Sam Altman's World Project Blasts Off in Six U.S. Cities: Scan Your Iris for WLD Tokens!

Buckle up, crypto fans! Sam Altman's mind-blowing World project has just launched in six sizzling U.S. states, and it's ready to rock your world! Claim those juicy WLD tokens by scanning your irises, and get ready for the ride of your life. But wait, there's more! They're teaming up with Visa for a card that'll make your head spin.

The project dropped the bombshell on April 30, announcing its long-awaited U.S. debut. But hold your horses, it's only available in six key cities... for now. We're talking Atlanta, Austin, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, and San Francisco, baby!

If you're lucky enough to live in one of these hot spots, you can grab those WLD tokens by snagging the World App, verifying your identity, and scanning your irises at those fancy Orbs. And guess what? These bad boys are powered by NVIDIA and chilling in select areas and partner locations like Razer stores across the U.S.

Now, let's talk about the elephant in the room. Those iris-scanning orbs have been causing a stir over privacy concerns, with countries like Brazil and Hong Kong giving the project the side-eye for collecting and storing your precious face and iris info.

But don't sweat it, the project's got your back. They're letting you delete your unique iris code for good, effectively "un-verifying" your World ID. Talk about taking control!

And speaking of control, the project's promising you the keys to your digital identity with their Personal Custody feature. Your personal data stays on your device, and it ain't going nowhere near their servers or any third party. They're using some fancy crypto magic like Anonymized Multi-Party Computation and zero-knowledge proofs to keep your data and actions under wraps while verifying your humanity.

"Advanced cryptographic systems – including Anonymized Multi-Party Computation and zero knowledge proofs – ensure that your data and actions remain private while your humanity is verified," the project declared.

World Card powered by Visa

But wait, there's more! The project's dropping a debit card powered by Visa that'll be automatically linked to the World App. Spend those WLD tokens at any merchant that takes Visa cards, and watch the magic happen. Merchants get fiat currencies, so you can spend your rewards without converting your crypto to cash.

Once it's out in the wild, verified users can snag a card tied to their unique World ID. It's like having a piece of the future in your wallet!

At press time, WLD took a tiny dip of 2.33% in the last 24 hours, but it's still holding strong at $1.05 after hitting a daily high of $1.17. With a market cap of nearly $1.4 billion and a daily trading volume of $465 million, this token's on fire! And get this, it's up a whopping 23.59% in the past week.
