This is a milestone in building a decentralized internet where humans come first—not bots, not MEV, not spammers. If you’re at @EthCC, come talk to us about what’s next for PBH, Rollup Boost, and human-first blockchain infrastructure.

World Chain now serves 5M+ monthly active wallets and counting. Every new primitive that relies on Proof of Human—like Mini Apps—will get the benefits of PBH by a direct integration. It’s the first system that scales trust and reliability for real people onchain.

We didn’t ship this in a vacuum. Months of joint testing, game day simulations, and failover drills with @AlchemyPlatform made PBH rock solid for mainnet. Their ERC-4337 bundler ā€œRundlerā€ now supports PBH by default.

The World Chain Builder integrates with Rollup Boost, a custom block builder for OP Stack chains, co-developed by @tfh_technology and @flashbots. The World Chain Builder is built on top of Reth from @paradigm, is.modular, open source, and built for flexibility in block.

Under the hood, PBH is implemented directly in World Chain’s block builder. Each block reserves dedicated space at the top for transactions from verified humans. This keeps critical flows, including those initiating in World App or Mini Apps, responsive and dependable.

PBH is a structural shift. It puts humanness on par with economic bidding. Instead of fighting bots for block inclusion, Orb-verified users get built-in transaction priority—no fee wars, no frustration.

World Chain now provides priority blockspace to 13M+ verified humans. Priority Blockspace for Humans (PBH) is now live—guaranteeing reliable access for verified humans, even under high congestion. Here’s how it works—and why it matters for the future of a human-first internet.
