Worldcoin, a digital identification platform and cryptocurrency project, has partnered with Web3 infrastructure platform Alchemy to launch its new blockchain, World Chain.

World Chain: Bringing Real-World Utility

The new blockchain aims to provide real-world utility, focusing on decentralized finance (DeFi) and digital identity. Worldcoin will utilize Alchemy’s Web3 infrastructure to ensure reliability and community-driven growth.

A Blockchain for Humans

In April this year, World Coin announced the launch of World Chain, highlighting it as a blockchain optimized for human use. Built on Optimism’s OP Stack, the platform integrates with Ethereum, Coinbase, and other networks in the Superchain.

World Chain’s proof of personhood technology is designed to deter bots, prioritizing verified users for blockspace and gas allowance. This approach allows developers to reach millions of real people with applications that enhance everyday life.

Targeting 10 Million Users

The partnership with Alchemy enables World Chain to scale, aiming to reach over 10 million users on World App. Developers will access data APIs, indexing solutions, and other tools to create apps for global use.

Among these tools is account abstraction infrastructure, crucial for the security and safety of self-custodial wallets.

“We’re excited to partner with Worldcoin to deliver essential infrastructure and foster developer growth for World Chain,” Noam Hurwitz, engineering lead at Alchemy, said. “With over six years of proven experience ensuring guaranteed uptime for major web2 and web3 enterprises, Alchemy is uniquely positioned to support the over 10M World App users at launch,” he added.

Worldcoin plans to release a developer preview for World Chain soon, allowing projects to begin building ahead of the chain’s full launch later this year.
