Worldcoin was launched by Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, the company responsible for ChatGPT, a chatbot and virtual assistant widely credited as leading today’s AI boom.
The rumors first surfaced in the middle of the week and remain unverified, but they’ve had a notably catalytic effect on WLD’s price, which is up 4.5% in the last 24 hours and 8.1% in the last week to trade at $5.12 as of this writing.
Worldcoin’s performance outpaces market leaders Bitcoin ($BTC) and Ethereum ($ETH), which are both down about 2% from this time last week.
Broadly speaking, Worldcoin’s support has been growing from $4 to $4.50 after the token tumbled from an all-time high of $11.74 on March 10.
The ATH was set in the midst of Bitcoin’s most recent rally, which also saw the world’s favorite cryptocurrency hit a new high watermark of $73,737.94, four days after Worldcoin.

Since then, Altman’s token has yet to sustain a price level above $6. The recent rumor-related buying has temporarily inflated the price, but with an RSI approaching 70, it will be hard to sustain the rally over the short-to-mid-term.
A buy-the-rumors-sell-the-news sentiment could mean further losses incoming after June 6, even if a ChatGPT update does materialize.
Sam Altman’s Controversial Mission to Bank The Unbanked
To this day, Worldcoin’s premise excites some and unnerves others.
In the first place, to obtain $WLD one has to visit a biometric eyeball scanner called the ”Orb” and submit a snapshot of their eyeballs.
There are orbs in Berlin, Dubai, London, Mexico City, Miami, New York City, San Francisco, Seoul, and Tokyo.
The biometric data is then used alongside verification of government-issued ID to confirm a user’s personhood before distributing coins to them.
OpenAI says Worldcoin is building blockchain infrastructure to bank the world’s unbanked, enabling everyone “to broadly share the coming technological prosperity ” according to its website.
“Privacy-first. Owned by everyone.” reads the slogan.

But many are skeptical, including Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin who wrote a blog post listing his concerns of the protocol’s privacy, accessibility, centralization and security and said it could take years for it to work.
Lawmakers around the world are also monitoring the protocol, with press reports suggesting authorities in Mexico, Malaysia and Argentina have all aired similar concerns recently.
This year the project hit a new high back in January when it welcomed 16,000 Orb signups in a single day after surpassing the 5 million mark the preceding month.
