Sharing a screenshot from something I built for the @ethglobal Superhack Hackathon last week.

I believe a privacy-preserving "Proof of Personhood" represents a lot of new opportunities, not only in Web3, but on the web.

I know the Worldcoin Orb freaks people out, but it's an open source, highly reliable solution to the bot issue. Being able to use Zero-Knowledge proofs to verify personhood on-chain unlocks so many possibilities.

Trustless and permissionless exchange between people.

The latest "Bad Bot Report" stated that nearly 50% of all internet traffic came from bots in 2022. PoP might just be the thing that cuts through the noise, introduces accountability, and allows Web3 to fulfill its potential.

    That’s really helpful, thanks. Will certainly give it a go in a couple of months

      How’s it going with the little’n? Anything that you have been pleasantly surprised by or things you thought might be different?

        Great idea. Personally hesitant on signing up to Worldcoin so far but agree that it has powerful potential.
        P.s the design is really lovely and simple in the screenshot.

            I wonder if it is possible to have a decentralised identity solution that doesn't require biometrics

                I do appreciate that Worldcoin is trying to solve the sybil issue, I think they should have gone with a model where you can opt-in similar how we use Apple Face ID
