Sam Altman’s crypto project Worldcoin officially launches across six U.S. locations as of March 27, 2025, marking a significant expansion for the initiative.
The U.S. rollout of Worldcoin highlights the project’s push for increased adoption and potential market influence, following recent incentives for developers and possible listings on major exchanges.
Worldcoin Expands into Six U.S. Cities
Worldcoin, led by Sam Altman, has launched in six U.S. locations. The expansion comes after previous international rollouts, which now extends the use of its biometric identity solutions into the American market.
Tools for Humanity, the project’s developer, spearheaded this expansion by leveraging a $300,000 developer rewards program aimed at increasing development on the platform, further solidifying the project’s presence in the evolving crypto landscape.
“The $300,000 Developer Reward pilot is designed to incentivize innovation on the World platform and drive broad adoption.” — Sam Altman, CEO, OpenAI and Co-founder, Tools for Humanity
Potential Coinbase Listing Fuels Speculation
The expansion to the U.S. coincided with news that Worldcoin is being considered for listing by Coinbase, which could provide significant liquidity and visibility to the token, potentially boosting WLD’s adoption among American users.
Worldcoin’s rollout may face similar regulatory scrutiny as seen in Spain but also enjoys positive sentiment among developers. The project supports over 150 mini apps, suggesting strong ecosystem development and potential for increased innovation and user engagement.
Insights into Biometric Identity Solution Challenges
The launch follows previous international rollouts that encountered regulatory challenges, such as in Spain, which saw temporary suspensions due to privacy complaints. Nonetheless, these launches demonstrated the viability of biometric identity solutions within the crypto space.
Experts from Kanalcoin suggest that the expansion is part of Sam Altman’s broader vision to create a more inclusive digital identity system. The addition of Worldcoin to exchange roadmaps like Coinbase could enhance its market position and drive further adoption.
