To accelerate the transition towards a more inclusive and prosperous global economy.
Worldcoin is an ambitious new entrant to the crypto space. It hopes to create a digital currency with a fully global user base of upwards of 1B users, and it's making a smart play to get there. By digitally scanning their iris, users will be given a free share in the cryptocurrency. Over 3M people have signed up so far and the company's ambitions have already seen it catapulted to Unicorn status.
It’s an interesting premise, once you cut through the dystopian user-recruitment process. The single wallet theoretically makes the system more resistant to fraud, and the low barrier of entry helps streamline adoption rates.
Notably, it is likely to prove especially useful in the African, Asian, and South American regions where cryptocurrency is becoming an increasingly prominent feature in everyday life. High remittance rates, frequent mobile payments, and some high-inflation economies are making crypto an attractive and secure option in these areas, and by providing more democratized access to it, Worldcoin will be making good on its plans to bring crypto where it’s needed most.
