Asked someone else this in another group and they really like the question so I thought, let's not keep that to ourselves :) What would have to happen to make 2026 the best year of your life?

Tony says ‘Proximity is power.’ Let’s find out who’s in proximity... Tell us all where you’re from… without actually telling us where you’re from 🤣

📝 TL;DR World, Sam Altman’s proof of human project, just upgraded its app into a kind of all in one hub for verified identity, private chat, and crypto payments. It is an early look at what life might feel like when your wallet, messaging, and online identity all live in one place. 🧠 Overview World started as a controversial biometric ID project that scans your iris to prove you are a unique human, not a bot. The new app update pushes it beyond a niche crypto wallet and into “super app” territory, with encrypted chat and Venmo style crypto sending built in. For anyone building an audience or business online, this hints at a future where identity, money, and messaging are tightly connected. 📜 The Announcement On December 11, World, built by Tools for Humanity and co founded by Sam Altman and Alex Blania, released a new version of its app that the team is calling a “super app.” The update adds World Chat, an end to end encrypted messenger that flags whether the person you are talking to has a verified World ID, plus an expanded crypto payment system for sending, receiving, and even routing paychecks into the app. Verification with the famous Orb is still optional for payments, but strongly encouraged for social features through visual cues in chat. ⚙️ How It Works • Proof of human identity layer - World scans a user’s iris once, turns that into an encrypted code, then uses that code as a reusable ID to prove you are a unique human across apps without sharing your face or name. • World Chat encrypted messenger - The new chat feature uses end to end encryption, similar to privacy apps like Signal, so conversations are protected from outsiders, including World itself. • Color coded trust signals - In chat, bubbles are color coded to show whether the person you are talking to is World verified or not, nudging users toward talking to real, verified humans.

Hi everyone, My name is Romain Hélias. I’m passionate about AI and no-code technologies, and after 18 years with my wonderful wife Cindy, I’m CHANGING MY LIFE: I’m leaving my job in October 2024 to embark on a freelance adventure (don’t worry — I’m keeping my wife). I have always been fascinated by technology’s ability to solve problems in creative and efficient ways. With two little ones at home, I’m used to juggling complex ideas and requests for coloring pages — excellent training for project management, right? My expertise is mainly in prompt engineering, advanced AI chatbots, no-code systems, and, more recently, AI Agents. For now I primarily apply these skills to creating content on YouTube. I’m here to exchange ideas and learn with you. I’m not seeking the spotlight so much as wanting to contribute humbly and move forward together toward innovative solutions. I honestly believe we all have something to learn and that everyone can add their stone to the building. We don’t all think the same way, and that difference is precisely what elevates collective intelligence. I hope to learn how to work with you while remaining inspiring. See you soon for new AI-dventures, 😉 Romain Hélias
