Worldcoin, the digital identity project led by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, has faced new regulatory scrutiny in Thailand. Thai authorities raided an iris scanning location allegedly operated by Worldcoin, the SEC announced a joint operation with the CCIB to investigate the platform’s activities. The raid follows allegations that Worldcoin operated without proper licensing, potentially violating local digital asset laws. 102 World orb locations operate across Thailand, and the SEC has reported suspects were arrested for this alleged offense. World states it distributes WLD tokens only in jurisdictions where legal requirements allow and emphasizes its lack of responsibility for token availability on third-party platforms.
