The premise is that you can make spam filtering and bot filtering and circles of trust work if you have a finite amount of accounts. Currently on the internet there are infinite accounts. If there's only a billion accounts, filtering becomes much easier.
- konschubert 3y agoYeah, it’s a cool idea, even though it creeps me out. But why do you need a coin for that? If you have centralised accounts you may as well have a centralised ledger. On the other hand, if you decentralise account creation - let me tell about my friend, the virtual iris scanner powered by /dev/random

- audunw 3y agoNo idea how world coin is supposed to work.. but couldn’t they get their account back by scanning their iris again? Like, I’m guessing you’re not supposed to have to scan your iris every time you use your account. But can’t the iris be like a “I forgot my password” mechanism?
- HWR_14 3y agoAFAIK, nope. If that was the case there would be no point in buying anyone's account. If you stored value in it they could always use their iris to get into it.
