TL;DR
- World Chat allows World App users to connect, chat, and send cryptocurrencies easily and securely, using end-to-end encryption.
- Integration with the app wallet makes cryptocurrency transfers easier, improving the user experience.
- Mini Apps and World Build are driving the creation of new applications, with over 100 Mini Apps available and an incubator program supporting developers in their growth.
World Chat, the new feature introduced in the World App, offers an innovative way to interact with other network users.
From now on, users can connect and chat with people from all over the world, as well as send and receive cryptocurrencies as easily as sending an image. This feature is available in beta and ensures privacy through end-to-end encryption.
The new chat system integrates the World ID protocol, allowing users to verify if they are chatting with a verified human. Conversations between users are distinguished by a blue chat bubble and a gem indicating that they are verified via their ID. On the other hand, unverified accounts are identifiable by a grey chat bubble. This differentiation enhances security and trust, providing more transparent communication.
Additionally, World Chat integrates seamlessly with the app’s wallet, making it easier to send cryptocurrencies quickly and simply. Users can make transfers without leaving the app, optimizing the user experience and opening new possibilities for those looking for an integrated solution that combines chat and digital payments.
World App: The All-in-One Application
The Mini Apps model, which is booming within World App, also plays a key role in this expansion. These web applications integrated into the platform allow developers to take advantage of the app’s benefits to access new experiences, such as identity verification and the integration of digital financial services. In the first months of 2025, over 100 Mini Apps were available on the platform, and users have made over 250 million openings of these apps.
Additionally, the Build program, launched in collaboration with the FWB DAO and other organizations, aims to support developers who seek to create innovative Mini Apps. Through this incubator, app creators can access mentoring and resources, facilitating the creation of solutions within the ecosystem.
The integration of World Chat, along with the growth of Mini Apps and the Build incubator, allows the platform to expand its reach and functionality, creating a more dynamic and accessible environment for users and developers.
