Newly-launched project Worldcoin has failed to achieve significant progress as signups for the platform\u2019s \u2018Digital ID\u2019 continues to dwindle since launching on July 24.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What Is Wrong With Worldcoin?<\/h2>\n

Controversies surrounding the project and reservations like privacy concerns have brought about skepticism and reluctance to sign up on the platform. As part of the sign-up process, users must scan their iris using \u201cThe Orb,\u201d available at designated locations worldwide. Once the user is verified as human, they receive the \u201cWorld ID\u201d alongside 25 WLD, the project\u2019s native token, worth roughly $60.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many have questioned how safe it is to use \u201cThe Orb\u201d and how the project will handle such sensitive data, with prominent figures like Twitter\u2019s former CEO Jack and Ethereum\u2019s co-founder Vitalik Buterin expressing their concerns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Stark Difference Between Pre-Launch And Post-Launch Figures<\/h2>\n

Worldcoin saw an impressive <\/span>2 million sign-ups<\/span><\/a> before the project\u2019s launch. However, there seems to be a stark difference between the pre-launch and post-launch numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hong Kong was one of the cities with the most number of sign-ups. The <\/span>South China Morning Post<\/span><\/a> reported that the three designated locations in Hong Kong saw a combined total of about 600 sign-ups on the first day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the report, Heather Huang, an operator of one of the Orbs in the city, asserted that the 600 sign-ups accounted for almost half of the total Worldcoin sign-ups on launch day. <\/span><\/p>\n

If 600 sign-ups represent half of the total sign-ups on the first day, that will invariably mean only about 1,200 people signed up on launch day – a not-so-impressive figure compared to how many Worldcoin claims signed up pre-launch.<\/span><\/p>\n
