世界币推出以人为本的第二层区块链

Worldcoin 是 OpenAI 创始人 Sam Altman 发起的一项倡议，正在推出 World Chain，这是一种基于以太坊的第 2 层区块链。该区块链旨在优先考虑经过身份验证的人类，而不是人工智能和交易算法。通过世界币的“orb”设备验证身份的用户将享受诸如降低费用、更快的交易和优先区块空间等好处。 World Chain 将在 OP Stack 框架内运行，与直接以太坊交易相比，费用更便宜，速度更快。这种向独立区块链的转变为项目提供了更大的控制力和选择性，同时可能降低用户的成本。

New York City, NY - Worldcoin, the crypto startup founded by OpenAI's Sam Altman, has announced the launch of a layer-2 Ethereum blockchain. The new chain, dubbed World Chain, will prioritize verified humans over artificial intelligence (AI) bots and trading algorithms, aiming to reduce the growing influence of automation on blockchain networks.

纽约 - 由 OpenAI 的 Sam Altman 创立的加密初创公司 Worldcoin 宣布推出第二层以太坊区块链。这条新链被称为“世界链”，将优先考虑经过验证的人类，而不是人工智能（AI）机器人和交易算法，旨在减少自动化对区块链网络日益增长的影响。

Background: Worldcoin's Mission

背景：世界币的使命

Worldcoin is a blockchain network focused on decentralizing the future and enabling universal access to the digital economy. The project aims to create a decentralized identity system based on proof of personhood, ensuring that each account is associated with a unique human being.

世界币是一个专注于未来去中心化并实现数字经济普遍接入的区块链网络。该项目旨在创建一个基于人格证明的去中心化身份系统，确保每个帐户都与一个独特的人相关联。

World Chain: A Layer-2 Solution

世界链：第 2 层解决方案

World Chain is a layer-2 network built on top of Ethereum using Optimism's OP Stack framework. Layer-2 solutions are designed to alleviate congestion and reduce transaction fees on the main Ethereum blockchain by bundling transactions and processing them off-chain.

World Chain 是使用 Optimism 的 OP Stack 框架构建在以太坊之上的第 2 层网络。第 2 层解决方案旨在通过捆绑交易并进行链下处理来缓解主以太坊区块链上的拥塞并降低交易费用。

World Chain will offer significantly reduced fees for users compared to directly transacting on Ethereum. By prioritizing transactions submitted by verified humans, the network aims to mitigate the surge in bot activity that has driven up fees on other blockchains.

与直接在以太坊上进行交易相比，世界链将为用户提供显着降低的费用。通过优先考虑经过验证的人类提交的交易，该网络旨在缓解机器人活动的激增，从而推高其他区块链的费用。

Iris-Scanning Technology and Verified Humans

虹膜扫描技术和经过验证的人类

Worldcoin is known for its unique iris-scanning technology, which is used to create a "World ID" digital passport for each user. This process ensures that account holders are real people and prevents bots or multiple accounts from being created.

世界币以其独特的虹膜扫描技术而闻名，该技术用于为每个用户创建“世界ID”数字护照。此过程可确保帐户持有人是真实的人，并防止创建机器人或多个帐户。

On World Chain, verified humans will enjoy priority block space, ensuring faster transaction processing times. This prioritization will enhance the usability and accessibility of blockchain applications for legitimate users.

在世界链上，经过验证的人类将享有优先的区块空间，确保更快的交易处理时间。这种优先顺序将增强合法用户的区块链应用程序的可用性和可访问性。

Addressing Privacy Concerns

解决隐私问题

Worldcoin's iris-scanning technology has raised privacy concerns among some. However, the company emphasizes that the data collected is encrypted and not stored centrally, minimizing the risk of misuse.

世界币的虹膜扫描技术引起了一些人的隐私担忧。不过，该公司强调，收集的数据是加密的，而不是集中存储，从而最大限度地降低了滥用的风险。

The project has also implemented additional privacy-enhancing features and has taken steps to address concerns raised in a critical MIT Technology Review exposé.

该项目还实施了额外的隐私增强功能，并采取措施解决《麻省理工学院技术评论》关键披露中提出的问题。

Growing Adoption and Integration

不断增长的采用和集成

Despite initial skepticism, Worldcoin has gained significant traction, onboarding over 10 million users in 167 countries. The project's World App integrates with popular crypto protocols and offers exclusive functionality to orb-scanned users.

尽管最初受到质疑，世界币还是获得了巨大的关注，在 167 个国家拥有超过 1000 万用户。该项目的 World App 与流行的加密协议集成，并为球体扫描的用户提供专有功能。

Worldcoin is the second-largest protocol on OP Chain by transaction volume, with its WLD token boasting the largest market cap on the chain behind ETH and OP.

按交易量计算，Worldcoin 是 OP 链上第二大协议，其 WLD 代币拥有链上最大的市值，仅次于 ETH 和 OP。

Benefits of World Chain

世界链的好处

World Chain offers several benefits:

World Chain 具有多项优势：

• Reduced fees: Layer-2 architecture provides significantly lower transaction fees compared to Ethereum.
• Prioritization of humans: Verified human users receive priority block space, ensuring faster transaction processing.
• Built-in bot-vetting: The network's design mitigates the impact of bots and trading algorithms, preventing them from clogging the chain.
• Integration with other wallets: World ID will be compatible with wallets beyond World App, enabling other applications to integrate verified human identity.
• First-class currency status for WLD: WLD becomes a first-class currency alongside ETH, usable for paying network fees.

Future Outlook

降低费用：与以太坊相比，第 2 层架构提供的交易费用显着降低。人类优先级：经过验证的人类用户获得优先区块空间，确保更快的交易处理。内置机器人审查：网络的设计减轻了机器人和交易的影响与其他钱包集成：World ID 将与 World App 以外的钱包兼容，使其他应用程序能够集成经过验证的人类身份。 WLD 的一流货币地位：WLD 成为一流货币ETH，可用于支付网络费用。未来展望

The launch of World Chain is a significant milestone for Worldcoin. It allows the project to scale its user base, reduce costs for users, and further embed its focus on verified human identity into the blockchain ecosystem.

世界链的推出对于世界币来说是一个重要的里程碑。它使该项目能够扩大其用户群，降低用户成本，并将其对经过验证的人类身份的关注进一步嵌入到区块链生态系统中。

With the rise of AI and the increasing influence of automation on the internet, World Chain's prioritization of human users is a timely and necessary step towards ensuring the accessibility and integrity of blockchain networks.

随着人工智能的兴起以及自动化对互联网影响力的不断增强，World Chain 优先考虑人类用户是确保区块链网络的可访问性和完整性的及时且必要的一步。
