For those who couldn’t make it, here’s what was announced @worldnetwork Lift Off (April 17, San Francisco):
World ID 4.0 - Full protocol rewrite. Account-based architecture with multi-key support, key rotation, session management. One-time nullifiers for unlinkability across apps.
Standalone World ID App - New app separate from @useworldapp wallet, just for managing credentials and authenticators. Public beta now.
Selfie Check - New low-friction verification tier. Three levels now: Orb (high), Official ID/NFC (medium), Selfie (low).
AgentKit - Developer toolkit for AI agents w/ @CoinbaseDev. Agent delegation (users can delegate World ID to agents), human-in-the-loop approvals, agentic commerce. @wangandy demoed agentic commerce on stage.
Major Partnerships:
• @Tinder - Global rollout, verified human badges
• @Zoom - Deep Face integration for video auth
• @Docusign - World ID for signature verification
• Razer - Gaming ID verification
• @okta - “Human Principal” product for APIs
• @vercel - Human-in-the-loop SDK
• @Shopify - Agentic commerce demo
• @browserbase, Exa, AWS, VanEck
Concert Kit - Verified-human ticketing, works with @Ticketmaster/@Eventbrite. Bruno Mars and 30 Seconds to Mars tours using it.
Fee-based model - Apps pay per verification now. Moving away from token-centric incentives.
@alexblania missed the event (emergency hand surgery). @sama opened, @tiagosada and Daniel Shorr did most of the product reveals. Alex, @tawandamahere, and Zoom CEO Eric Yuan did a live Zoom demo where a deepfake of Alex was on the call and real Alex proved himself using World ID from his hospital bed.
A few weeks ago this was a fork of @Morpho Blue. Today it's a live two-sided lending market for tokenized gold on @worldnetwork, inside the Real Assets mini app.
Earn side open. Borrow side rolling out.
Real permissionless DeFi, where the users are.
Don't sell your gold. Borrow against it. Or earn on idle USDC.
Borrow & Earn is now in Real Assets on @worldnetwork, our own permissionless market on @Morpho Blue.
Earn is live. Borrow rolling out. No selling, no tax event, repay anytime.

HumanSpaces S1E10: Builders in Production
Anyone can launch a demo. Production is where the real builders are revealed.
This episode explores what changes when products move from concepts and test environments into systems used by real people every day. Reliability, support, infrastructure, scaling, and trust become part of the product itself
Lucas, Founder of @10xtradingapp, joins us to discuss what it really takes to move from building to operating in production
If you’re building apps, infrastructure, marketplaces, AI systems, or anything meant to scale beyond a prototype, this conversation matters

HumanSpaces S1E9: Trust in Transactions
HumanSpaces S1E9: Trust in Transactions
Most products today can move money. That part is solved.
What’s still missing is trust. Who’s on the other side, and what actually happens if something goes wrong
This episode gets into how escrow and verification become part of the product itself. Not a layer on top, but something built directly into the transaction
Morgan (@carnegie_felon), Co-Founder of @hopscotch_trade, joins us to break down what they’ve built and what’s coming next as their mini app launches on World in two weeks
If you’re building marketplaces, services, or anything where money changes hands, this is core infrastructure

Flew out for @worldnetwork Lift Off. The announcements were big. The energy was bigger. The Humans Only concert was the cherry on top. Good to connect with the team & fellow builders face to face @0xgioser@lay2000lbs@wangandy@tiagosada

HumanSpaces S1E7: Instaclaw on World
Topic: Personal AI agents
Focus: Instaclaw, Proof of Human, simple setup
Outcome: Moving from using apps to owning agents that can run and earn
In this episode, we’re sitting down with Cooper Wrenn @coopwrenn to talk about what he’s built with Instaclaw @instaclaws and why it matters. He’s making it possible for anyone to spin up their own AI agent in minutes, tied to a real human identity on World.
This isn’t just another tool. It’s a shift. Instead of downloading apps and figuring things out piece by piece, you have something that can operate for you, learn over time, and create real value in the background.

@FWBtweets@lay2000lbs The best part of this doc - "We live in the time when it's possible to build anything and not everything has been built yet." This is a gift for builders!!!
