  • Worldcoin price jumped by 180% from its lowest point this year.
  • The WLD token is rising ahead of the OpenAI IPO.
  • Technical analysis points to more gains, potentially to $1.

WorldCoin price has emerged as one of the best-performing tokens in the crypto industry this month. WLD continued its rally, reaching its highest point since November 2025. It has jumped by over 180% from its lowest point this year, and this trend may continue ahead of the OpenAI IPO later this year.

WorldCoin Price is Surging Ahead of Major Token Changes and OpenAI IPO

There are three main reasons why the WLD coin is in a strong bull run this week. The first is that the broader crypto market is benefiting from risk-on sentiment following the recent US-Iran deal.

This deal has led to lower crude oil prices and bond yields, a sign that investors anticipate that the Fed will not be in a hurry to cut interest rates. This explains why other assets, like stocks and bonds, have continued to rise this week.

Second, Worldcoin price has soared as investors react to the successful SpaceX IPO and the anticipation that OpenAI’s will be equally good. SpaceX stock has jumped by double digits in the past two days. It also announced it was acquiring Cursor in a $60 billion deal, a sign of strong demand for AI assets.

OpenAI and Worldcoin are related in that they were formed by the same person: Sam Altman. As such, investors believe the two companies will ultimately collaborate as demand for AI agents has soared. 

Third, Worldcoin will go through a major revamp of its tokenization. The daily emissions will be cut by 43% in July, reducing the network’s inflation rate. 

These events have led to a surge in demand for the token. Data shows that the 24-hour volume jumped by 30% in the last 24 hours to over $1.3 billion. Its volume-to-market cap ratio has jumped to 60%. Similarly, the same action is happening in the futures market, where the futures open interest soared to over $511 million. Its weighted funding rate has remained in the green area in the past few days.

WLD Price Technical Analysis

The daily chart shows that the WLD token price has soared from a low of $0.2287 in May to a high of $0.6743. It has formed a mini golden cross pattern as the 100- and 50-day moving averages have crossed.

The coin has formed a cup-and-handle or a rounded bottom pattern. These patterns are some of the most bullish signs in technical analysis. Also, the Average Directional Index (ADX) has continued rising, a sign that it is gaining momentum.

Therefore, the most likely scenario is that it continues to rise, with the next key target at $1, which is about 58% above the current level.
