finally received my Orb!
scanning your eyeball to prove you’re human onchain. the identity layer for every human on earth is being built in real time.
thanks @worldnetwork@sama@alexblania
The collaboration we announced with @okta at Lift Off was built around a simple idea: AI agents need a trusted connection with the humans they serve.
Excited to continue working together to make identity, accountability, and trust foundational to the agentic web.
Humans only. No bots.
We’ve partnered with @worldnetwork to put fans first.
🎟️Verified World ID = 2-for-1 tickets

We are moving from a majority of humans with a few bots to a majority of bots with a few humans. World ID is the layer that makes sure humans don't get drowned out.
@tiagosada, @wangandy, and @tawandamahere (@worldcoin / @tfh_technology) join Stateful, hosted by @masonnystrom.
In this episode, they discuss how World ID is redefining internet identity:
- 40 million people onboarded, 18 million Orb-verified. Orb On Demand launching now
- Agent Kit: your agent books flights, makes purchases, and acts on your behalf with a verified human in the loop
- Why blocking all bots is the wrong answer and how World ID separates good agents from bad actors
- World ID vs Face ID: one person with 1,000 phones fools Face ID. They cannot fool World ID
- Anonymous by design: zero-knowledge proofs answer only one question. Are you a real and unique human?

Test out our new World ID App and let us know what you think!
World ID puts humans first on the internet; from dating and live events to gaming, social media and more.
Use the dedicated World ID to prove you are a unique human, without revealing anything else about you. If you're already verified, you can have a seamless transition to the new app.
Excited to keep building Proof of Human with this community!

The biggest differentiator between a mid-level and a staff/architect engineer isn't coding speed, it's the ability to navigate trade-offs! ⚖️
This infographic from the "Mobile System Design Interview" book is a perfect example of the deep-dive content you'll find inside. 👇
Introducing ToolRouter: one MCP endpoint for tools your agent can actually trust.
It helps delegated agents discover AgentKit boosts like free Exa trials and Verified Browserbase sessions, tests x402 endpoints before agents spend, and gives developers simple API key billing and management.
The new World flagship in Munich is officially open to humans.
This community space near Marienplatz is built to answer one question: how do you prove you're human online in a privacy-preserving way?
Come find out in person.
Short demo bringing @worldnetwork AgentKit-backed HITL approvals to @OpenClaw 🦞
Keep powerful agent tools usable, but require human proof before protected actions, you know even claws need human hand sometimes 😅

Fun lore: I've been to North Korea before but never South Korea
Changing that this week with the @worldbuildlabs offsite
If you are in Korea and interested in building on World, hmu!
It's increasingly clear the next internet economy will require a human trust layer.
Today’s internet was built for humans browsing interfaces and seeing ads. Tomorrow’s internet will be mostly agents executing intents on our behalf.
Humans compare products, browse websites, and enter card details manually but 1 agent can search 1000x more pages than a human automatically at machine speed.
That breaks basic assumptions the internet was built on: humans are present, all bots are malicious and payments are human-initiated.
3 themes that will shape agentic commerce:
- Online advertising breaks if platforms can’t distinguish real humans from autonomous agents and bots
- Delegated human-to-agent authority becomes critical for trust, liability, and payment approvals
- Payments move from human approvals to policy-driven execution by autonomous agents 🧵
