In a statement, Dennis Itumba, a political strategist and digital journalist in Kenya declared his willingness to take whatever action necessary to ensure that Worldcoin begin operations in Kenya again, emphasizing Worldcoin's future impact on the Kenyan economy. .

"I am going to put up a fight in all the relevant tables to ensure Worldcoin comes back to Kenya because when World Coin was here before it was banned, it was only 7 shillings. Today it is 48 shillings, and in a year or so, I foresee World Coin going to 2,000 bob. When there will be a mentorship session 7 years from now and people are speaking, you will remember that it was 7 bob when you first heard about it, and it is 9 million by the time you are presenting" Dennis said.

Recall that in the fourth quarter of 2023, Worldcoin was banned by the Kenyan government due to privacy concerns, particularly regarding their method of data collection. This method involved scanning the irises of Kenyan citizens and rewarding them with $50 afterward. This ban followed Worldcoin's earlier suspension in August.

Since the ban, no updates have been given regarding the reinstatement of Worldcoin until Dennis Itumbi's speech. It is not known whether the Kenyan government has finalized its regulatory plans for crypto assets as promised earlier.
