Gate News bot news, the Crypto Assets project World, co-founded by OpenAI’s Sam Altman, has suspended its iris scanning operations in Germany. The company’s website states that the World Orb site will soon resume operations. The Orb is a basketball-sized silver sphere used to verify user identity and join the company’s identity network.

The project (formerly known as Worldcoin) is updating its site and plans to open a flagship store in Munich. Users can obtain WLD coins by scanning their irises or by referring others. The operators of the Orb site are third-party companies, but they do not claim to work for World. Some groups pay refugees in Berlin for iris scans, earning nearly $700,000 worth of coins during peak hours.
