About Worldcoin
Worldcoin (WLD) is a cryptocurrency and digital identity project co-founded by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman with the ambitious goal of creating a global identity and financial network. The project uses an iris-scanning device called the Orb to create unique 'World IDs' — cryptographic proofs of personhood that verify someone is a real, unique human without revealing their identity. Verified humans receive a share of WLD tokens as a form of universal basic income. Worldcoin launched on the Optimism network in 2023 and has scanned millions of irises globally, drawing both significant interest for its AI-era identity solution and controversy over privacy implications.

How to Swap WLD
Swapping Worldcoin (WLD) on SyntheticSwap requires no registration or KYC. WLD operates across multiple chains including Ethereum, making it compatible with MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Ledger, and most major Web3 wallets. Open SyntheticSwap, select WLD as your source or destination asset, enter your receiving wallet address, and confirm the floating rate. After sending WLD to the provided deposit address, the destination asset is delivered directly to your wallet. No personal information is ever collected — fully non-custodial.
How to Store WLD
WLD is an ERC-20 token on Optimism (Ethereum Layer 2). MetaMask configured for the Optimism network, Trust Wallet, Ledger hardware wallets, and the official World App all support WLD. The World App is the primary interface for World ID holders to receive and manage WLD grants.
