Sam Altman’s Creepy Crypto Launches

Sam Altman’s much-anticipated crypto project, Worldcoin, has finally seen the light of day. After three years in the making and a cool $250 million in funding, the eyeball-scanning crypto is ready to roll. 🌍

The catch? It’s launching in 35 cities across 20 countries, but the US isn’t on the guest list. US users are watching the Worldcoin party from afar because of regulatory uncertainty and the potential misuse of cryptos.

Worldcoin, which claims to distinguish humans from AI online, has been shrouded in controversy and doubt. The project’s transparency and decentralization have been questioned, and the details of token distribution remain hazy due to potential legal issues in the US.
