Worldcoin is opening up the world’s poorest people to a a vector of identity theft, creating a global fingerprint database that they control but which will certainly leak
There are so many technical risks and unknowns and trust me bros and obvious failure points
And the end result is to… give everyone welfare?
Can anyone explain why the VCs are investing in this? Is it just a cynical token grab? Because the economics are literally they control all identity and give everyone free money, the only ways that makes sense are exceptionally dystopian.

One thing that's kinda cool about crypto is that your haters go away very quickly since most of them are retards who put their life savings into a casino and lost it all and have no reason to be here anymore
hey @boopdotfun can you please remove the 1% rule that you added after i launched the token, its not the ToS i signed up for, i cant possibly afford 1% given that its the second largest token on your platform, and it's pretty uncool that i have to own it to get creator fees, no?
Maybe instead of projects we could just have a way to invest in founders and devs?
Devs often have much longer careers than their projects, and miss many times before they hit bullseye-- they want to move on from projects that failed but want to bring their community with them.
In VC, they say "we invest in people" because they are building a long-term relationship and understand that many companies have to pivot, and it's more about grit and perseverance than your initial idea. Twitter started out as a completely different type of company and pivoted.
Some of the new social launcher apps are kind of enabling this-- I'm listening to the pitch, but really I'm looking at who is behind it. I'm investing in them.
I think there is space for this to be fleshed out more.
We could have an era of decentralized Medicis or something, I don't know.
