WLD has quietly surged nearly 5%, is the market repricing the 'Proof of Personhood'?
The controversy surrounding the Worldcoin project has long outshone its price gains.
The core logic is simple: use the Orb to scan irises, proving you’re a real person and not a bot, then receive WLD tokens. The founder, Sam Altman (yes, the co-founder of OpenAI), believes that in the age of AI, distinguishing between humans and AI will become increasingly valuable.
This latest pump might be catalyzed by two factors:
1. Sam Altman has recently been publicly backing Worldcoin, leading the market to reprice the 'Sam Effect';
2. The deployment of Orb verification devices has surpassed 1,500 globally, with over 2 million verified users, improving the narrative data.
However, real controversies persist: privacy groups have consistently questioned the security of the iris data collected by the Orb, and several countries (including Kenya and Brazil) have briefly banned Worldcoin's operations.
Currently, WLD is ranked around
#54 in market cap, still a good distance from its last peak. The narrative is unique, but regulatory risks are a long-term variable.
The above is just my personal opinion and should not be considered as any investment advice.
