## Information for Potential Distributors

### Who are we?

We are a Silicon Valley startup planning to launch a new world-changing cryptocurrency. The idea is that we give one bit of it out to every person in the world. The challenge with this is to make sure everyone only gets their free part once - one part for each person in the world. Lots of crypto startups have tried this using differernt verification methods, such as phone numbers and email addresses. However, this will always fail as users can just create endless emails, for example, and claim the free parts to themselves, essentially making the currency worthless. This is why we have created a state-of-the-art identification device, called *an orb*. The orb, as seen in the picture above, takes a picture of your eyes, and recognises your iris pattern to tell you if you ever have signed up before. This way we can make sure that every person in the world only receives their free part once, as everyone's iris is unique to them.

We will have independent *Distributors* who will be going around with an orb in their cities and communities, spreading our currency around the world. These Distributors receive a significant commission for every signup they make, increasing their stake in our network and their prospect of gaining life-changing wealth and influence in their communities.

### What do we need?

Since we are launching our cryptocurrency around early 2021 - all over the world, it is important that we constantly test both the orb's technology and our mission in different countries and cultures. We have already field tested in London, Istanbul, Berlin, Munich, Accra, Mexico City, and São Paolo, among other places. For every place we test, we like to gauge the following reactions of people:
1) How they respond to the orb
2) How they respond to cryptocurrency and getting a free piece of the future

Since we have not yet launched our cryptocurrency, when testing this device on people in the wild, we give away Bitcoin, under the alias The Bitcoin Project (www.the-bitcoin-project.com).

We would like to bring one (or multiple) of our orbs to your city, where will we spend an insightful and exciting few days field testing. As one of our first ever Distributors, you will ideally have a strong cultural and geographical awareness of your city/country, resonate with our project and mission, and be able to explain this to people on the field (in your native language, of course). You will be compensated competitively in Bitcoin for each signup you make during the field tests, along with any other additional costs. You will also have the opportunity to hold onto the orbs after we leave and continue to field test at your own desire, potentially even when Worldcoin launches and we start giving away our own cryptocurrency.

Early Distributors of Worldcoin project to have a large stake in our network as the currency takes off, as well as have an incredible influence on both your city and our mission as a whole. The success of our mission is purely based on Distributors like yourself, and we are so excited to meet you!
