Crypto nuclear explosion! When the national security guillotine falls, how much is your iris worth?
"At the gambling table of the crypto world, policy red lines are always deadlier than K-line charts." On August 6, a notice from China's Ministry of National Security subjected Worldcoin, the 49th largest cryptocurrency globally, to a "policy nuclear bomb"—within 24 hours, the price briefly dropped 2%, and a major whale address sold 1 million WLD, spreading market panic across the entire biometric recognition sector.
Why has iris data become a trigger for national security?
Core contradiction: This crackdown is by no means accidental, but rather China's ultimate declaration of "digital sovereignty."
Data ironclad evidence:
Worldcoin has only scanned about 12.35 million irises (officially claiming 26.1 million, with a discrepancy of 14 million), but this is enough to trigger an alarm—according to the (Data Security Law), iris data, as the ultimate ID that is uniquely more definitive than fingerprints, if controlled by foreign projects, would equate to replicating national citizens' "digital avatars" on the blockchain.
The Ministry of National Security's announcement directly points out: "A certain overseas company" is transferring biometric data to an unknown location through an iris exchange model, which may be used for identity forgery and infiltration of confidential locations.
Chain reaction: These sectors are experiencing "policy strangulation".
Market situation:
Biometric concept coins plummet: AI + biometric projects like FET and AGIX fell over 15% within 24 hours, and Huobi and OKX have begun reviewing "iris-related projects."
Global regulatory linkage: Following closely, U.S. Senator Warren tweeted, saying "Worldcoin's model is suspected of violating privacy laws," as cryptocurrencies fall into the "pincer attack" of U.S.-China regulation.
Retail investor survival guide: Should we buy the dip now or cut losses?
Blood and tears advice:
Short-term players: After the sharp decline of WLD, there may be a rebound, but if the Ministry of National Security further escalates the crackdown, it will trigger a second collapse. It is advisable to play cautiously.
Long-term investors: Immediately stay away from all projects involving biometric data on the blockchain! The power of policy black swans far exceeds your stop-loss limits.
Qingyao's ultimate warning: The cryptocurrency cold war has begun!
When the national-level security machine is activated, the economic model of any token will be crushed. Remember: in the crypto world, the biggest Alpha is not technology, but understanding where the guns of Beijing and Washington are pointing!
