This is super creepy, and with OpenAI’s Sam Altman of ChapGPT fame being involved and the money they have invested. The video presentation below is pretty interesting in what a slick hardware platform they’ve made, their orb, for scanning irises and getting people their iris hash and their unique ID key. And they throw in AI as being used too. It certainly fits the bill for a one world currency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the American public and even some U.S. politicians have been sounding the alarm recently over the dangers of the potential future rollout of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and the loss of all privacy in any financial transactions, a new blockchain financial network that was launched in 2019, before COVID, has been gaining momentum here in 2023 and is now being used in dozens of countries around the world with over 1.5 million users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it is now being launched in the United States: World ID with the Worldcoin cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

World ID is not some concept for the future. It is already here, and already being used around the world with the World App and Worldcoin, for both financial transactions and \u201cWorld ID checks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Since its initial debut, 1.5 million people have joined the World App pre-release, more than 500,000 of which use it every month. On a typical day, it sees around 60,000 transactions and 25,000 World ID checks among other actions from over 100,000 people in a handful of countries. Today we\u2019re excited to introduce Phase I of World App, and to make it globally available for the first time. (Source<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Why have so many people around the world so quickly signed up for a World ID?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because they are being offered free cryptocurrency, and in some cases even free money in their local currencies<\/a>, by using their new World ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And what do they have to do to receive this free money?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They just have to have their eyeball scanned by the Worldcoin \u201cOrb\u201d which will then create their unique World ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scanning one\u2019s eyeball seems like a pretty creepy way to create an ID, so what is the rationale to use one\u2019s eye as a biometric ID?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is to prove that \u201cyou are human\u201d and not an AI, or so they say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This system is going to be rolled out in the United States within the next few weeks, so if you are not familiar with this network yet, I suggest you get up to speed ASAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How fast could this World ID and World App program be rolled out?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well considering that the founder of Worldcoin and World ID is Sam Altman, the same person who created ChatGPT which last November became the fastest downloaded app in history with hundreds of millions of downloads, I think it is safe to conclude that this World ID could be rolled out very quickly<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Worldcoin and World ID?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The stated goal of Worldcoin and World ID is to reach the 50% of the world that currently has no form of ID and cannot therefore participate in the Global economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They believe that cryptocurrency is the way to distribute universal basic income, but to do so, they need to enroll people in the World ID program, and to make sure that each person on the planet can only have one World ID and not scam the system, they use biometrics to prove that they are \u201chumans\u201d with a single ID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The biometric that they chose was an eye scan, which required them to build a special hardware device to scan people\u2019s eyes, called the \u201cOrb.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a video that they produced which explains why they created Worldcoin and the Orb. Much of the last part of the video is just explaining how they designed and made the Orb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
