Worldcoin launch raises eyebrows as WLD price notches a double-digit gain
Worldcoin price soared to $3.58 shortly after launching but traders and crypto advocates have many concerns.
Worldcoin (WLD), the native token of the “” project founded by OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman, soared after listing on major crypto exchanges on July 24.
At the time of writing, WLD trades at $2.22, reflecting a 33% gain on the day. Despite criticism from nearly every corner of the crypto sector, WLD’s one-day performance eclipses that of Bitcoin (), Ether (), XRP () and the remainder of the crypto market, which has sold off.
For many traders, one area of concern is WLD’s circulating supply versus its supply cap. With only 1% of the total supply currently in circulation, Worldcoin has a fully diluted market capitalization that exceeds $22 billion.
