Worldcoin, the eye-scanning crypto project with Open AI CEO Sam Altman as co-founder, is recently sparking debate about privacy and digital identity. This discussion has accompanied the surge of an unrelated token – WorldCoin (WDC).
WorldCoin, which has no relation to Altman’s Worldcoin, experienced a significant surge between May 15 and May 17, despite no new updates from the project. Instead, the surge likely came from the latest buzz around Altman’s project, leading to confusion among investors.
The obscure token, launched in 2013 with a market cap of about $9 million, seemingly benefited from the success of its namesake.
