- Overtake Marketplace to adopt World ID, proof of human technology. Enhancing trust and safety in escrow-based P2P trading.
- World’s ‘proof of human’ technology helps to mitigate fraud and Sybil attacks, while enabling user-friendly onboarding and privacy
SINGAPORE, Sept. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Overtake (OVERTAKE), a Sui blockchain-based P2P marketplace for game assets, announced a partnership with the real human network, World and is introducing World ID into its marketplace login process. Overtake will gradually apply log in with World ID to seller onboarding and to high-value or high-frequency transactions, strengthening its secure trading environment when combined with its 2-of-3 multisig escrow system. Users will continue to enjoy their existing “Web 2.5” experience—such as instant USDC settlement—while benefiting from safer P2P trades with reduced risks of Sybil and bot accounts.
World is a proof-of-human technology that verifies an individual as a real, unique human – but not which human – via an advanced camera, the Orb. This year, World has expanded its presence in the U.S. unveiled plans to expand World App and World ID, and announced integrations with payment and social platform providers. The project is also increasing Orb verification access across major U.S. cities, thereby broadening user touchpoints.
Overtake is a P2P marketplace built on the Sui blockchain that enables safe, low-fee transactions of game items, accounts, and in-game currencies using multisig smart contract escrow. With features such as instant USDC settlement upon transaction completion, social login, and gas fee sponsorship, it delivers a “Web 2.5” user experience—bridging real demand from Web2 gamers into the on-chain economy, rather than focusing solely on Web3-native users.
Seunghwan Oh, CEO of Overtake, said: “This collaboration with World is more than just a technical integration—it’s a significant step toward strengthening the safe and trustworthy trading environment that Overtake envisions. By implementing an identity verification system that Web2 gamers can trust, we aim to raise marketplace credibility and seamlessly onboard more users.”
This partnership aligns with Overtake’s vision of combining stablecoin-based payments with on-chain escrow for secure trading. It is expected to accelerate Overtake’s strategy of converting Web2 gamer demand into on-chain activity. Industry observers note that when identity verification and escrow payments are applied together, trading reliability improves—potentially leading to mass user adoption and long-term market expansion. Moving forward, Overtake plans to broaden its trading categories, onboard partner games, and enhance localized payment and settlement features to expand liquidity, trading volume, and its user base simultaneously.
