The New World Needs Proof of Personhood

  • Summary

  • Since 2020, CoinFund’s investment thesis in World – formerly Worldcoin – has been driven by the idea that biometric proof of personhood is critical for identity verification.

    While World was met with criticism in the summer of 2023 for its iris-scanning orbs, today, it’s become clear that amid the rapid expansion of AI, identifying who’s human and who’s not will play an important role in payments, social media, elections, and more.

    Alex Blania, CEO of Tools for Humanity – the company behind World – sat down with CoinFund CEO Jake Brukhman to discuss World’s approach to proof of personhood, its emerging ecosystem of projects, and why identity verification is an urgent problem to address. They discuss:

    • From Worldcoin to World (2:45)
    • Building on World Chain (7:36)
    • Distributing identity (24:08)
    • Why proof of personhood (28:55)
    • The underlying rails for adoption (41:58)
