Sam Altman's Worldcoin Has Surged 40% Since OpenAI Launched Sora

WLD, the token of Sam Altman's crypto-powered digital ID project Worldcoin, has surged 40% in the past day. Worldcoin's WLD token is currently trading at $7.44, up 39.8% on the day and 185.8% in the past week, per data from CoinGecko.

'Minecraft' Cracked Down on Crypto and NFTs—But Worldcoin Integration Is Fine, Microsoft Says

Minecraft, one of the world’s most popular games, has also been arguably the biggest to push back against cryptocurrency and NFT integrations. Developer Mojang and publisher Microsoft banned their use even within fan-operated online servers. That’s why it was a surprise to see Worldcoin announce a Minecraft integration last week. Worldcoin is best known for its “Orb,” a device that scans a person's retinas and generates a unique IrisCode, which is tracked on the project’s blockchain and used to...

This is achieved through the use of Orbs, machines that scan a person's eyeball to create a World ID.
