Sam Altman, co-founder of Worldcoin, recently closed a successful Series C funding round with an investment of $115 million, led by Blockchain Capital. Worldcoin's mission is to provide universal access to the global economy regardless of location or background, and tokens will be issued to users who verify their identity through iris scans. Despite criticism, Sam Altman, OpenAI Chief Executive, continues to invest heavily in startups and technology companies, receiving recognition from multiple sources.
Worldcoin is providing free cryptocurrency tokens for users who agree to have their irises scanned. However, some have voiced concerns about the start-up's use of biometric data and its implementation in different countries. Worldcoin claims it will have millions of users by 2025, but users should be mindful of potential risks to their privacy before signing up.
