Elliptic, the global firm focused on crypto-asset risk management, is pleased to announce the integration of World Chain, a blockchain designed to prioritize humans, into its Holistic suite of screening and investigation compliance solutions.
World Chain is secured by Ethereum as a Layer-2 (L2) and “will be engineered for scalability as part of the Superchain ecosystem.”
This integration underscores Elliptic’s commitment to “providing compliance and analytics solutions across a diverse array of blockchain networks.”
World Chain represents a significant evolution in digital finance, “conceptualized and developed by the innovators behind Worldcoin.”
This blockchain sets itself apart with its human-centric design, “offering verified human users priority blockspace over bots and providing an allowance of gas for casual transactions.”
World Chain’s distinct approach “aligns seamlessly with Elliptic’s vision to safeguard the digital financial landscape. By prioritizing verified human users for blockspace and facilitating the creation of applications aimed at everyday utility, World Chain is poised to revolutionize the DeFi space.”
Integrating World Chain not only “enhances Elliptic’s compliance capabilities, but also empowers developers and users as well.”
Developers building on World Chain can “reach millions of verified users globally, creating applications that provide utility in everyday life.”
At the core of Elliptic’s offering is its Holistic Technology, which is “central to managing the complexities of today’s blockchain ecosystem.”
This technology establishes a new standard “for crypto compliance and risk management by allowing businesses to achieve cross-chain compliance at scale, enabling efficient detection and mitigation of high-risk activities.”
Integrating World Chain further expands this Holistic technology suite, “meaning that organizations will be able to automatically screen Worldcoin wallets and transactions and follow their fund flows in investigations.”
Lukasz Kujawa, VP of Engineering of Elliptic, remarked:
“I’m thrilled to partner with Worldcoin and integrate our innovative anti-money laundering platform. By combining Elliptic’s robust intelligence and cross-chain analysis with World ID’s secure humanness verification, we’re taking a major step forward in proactively preventing money laundering in the crypto space. Together, we’re making cryptocurrency safer and more trustworthy for everyone.”
Remco Bloemen, head of blockchain at Worldcoin Foundation:
“World Chain is designed as a blockchain for humans, and from day one more than 10 million people across 160 countries will be able to explore and use onchain apps through compatible wallets. Blockchain analytics providers, such as Elliptic, will be important to the World Chain network as it continues to scale – and will provide developers with important tools as they build apps focused on utility for everyday life.”
World Chain is a layer-2 network designed to “make blockchain technology and its benefits accessible to everyone.”
Built on the OP Stack and integrated with the Worldcoin protocol, World Chain is secured by Ethereum as an L2 and “will be engineered for scalability as part of the Superchain ecosystem.”
Developed by the Worldcoin Foundation, World Chain will “be uniquely enabled by World ID’s proof of personhood and built around stablecoin finance, international remittances, commerce and more. Anyone will be able to explore and use apps with real world utility on World Chain through compatible wallets, starting with World App.”
The Worldcoin Foundation, a steward of the Worldcoin protocol, “aims to realize more inclusive, fair and just institutions of governance and of the global digital economy.”
