The Worldcoin Foundation has been formed to promote, protect and to ensure long-term adoption and sustainability of Worldcoin as a global currency.
In order for Worldcoin to succeed as a currency, we realized it was necessary to have a foundation set up to provide legitimacy to the coin. We aim to provide a voice for the community to the developers and maintainers of Worldcoin, as well as a platform to help disseminate news and information about it. It will rely on donations to keep running--those funds will be allocated to projects which can help Worldcoin advance as a currency. This will be done in a transparent fashion, with transactions available for all to see.
As Worldcoin is an open-source currency, it is important that everything regarding it be transparent. We will keep the community updated with all things Worldcoin to ensure questions are answered in a timely fashion. The site will be a hub for news and information about Worldcoin as it becomes available.
