Rarimo's Worldcoin Alternative RariMe Goes Live
Summary
Rarimo has launched RariMe, an app that enables users to generate passport zero-knowledge proofs (ZKs) to verify their uniqueness without revealing their identity. This contrasts with competitor Worldcoin, which uses orbs to scan eyeballs for user verification. RariMe uses smartphones to scan passports, ensuring no personal data is shared during the identity verification process. The technology was previously used in an anonymous, blockchain-powered referendum on the legitimacy of Vladimir Putin’s election victory. The first demo use case will involve RariMe using passport ZKs to distribute programmable airdrops to citizens of specific countries.
