Worldcoin (WLD) has bounced sharply from a low accumulation zone, drawing fresh attention from traders and analysts. The recovery has been driven by a mix of technical buying, institutional disclosure, and ongoing AI-sector enthusiasm linked to co-founder Sam Altman.

WLD was trading at $0.4977 at the time of writing, with a 24-hour trading volume of $654.1 million and a market cap of $1.69 billion. The token posted a 24-hour gain of around 7.32% before pulling back slightly.

Crypto analyst Crypto Patel noted that WLD had been trapped in an accumulation zone between $0.14 and $0.24 for an extended period. From those lows, the price staged a recovery of nearly 180%, reaching a peak of $0.6317 before settling near $0.50.

This recovery follows a drawdown of almost 98% from WLD’s all-time high, which set the stage for the current rebound.

Institutional Backing Adds Fuel

A key catalyst for the recent move was a disclosure from Eightco Holdings. The company revealed it holds around 283.45 million WLD tokens, equal to roughly 8.4% of the circulating supply.

Eightco framed this as its largest allocation in the “digital identity + AI” sector. The announcement appeared to trigger momentum buying and helped shape the bullish narrative around WLD.

Analyst Crypto Tolga posted on X that WLD is showing a strong recovery within a descending channel. He said that if channel resistance breaks to the upside and price holds above it, he expects bullish momentum to accelerate — with a confirmed breakout potentially opening the door to a Fibonacci 1.618 target around $9.

WLD has also been one of the highest-volume coins on the South Korean exchange Upbit for several days. When one regional exchange dominates price discovery, small bursts of buying or selling can create sharp short-term moves.

Volume Rises, Open Interest Stays Flat

Trading volume for Worldcoin rose 8.57% to $1.08 billion over the period, pointing to growing participation.

Open interest held steady at $416.23 million. This lack of change suggests the market is not seeing large-scale new positions being opened or closed.

WLD’s connection to Sam Altman, who co-founded both OpenAI and Worldcoin, continues to attract attention when AI narratives gain traction. Commentary around OpenAI’s Sora model has been cited as a contributing factor in the latest leg up.

Analysts are watching levels of $0.63, $2, $5, and $10 as potential targets if buying pressure continues.

WLD open interest remained at $416.23 million as of the latest data from Coinglass.
