· Overtake Marketplace will adopt World ID human verification technology to enhance trust and security in custody-based P2P transactions.

· World’s “proof of human” technology helps reduce the risks of fraud and Sybil attacks, while also providing a more user-friendly onboarding experience and privacy protection.

Overtake (OVERTAKE), a P2P marketplace for gaming assets based on the Sui blockchain, has announced a partnership with the real human network World, and will introduce World ID into its marketplace login process. Overtake will gradually enable World ID login for seller onboarding as well as for high-value or high-frequency transactions, integrating it with its 2-of-3 multi-signature custody system to further strengthen a secure trading environment. While users enjoy the existing “Web 2.5” experience (such as instant USDC settlement), they can also reduce the risk of Sybil attacks and bot accounts in a safer P2P trading environment.

World is a human verification technology that uses an advanced camera device called Orb to confirm that an individual is a real and unique human—without revealing their specific identity. This year, World has expanded its presence in the United States, launched expansion plans for World App and World ID, and announced integration partnerships with payment and social platform providers. The project has also increased the number of Orb verification points in major US cities to broaden user access channels.

Overtake is a P2P trading marketplace based on the Sui blockchain, supporting secure, low-fee transactions of game items, accounts, and in-game currencies through multi-signature smart contract custody. Its features include instant USDC settlement after transactions, social account login, and gas fee sponsorship, aiming to provide a “Web 2.5” user experience—bringing the real needs of Web2 players on-chain, rather than being limited to native Web3 users.

Overtake CEO Seunghwan Oh stated: “The partnership with World is not just a technical integration, but an important step toward the secure and trustworthy trading environment envisioned by Overtake. By introducing an identity verification system that Web2 players can trust, we hope to enhance the credibility of the marketplace and smoothly attract more new users to join.”

This collaboration aligns with Overtake’s vision of ensuring transaction security by combining stablecoin payments and on-chain custody. It is expected to accelerate Overtake’s strategy of converting Web2 player demand into on-chain activity. Industry observers point out that when identity verification is combined with custodial payments, transaction reliability is significantly improved, with the potential to drive large-scale user adoption and long-term market expansion. In the future, Overtake plans to further expand the range of tradable items, introduce partner games, and enhance localized payment and settlement functions, thereby simultaneously increasing liquidity, trading volume, and user base.
