Meanwhile, it is a different ball game for Argentina. Worldcoin recently claimed that its project received a warmer reception from Argentinians. It mentioned that nearly 10,000 persons willingly signed up for Worldcoin Orb verification in one day. However, the craze around Worldcoin in Argentina barely impacted WLD positively.
