World Chain is a new blockchain designed for humans. Verified humans will get priority blockspace over bots and an allowance of gas for casual transactions. Developers will be able to reach millions of these real users around the world, with apps focused on utility for everyday life. The network will be deeply integrated with the Worldcoin Protocol to accelerate growth and leverage World ID’s Proof of Personhood. It will also be secured by Ethereum as an L2 and engineered for scalability alongside the Superchain ecosystem. Importantly, it will be permissionless, open source, and intended to ultimately be independently governed by the community. World Chain is expected to launch later this summer.

For World Chain to succeed, it must be built, owned, and governed by all of humanity. From day one, it will be open source, permissionless, and Ethereum aligned. It will also be built with the Superchain ecosystem, joining Optimism, Base, Zora and others.
