BlockBeats News, July 28th, according to Cointelegraph, San Francisco-based lending institution Divine Research has issued approximately 30,000 unsecured short-term cryptocurrency loans since December, using OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's iris scanning platform World ID to verify borrowers' identities. Divine Research primarily offers sub-$1,000 USDC stablecoin loans to overseas borrowers underserved by traditional financial services, using World ID to ensure users cannot open multiple accounts in case of default.
