Pudgy Penguins Price: What's Going On and the Trump Connection?

So, "proof of human" IDs are coming to FIFA, NFL, and even Pudgy Penguins games? Give me a break. We're scanning eyeballs now to make sure you're not a bot while you virtually kick a ball around? This is where we're at?

Eyeball Scans and Web3 Dreams

Worldcoin, that Sam Altman-backed project that wants to scan everyone's eyeballs in exchange for crypto, is teaming up with Mythical Games. Mythical makes "NFL Rivals," "FIFA Rivals," and some Pudgy Penguins thing called "Pudgy Party." Apparently, they're going to use Worldcoin's "proof of human" ID tech to make sure only real humans are playing their games. Sam Altman-backed World's 'proof of human' IDs coming to FIFA, NFL and Pudgy Penguins games.

Their official statement says bots "manipulate in-game economies" and "gain an unfair advantage." Oh noes! Can't have those pesky bots ruining the virtual fun, can we?

I gotta ask: are we really that worried about bots in Pudgy Penguins? I mean, seriously? What's at stake here? Bragging rights? A slightly higher score? The fate of the free world? It's freakin' Pudgy Penguins.

And 75% of gamers think bots are making games less fun, according to a Worldcoin study? Color me skeptical. You know who else funds "studies" that conveniently support their agenda? Everyone.

Worldcoin claims over 17 million users have already signed up for their eyeball-scanning service. Seventeen million people willingly let a company scan their retinas? That's either a testament to the power of free crypto, or a sign that we're all doomed. Prolly both.

Pudgy Penguins: From NFTs to...Eyeball Scans?

Speaking of Pudgy Penguins, what a wild ride that's been. Remember when those penguin NFTs were all the rage? Now they've got their own token, PENGU, which apparently peaked at around $0.06845 back in December 2024. Now, it's hovering somewhere between $0.021 and $0.031. Ouch.

So, the Pudgy Penguins coin price history is a classic tale of hype and dump. Early demand, rapid peak, and then...reality. It's a "highly speculative token tied heavily to brand and community sentiment," as the experts say. Translation: it's worth whatever people think it's worth, which could be zero tomorrow.

And now, these penguins are somehow involved in global identity verification schemes. What a time to be alive.

Mythical is also launching its MYTHOS chain on the Worldcoin network, making it the first Layer 3 blockchain built on World Chain. I honestly don't know what that means, and frankly, I don't care. It sounds like more Web3 mumbo jumbo designed to separate you from your money.

I'm just trying to picture the scene at a FIFA tournament. Sweaty teenagers, Mountain Dew flowing, and...an eyeball-scanning station in the corner? "Gotta prove you're human before you can score that virtual goal, kid!"

Offcourse, the idea here is to somehow "ensure those economies stay fair and transparent." I mean, in theory. But I'm sure that the only thing that is going to be fair is that the company is going to make a lot more money.

The Bigger Picture: Privacy and Control

Let's be real: this isn't about stopping bots in FIFA. It's about normalizing biometric data collection. It's about building a world where every aspect of your life is tied to your digital identity, and that identity is controlled by corporations and governments.

What happens when your World ID gets hacked? What happens when it's used to track your gaming habits, your spending habits, your everything? What happens when you can't play FIFA, or buy groceries, or access basic services because your "proof of humanity" is revoked?

I know, I know, I sound like a conspiracy theorist. But give it a few years. We'll see who's laughing then. Or maybe I'm just paranoid...nah.
