- The Worldcoin (WLD) token was listed on the crypto exchange Binance today.
- Buterin said that the continuous development of personality-proof systems might take years.
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, released details of the Worldcoin Project to the public on Monday, July 24. The Worldcoin (WLD) token was listed on the crypto exchange Binance shortly after the announcement.
Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin has shared his thoughts on Worldcoin’s biometric identity verification system. He described how Worldcoin stands apart from the crowd by scanning users’ iris using cutting-edge biometrics and a piece of equipment called “the Orb.”
More Development Needed
Buterin said that Worldcoin is based on a simple concept: artificial intelligence (AI) will provide many material benefits to mankind, but it also has the potential to cause the loss of many professions and make it difficult, if not impossible, to distinguish between humans and robots.
Also, he said that the continuous development of personality-proof systems might take years despite the fact that they create privacy and security issues.
Moreover, Buterin added that several of Worldcoin’s commercial actions as well as the bad design of its “coin” had earned criticism. Some of the feedback is rather specific, concentrating on decisions that might have been taken better and that the Worldcoin team may be willing to change.
It seems difficult to create a proof-of-personhood system that is both effective and dependable, particularly in the hands of persons who are not part of the established crypto community. It’s a challenge and it might take a lot of time before a viable solution is found as per Buterin.
Investors are thrilled and optimistic about the development of this big project, despite certain concerns. As a consequence, there has been a flurry of activity as early investors seek to acquire WLD tokens. The WLD token’s price has increased by over 60% in a little over an hour after it was listed on Binance and reached a high of $3.31 as per data from CMC.
