A Kenyan government minister said the country has encountered pressure from the U.S. government to lift its suspension on Worldcoin’s activities.
Kenya’s Interior secretary said the country rejected a request from the United States government to revoke its suspension of operations for the cryptocurrency project Worldcoin.
According to local media outlet Business Daily Africa, Cabinet Secretary of Interior and Administration of National Government, Kithure Kindiki, told parliament that the government will not lift the suspension it imposed in August 2023 on the activities of Worldcoin.
Kindiki said the suspension would remain in effect until assurances of the safety and integrity of financial deals are provided.
