Worldcoin WLD

What WLD actually is on-chain

Worldcoin is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0x163f8c2467924be0ae7b5347228cabf260318753. That address, not the ticker WLD, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself WLD, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, WLD is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in WLD itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Uniswap-style AMM pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need ETH in the same wallet to move the token at all, and a quoted price taken from a pool is a pool price — it includes slippage that an order-book quote would not.

For WLD the project publishes a whitepaper and an active account as @worldcoin. That is a partial paper trail — enough to check claims against, not enough to audit. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where WLD sits in the market

At #78, Worldcoin sits in the bottom of the large-cap band, adjacent to the mid-cap cut-off. Down here the large-cap label is doing less work than it appears to. WLD is one revision away from the mid-cap band, and the practical consequences of crossing that line — index eligibility, market-maker commitments, how much size the book absorbs — change well before the ranking does.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 6 live WLD order books (Binance, Gate.io, MEXC, HTX, Upbit, Bithumb). That is coverage in line with a #78 ranking: enough books to cross-check a quote, few enough that one of them can dominate price formation for hours at a time. One of them is a Korean won market, so the Kimchi-premium spread between the KRW and USDT quote is visible on this page.

WLD against its all-time high

WLD is down more than 95% from its $11.74 peak (on 2024-03-10), leaving a 29.1x gap to reclaim. A drawdown this deep strips the record of analytical use: the supply structure, the holder base and usually the market cycle behind that print no longer exist. For WLD the informative reference is the downside, which makes the range section below more relevant than this one. That high was set 3 years ago, recently enough that it still anchors how most current holders frame the asset.

WLD across its historical range

The recorded range runs 50.6x, from $0.2322 to $11.74 — wide by the standards of traditional assets, moderate for this one's class.

WLD trades within 73.6% of the all-time low of $0.2322 set on 2026-05-02. Below that mark the chart is blank — no prior trading means no support level to cite, no volume shelf and no cluster of cost basis to lean on. Because that low is itself recent, the asset is in an active downtrend rather than sitting at an old floor — each new low invalidates the previous one as a reference.

WLD supply structure

WLD is capped at 10.00 billion WLD, of which only 3.34 billion is circulating — 33.4% issued, leaving 6.66 billion still to come. At that ratio the emission schedule is a primary driver of the supply story, not a footnote: new supply arrives continuously and has to be absorbed by new demand before price can hold a level.

What kind of asset WLD is

Worldcoin is a base-layer network, so WLD is simultaneously the chain's security budget and its unit of account rather than a claim on a business. Value accrual runs through validator economics and through whatever activity settles on the chain itself.

CoinGecko files WLD under 10 categories, including Ethereum Ecosystem, Decentralized Identifier (DID), Optimism Ecosystem, Coinbase Ventures Portfolio, Multicoin Capital Portfolio. CoinGecko also records deployments on Ethereum (3,072 tracked tokens), Optimism (125 tracked tokens), so on-chain liquidity is split across several networks and the cheapest venue depends on which deployment you are trading. Worth flagging from the metadata: WLD appears in the Multicoin Capital portfolio, and appears in the Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) portfolio.
