World (Worldcoin) has launched its World ID Passport Credential feature in Chile, Colombia, Malaysia, and South Korea. This significant advancement allows users to integrate NFC passports into their World ID without sharing personal information with any third parties.
The new feature not only ensures high privacy and security but also significantly expands access to the global World Network. Notably, users can earn additional WLD tokens in eligible regions.
Currently, users who verify their World ID through an Orb device can receive 51.69 WLD. Those who add a Verified Passport Credential will receive additional WLD rewards, regardless of Orb verification status. However, the total WLD rewards will decrease over time.
This is considered a breakthrough for Worldcoin in combining blockchain technology with identity verification, promising to unlock new applications in the future.
