World consists of a privacy-preserving digital identity network (World ID) built on proof of personhood and, where laws allow, a digital currency (WLD). Every human is eligible for a share of WLD simply for being human. World has built a device called the Orb, which captures an image of a person's eyes and converts it into a short numeric code, making it possible to check if the person has already signed up. If not, they will receive their free share of Worldcoin. The original image will not need to be stored or uploaded.
