The crypto project “proof-of-personhood” known as Worldcoin (by Sam Altman) has recently taken significant steps to consolidate its position both on the international stage and in government relations, particularly with Malaysia.
The CEO of Tools of Humanity and co-founder of Worldcoin, Alex Blania, together with Sam Altman, another co-founder known for his role in OpenAI, met with Malaysian leaders, including Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, in an attempt to strengthen ties with the government.

This move follows a series of regulatory interventions that have questioned the project’s practices, especially regarding the collection of biometric data through iris scanning, a technology that is at the core of Worldcoin’s offering. Despite the controversies, meetings in Malaysia seem to demonstrate a growing interest from some governments in the potential of such technologies for digital identification.
