World Foundation secures $52.5M funding round
The World Foundation raised $52.5 million in a one-year-locked private token sale led by Pantera Capital, with Bain Capital Crypto, Eightco Holdings, Selini Capital, and Susquehanna Crypto among the investors, to scale its World ID proof-of-human system. The funds will expand World ID across enterprises, consumers, and AI agents amid growing reliance on biometric-cryptographic identity, despite ongoing regulatory scrutiny of iris-scanning technology.
