The Worldcoin project, founded by Sam Altman, has announced an ambitious launch of 7,500 'orbs' in the US by the end of 2025. These iris-scanning devices are designed for biometric verification of users, which is the foundation of the Worldcoin ecosystem. The rollout will begin in six key cities, including San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, with a focus on mass user engagement. This was reported by CoinDesk, citing official project statements.
