World launched a "super app," adding cryptocurrency payments and end-to-end encrypted chat functionality.
according to TechCrunch, that World, a decentralized biometric authentication project co-founded by Sam Altman, has released the latest version of its application, introducing multiple new features, including end-to-end encrypted chat integration and Venmo-like cryptocurrency sending and receiving functions.
The new version of the app is called a "super app" by the development team, with the World Chat feature using end-to-end encryption technology, providing a security level equivalent to Signal, and using colored chat bubbles to indicate whether the conversation partner has been verified through the World system. This feature aims to encourage users to verify their identities, allowing users to confirm the real identity of their chat partners.
In terms of digital payments, the new version expands cryptocurrency sending and receiving functions, enabling users to directly receive salaries through virtual bank accounts and make deposits from bank accounts, all of which can be converted into cryptocurrency. Using these payment functions does not require going through World’s identity verification system.
