Recently, on the Bankless podcast, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Worldcoin CEO Alex Blania discussed the Worldcoin project. Worldcoin is an ambitious cryptocurrency project that aims to generate unique, verifiable personality traits by leveraging human biometrics (mapped to our unique DNA). Sam believes this is the most robust way to resist witch attacks. Another goal of Worldcoin is to become a permissionless protocol, including manufacturing and operating the Orb itself. Users can scan their eyeballs through the Orb device, realizing the concept of Worldcoin in the physical world. Currently, Worldcoin has deployed 210 devices worldwide and has verified 1.7 million people. They aim to officially launch and begin mass distribution of Worldcoin in the coming weeks.
