OpenAI CEO Sam Altman launches new crypto project WorldCoin. The key to this project is its World ID account, which only real people will get. To get this ID, the customer needs to sign up using WorldCoin’s Orb (a silver ball-shaped Irish scanner).
According to Reuters, San Francisco and Berlin-based Company Tools for Humanity worked behind WorldCoin. There are 2 million users in the beta version of this project.
WorldCoin aims to expand its operations to 35 cities in 20 countries by officially launching.
WorldCoin co-founder Alex Blania said the cryptographic aspect of WorldID is important. Because different crypto Blockchain can store IDs in a way that can’t be controlled or blocked by any single person while protecting their privacy.
