通过设备（球体）扫描人们的虹膜来生成的，创建一个独特的生物识别标识符，以确保每个参与者都是一个独特的人。作为扫描虹膜的交换，人们将收到少量 Worldcoin 的原生代币 Wordlcoin (WLD)，其方式旨在公平分配代币。

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.

尽管世界币努力进行国际扩张，但它在多个地区仍因数据隐私问题而面临阻力。 5 月下旬，香港个人数据私隐专员公署裁定 Worldcoin 违反了香港的个人数据条例，对该项目处理生物识别数据的方式带来了隐私风险。

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.

在给 crypto.news 的一份声明中，该项目表达了失望，声称该组织合法运营并完全遵守所有相关的数据隐私法。同样，由于日益增长的隐私问题，葡萄牙和西班牙也在三月份对世界币实施了限制。

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 与 Max Novendstern 和 Alex Blania 于 2019 年创立，并于 2023 年 5 月在 C 轮融资中获得了 1.15 亿美元。该轮融资由 Blockchain Capital 领投，Andreessen Horowitz (a16z)、Bain Capital Crypto 参投。和分布式全球。
