The project from Sam Altman - the creator of ChatGPT, which either excites or terrifies privacy advocates.

Sam Altman, the person behind OpenAI (ChatGPT), is launching a project, $WLD that will either save humanity from the dominance of robots or drive us into the most technologically advanced concentration camp in history.

Welcome to the world of Worldcoin (WLD), where your digital identity is confirmed by scanning your retina.

Why is this needed?

🚨 The problem of proof of personhood

The main idea of Worldcoin $WLD — to create Proof of Personhood. By 2026, when AI agents write code, run social media, and make deals, distinguishing a bot from a living person becomes nearly impossible.

Worldcoin offers a solution: a unique digital ID that proves you are a human and you are unique.

🔮 The Orb: A sphere that sees everything

How to get this ID? You need to find the Orb — a chrome sphere scanner. It photographs your retina, transforms this biometric image into a unique digital code (hash), and the original image (according to the company) is deleted.

How it works in crypto: For scanning, you receive $WLD — project coins. It's a kind of 'unconditional basic income' for just existing as a person.

🚩 Red flags and paranoia

The Worldcoin topic terrifies privacy advocates. And here's why:

Centralization of biometrics: Even if the Orb deletes the images, the hash database of retinas is a massive dataset. If it's hacked, the consequences could be catastrophic.

Ethical question: The project actively scanned people in developing countries (Indonesia, Ghana), offering them small amounts of money for the scan, which raised criticism about a colonial approach.

Regulatory pressure: European regulators (for example, in Germany and France) are investigating Worldcoin over data security issues.

💰 Why keep an eye on WLD today?

For WLD traders, it’s a 'beta' on the success of OpenAI. Any news from Sam Altman (like the launch of a new GPT model or Sora) often drives the WLD price up. Investors see the project as part of Altman's AI wealth ecosystem.

In summary: Worldcoin is the boldest and most frightening experiment at the intersection of AI and crypto. It's an attempt to digitize the very concept of 'human'.
