What could go wrong when major investors include Reid Hoffman, ties to human trafficking, Sam Bankman-Fried, founder of now defunct crypto firm FTX and Sam Altman who developed the technology he now wishes to save us all from by generating a hash of your eyeball on a public blockchain to verify you are human and keep you safe.
UBI - Universal Basic Income is never mentioned once anywhere on the worldcoin.org website that I can find. However, in this tweet by Alex Blania:
'Over time, World App will evolve into a toolkit to empower individuals in the Age of AI, enabling the usage of proof of personhood, the equitable global distribution of digital currencies and ultimately a path to AI-funded UBI.'
In fact, from the website:
What is Worldcoin?
Currently in beta, the Worldcoin protocol is intended to be the world’s largest identity and financial public network, open to everyone regardless of their country, background or economic status.
(They updated their website on 7/31/23). Incidentally, some of the videos I have seen by trusted sources report that certain pages on the Worldcoin website were geofenced to block internet traffic from the U.S. from even visiting those pages on their website to find out more about the project.
They are purchasing biometric data. In typical crypto fashion the transaction of an exchange of goods for services is mystified by the process. "I will give you free crypto if you let me scan your eyeball," means that you are purchasing biometric data.
Why not just promote the distribution and access to Bitcoin if your purpose is what it claims to be? Worldcoin seems to be more interested in controlling the protocol or using it as a front for something else. Training AI on a billion new eyeballs to create new biometric data to set up dummy accounts or create AI digital footprints that resemble or mimic the activity of a real person? To do what with?
