According to TechFlow, Tools for Humanity CEO Alex Blania said at the 2024 Korea Blockchain Week event that Worldcoin's current focus is on large-scale distribution of iris scanning "Orb" devices to expand the scale of the project and improve its practicality.
Blania stressed that networks like PayPal and Facebook can only work if they reach a certain scale. Worldcoin currently has more than 6.5 million verified World IDs in more than 160 countries around the world.
Blania revealed that the project will announce "exciting updates" for the next generation of Orb devices in the coming weeks, primarily involving changes to the operating model.
In addition, Worldcoin is exploring potential collaboration with the Korean gaming industry and is preparing to launch its own Layer-2 network, World Chain.
