Thailand’s SEC raids World’s iris scanning site over unlicensed WLD token operations, raising legal concerns for Sam Altman’s digital identity project.
World, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s digital identity project, formerly known as Worldcoin, is facing new issues in Thailand, with local authorities raiding an iris scanning location allegedly operated by the platform.
Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) conducted a joint operation with the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) to raid an iris scanning location related to “WLD exchange services,” the SEC announced Friday.
World’s WLD (WLD) token is the project’s native cryptocurrency, distributed to eligible World ID users in exchange for verification through iris scanning at World’s orb locations.
