According to CryptoPotato, Argentina's technology and cryptocurrency sectors have experienced a surge, with World ID, a project by Worldcoin, reaching an all-time high in user verifications. On August 30, Argentina set a new record with 9,500 citizens verifying their identities through World ID. This growth is seen as a sign of increasing crypto adoption but is also controversial due to Worldcoin's issues with authorities and the community. World ID is an innovative identity protocol that uses the proof of personhood (PoP) methodology to verify a user's unique human identity through a biometric device, the Orb, without extracting personal information. The growing popularity of Worldcoin has led to the World App, associated with Worldcoin, quickly becoming the most popular app in Argentina's App Store. Since Worldcoin was introduced in late July, the demand for World ID verifications has skyrocketed worldwide. Worldcoin aims to bridge the financial inclusion gap with digital identity and has gained significant traction with two million users before the token launch in July. However, its release brought controversy. The distribution of retinal scanners by Worldcoin has raised concerns about user privacy, prompting thorough examination by international data protection agencies. The Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision in Germany and France's National Commission on Informatics and Liberty are among the institutions investigating Worldcoin's data handling practices.
