Wormhole Integrates World ID into solana with New Grant
Wormhole received a grant from the Worldcoin Foundation to bring World ID to the Solana blockchain. This integration aims to improve user identity procedures on blockchain networks through the use of Worldcoin’s decentralized identity solution.
Wormhole integrates World ID into Solana
Wormhole, which enables data and asset transfer between different blockchains, will integrate Worldcoin’s World ID into the Solana ecosystem. This partnership will enable thousands of developers to integrate World ID to authenticate users in the Solana ecosystem.
In the latest announcement by the Worldcoin Foundation, this integration will use the Ethereum to Solana Government Bridge Service to ensure that World ID’s authentication functions are enabled on the Solana blockchain without compromising security and performance.
This is expected to improve the authentication process as it will be easier and more secure across various blockchains. This integration involves using Wormhole to publish World ID state roots from Ethereum to Solana; so through a smart contract, a private contract in Solana will verify and store these roots to enable Solana-based applications to easily authenticate people.
Technical Details and Expectations
Therefore, the technical aspect of this integration includes the following features that make it efficient and secure. SolanaWorldIDProgram, a new smart contract in Solana, will play an important role in controlling and storing World ID state roots.
Additionally, Wormhole Queries will be used to verify proofs of inclusion, which will be a safe way to retrieve data from other chains until Solana’s bn254 system call is introduced.
This integration increases the security and interoperability of digital identity verification and provides application developers with opportunities to create new applications for verifying human identity. With the help of the Worldcoin Foundation, Wormhole plans to create a new level of privacy-centric cross-chain identity verification.
Worldcoin Adopts Enhanced Privacy Measures
In response to growing concerns from international regulatory authorities, Worldcoin has implemented a number of privacy measures that give users greater control over their data while at the same time not compromising the integrity of the network.
Some of the current features include Personal Custody and Unverified World ID, which uses ZKPs for secure and private transactions. This strategic upgrade is a preemptive action to reduce privacy issues and thus highlights Worldcoin’s commitment to user privacy and privacy-preserving technologies.
Additionally, Worldcoin entered into a strategic collaboration with Alchemy for the development of the World Chain project in order to strengthen its infrastructure. This partnership allows Worldcoin to leverage Alchemy’s well-developed technical platform and a set of tools for developers to support the expansion and growth of the World Chain project.
Meanwhile, following the announcement, Worldcoin (WLD) price rebounded and rose to an intraday high of $2.83 before encountering resistance. At press time, WLD was trading at $2.79, up 1.13% from the support level.
Simultaneously, Solana (SOL) experienced an uptrend, with the price changing hands at $148.07, up 9.11%. However, this rally is not only attributed to the World ID integration but also to the VanEck implementation of the Solana ETF.
