The global project focused on digital identity and finance, Worldcoin (WLD), has recently introduced World ID 2.0 in Singapore, in the latest sign of growing global interest in proof of personhood and the Worldcoin project, allowing users to verify their humanness at an Orb.
<a href="https://worldcoin.org/blog/announcements/singapore-launch-user-growth-expansions-landmark-year-worldcoin" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">According to the official statement from Worldcoin</a>, the introduction of World ID 2.0 in Singapore comes after the successful launch of the tool and the subsequent open-sourcing of the Worldcoin iris recognition pipeline in mid-December.
Users in Singapore can now undergo World ID verifications through the Orb, a custom hardware device developed by the Worldcoin project. The official statement also directs users to the Worldcoin Orb locations page for a full list of verification locations
Notably, Tools for Humanity (TFH), a contributor to the Worldcoin project, has recently become a member of two esteemed startup and tech associations in Singapore—ACCESS and the Singapore Fintech Association (SFA). This aligns with the project’s commitment to expanding its presence and fostering collaboration within the tech and fintech communities.
Beyond Singapore, World ID verifications have expanded globally over the past month. Spanish cities such as Sevilla and Bilbao have joined others like Malaga, Mallorca, and Madrid. In Germany, new launches in Cologne and Leipzig have increased the number of cities with Orb locations to four, including Berlin and Nuremberg.

Argentina achieved a new national record with over 10,000 verifications in a single day. In Japan, the city of Fukuoka on Kyushu Island has joined Tokyo as a location for proof of personhood verification via World ID.
