Worldcoin WLD tokens have jumped 25% in the past hours to extend weekly gains to almost 50%, with growth through metrics and portfolio users and a new engineering partner for the anonymized multi -party calculation system.
University of engineering and technology in Peru (Utec) joined the Worldcoin ampc frame, becoming the last academic operator alongside the Kaist of South Korea, the decentralized intelligence group responsible for the Berkeley UC and others, according to an update last week.
The addition has extended the scope of Worldcoin to Latin America and has strengthened the decentralization of its verification architecture.
AMPLC – Abbreviation of anonymized multipartite calculation – was introduced in May as a confidentiality upgrade for orbs checks. Instead of storing or comparing IRIS codes in clear text, the system processes the data locally, divides it into quantified fragments and distributes it on independent nodes.
Each node only manages partial information and the network publishes a simple binary result indicating whether a user is unique.
The configuration is based on the Nvidia H100 chips on a speed scale. Each node can process up to 50 million uniqueness checks per second, covering the basis of today nearly seven million verified users and leaving room for growth.
Neither the World Foundation nor developer tools for humanity manages nodes directly, a deliberate step towards the remote operations of the founders of the project and propagates surveillance between trusted institutions.
Institutional support for the project was deepened in parallel. Eightco Holdings (Nasdaq: Octo) On Monday, announced a private investment of $ 250 million at $ 1.46 per share to implement what he called a first -rate global cash strategy. $ 20 million additional dollars came from Bitmin thanks to the purchase of separate shares.
The profits will be used to acquire WLD, with the token ready to become an active reserve of Eightco.
The Tour was led by Mozayyx with the participation of the World Foundation, Discovery Capital, Pantera, Kraken, Falconx, Brevan Howard and others. Eightco will change its Nasdaq Ticker to “Orbs” once the agreement is finished on September 11.
The expansion of partners and institutional interest occur during a period of strong traction of the network. More than 530,000 new users have checked in the last seven days, the highest leap of weeks, lifting the total greater than 33.5 million.
The activity of the portfolio also established recordings, with 31.6 million transactions processed during the same period and daily volumes exceeding two million for the first time.
