According to reports, Worldcoin founder Sam Altman expressed skepticism about Crypto Assets last Friday in Singapore, stating that he is uncertain whether Crypto Assets will "truly change the world." He said: "I hope it is useful, but I don’t think it has been proven yet." He also stated: "I think Blockchain technology is cool, but I am not sure if it will become the truly world-changing thing that people hope for."



This statement has sparked some controversy, as Altman is promoting a new crypto asset through the Worldcoin project. Worldcoin is an ambitious project aimed at creating a global digital identity and financial network. The project plans to verify identities by scanning people's irises and issuing crypto asset tokens to participants.

However, Altman's remarks seem to contradict the mission of Worldcoin. The Worldcoin website claims that its goal is to "accelerate the global adoption of Crypto Assets." This contradiction raises questions about Altman's true intentions.

Some commentators have pointed out that Altman's remarks may be aimed at alleviating regulatory pressure. The Worldcoin project faces scrutiny from some countries due to its biometric data collection methods. By expressing skepticism about Crypto Assets, Altman may be attempting to maintain a good relationship with regulators.

Another perspective suggests that Altman may be trying to temper people's expectations for Worldcoin. Given the volatility and uncertainty of the Crypto Assets market, a cautious approach may be wise.

Regardless, Altman's remarks highlight the ongoing challenges faced by the Crypto Assets industry. Despite many enthusiastic supporters, Crypto Assets still need to demonstrate their long-term value and practical applications.

For the Worldcoin project, the founder's public expression of skepticism towards crypto assets may have complex implications. It could affect the confidence of investors and users, but it may also be seen as a pragmatic and honest attitude.

As the Worldcoin project continues to develop, the industry will closely watch how Altman and his team coordinate this apparent contradiction and how they communicate their vision and goals to the public and regulatory bodies.
