Worldcoin Reveals New Updated Orbs Coming Soon…
• January 25, 2024 3:47 pm • CommentsWorldcoin has revealed that it plans on releasing new, updated orbs this year in an effort to make its products more user-friendly.
The new orbs will reportedly look much more like Apple products, sleek and minimalistic, as opposed to looking like they came straight out of a science fiction film.
Sam Altman’s project has drawn the ire of liberty-minded individuals and security buffs who say that the entire Worldcoin initiative represents a massive breach of privacy and individual freedom.
ProCoin News previously reported that Kenya moved to ban the entire project in their country and even detained several Worldcoin executives for a brief period.
Despite this, the project continues to move forward and has entered several notable markets including Singapore. Here’s what is currently being reported on Worldcoin’s new orbs:

Daily Coin noted:
The upgrade is part of Worldcoin’s ambitious goal to create a global identity and financial network. But despite championing the innovative technology that has already raised around $250 million from investors, Worldcoin has faced skepticism and backlash due to privacy concerns.
Jacquelyn Melinek explained: “It is going to be similar to an Apple product, ‘more friendly’ looking and ‘way [more] tuned down,’ its CEO and co-founder
Alex Blania said.”
