#worldcoin will make Argentina its regional center of operations in LATAM.

Worldcoin, the controversial cryptocurrency project that gives away tokens to those who scan their iris, announced its plans to turn Argentina into the “neural center” of its operations in the Latin American region.

In a press release sent to the CriptoNoticias editorial team, the Woldcoin team notified that they intend to expand their operations in Argentina. They will do this by opening 50 Worldcoin stores in more than 10 cities in the country. They will also open two stores where users “can learn about the technology and explore more about the project.”

As indicated by Worldcoin in its statement, the decision to make Argentina its nerve center of operations was made after a meeting with Argentine President Javier Milei in San Francisco, California, United States.

Martín Mazza, regional manager of Tools for Humanity, indicated that Argentina, having a technological ecosystem and qualified human capital, "is an ideal place for the development of tools aimed at preparing for the era of artificial intelligence (AI)."
