Worldcoin gains momentum from OpenAI and Eightco treasury bonds
The Worldcoin (WLD) token from the digital identity network rose by 2.7% on Wednesday, outpacing the overall cryptocurrency market.
Although WLD has dropped 15% over the past week, its current price of $1.34 remains significantly above its 50-, 100-, and 200-day moving averages.

The token continues to be driven by hot September news, such as Eightco’s $250 million treasury bond issuance on September 11 to establish a WLD treasury. Such announcements tend to reduce selling pressure, positively impacting price. Following Eightco’s move, WLD briefly spiked to $1.69 before gradually returning to its typical levels this year.
Additionally, Worldcoin is gaining momentum from OpenAI, whose founder Sam Altman also co-founded the crypto project. This week, OpenAI announced a $100 billion strategic partnership with Nvidia, helping soften WLD’s decline and pushing it back into growth.
On the technical side, indicators remain mostly bearish. RSI stands at 59.84, while MACD is negative at -0.045. At present, the 20-day SMA at $1.48 serves as key resistance, while the 100- and 200-day averages between $1.03 and $1.17 provide strong support.
Altseason contender
Worldcoin’s explosive rally demonstrated strong investor interest in biometric identification, positioning WLD as a contender in the upcoming altcoin season.
Positive regulatory developments or broader institutional adoption could push WLD higher. Conversely, a general market downturn could intensify bearish trends and drag WLD down to $1 or lower.
