The foundation confirmed that its issuance arm, World Assets Ltd., completed $65 million worth of OTC sales to four private counterparties. (Source: Cointelegraph via TradingView)
The tokens were sold at an average price of around $0.2719, implying roughly 239 million WLD entered the market. Out of the total, $25 million worth of tokens carry a six-month lockup, while the rest became liquid immediately.
The timing aligned with WLD hitting a new low near $0.24 before stabilizing slightly above $0.27. (Source: Unchained)
World Foundation oversees the Worldcoin project, co-founded by Sam Altman, which focuses on biometric identity through iris-scanning Orbs. The project launched with strong momentum in 2023, positioning itself as a global identity and distribution layer.
WLD peaked near $11.82 in March 2024, but the trajectory since then has been one-directional. Unlock schedules, regulatory scrutiny, and weak organic demand have consistently weighed on price.
Earlier funding rounds told a very different story. In May 2025, tokens were sold to major investors at roughly $1.13, making the current OTC pricing a steep reset in valuation.

Selling at these levels signals a shift in priorities. The foundation is choosing operational runway over defending token price. That is not unusual for long-term projects, but the timing matters.
The sale introduces fresh supply at a moment when confidence is already fragile. It also reinforces a pattern where supply expansion continues to outpace demand growth. With a major unlock scheduled for July 2026 covering a large share of total supply, the market is now pricing in continued pressure rather than scarcity.
The foundation avoided open-market selling by using OTC block trades. This allows large buyers to acquire tokens without immediately impacting exchange liquidity.
At the same time, it does not remove selling pressure entirely. Unlocked tokens can still find their way into the market over time.
The partial lockup offers some short-term stability, but the majority of the allocation remains liquid. All transactions are routed through the foundation’s multisig wallet, maintaining transparency on-chain.
The core issue is not just supply. It is demand. Worldcoin’s model depends on real adoption of its identity system, not just token distribution. So far, growth has faced friction.
Regulatory pushback in multiple countries has slowed Orb deployments, while privacy concerns continue to limit broader acceptance. Without stronger usage beyond onboarding incentives, the token struggles to maintain value as supply expands.
