Crypto, Worldcoin opens 6 eye scanning centers in the U.S.
Worldcoin arrives in the United States. The goal is to scan your iris to prove that you are human. Behind this project is Sam Altman, the head of OpenAI, betting on biometric technology to create a unique and secure digital identity. With six sites opened in key cities, the wager is launched: linking blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and eye recognition to reinvent access to digital services.
Worldcoin arrives in the United States with six sites.
The initiative, led by Sam Altman, has partnerships with Visa and Tinder, integrating the World ID into payments and age verification.
But the technology generates division, between the promise of a more human web and fears about privacy and the use of biometric data.
Identification at first glance
The founder of OpenAI, Sam Altman, continues to blur the lines between science fiction and reality.
This time, it is not about generating images or texts with AI, but about examining your eyes up close. The crypto project Worldcoin, recently renamed simply as “World” – now deploys six centers in the United States to collect iris scans with its famous Orb, a spherical biometric device that looks more like an extraterrestrial artifact than a verification terminal.
Austin, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Nashville, Miami, and San Francisco were chosen as the first stops of this techno-identity adventure. The goal: to create a unique IrisCode, specific to each user, to verify that they are indeed a human being and not a robot.
As a reward, the user receives a free dose of WLD, the proprietary cryptocurrency. Everything is orchestrated with one promise: that of a Web where the human is not relegated behind bots, but returns to being central.
