- Whale wallets added 310,000 WLD, boosting bullish momentum.
- Worldcoin adoption surges with 456,000 new World App users in a week.
- Key resistance at $1.40 could open the path toward $1.50–$2.00.
Worldcoin (WLD) has leapt 22% in the past 24 hours, lifting the token above $1.20 and putting traders on alert for more upside.
The price surge marks one of its sharpest rallies since April and has sparked speculation over whether WLD could finally break through key resistance levels.
The trading volumes also surged past $1 billion, more than tripling from earlier in the week, a sign of renewed interest from both speculative traders and long-term holders.
Whales step back in
Big investors appear to be leading the charge.
Data from Santiment shows whale wallets added around 310,000 WLD in the past 24 hours, boosting large holder balances by 4.5%.
That kind of accumulation often fuels follow-up retail demand, creating momentum that can sustain rallies beyond the short term.
Notably, the renewed whale interest came just days after Worldcoin introduced its Anonymised Multi-Party Computation initiative, aimed at strengthening its biometric verification system with stronger privacy and quantum resistance.
The announcement has been welcomed as a step toward addressing the project’s biggest controversies and may be drawing big money back to the token.
Worldcoin adoption numbers are promising
Worldcoin’s rally is not just about whales. Adoption metrics show steady growth, reinforcing the bullish case.
More than 238,000 new people verified their identities on the network in the past week, while the World App added 456,000 users, bringing the total close to 34 million.
Activity on the chain is also holding up. The project processed 15.7 million transactions in just seven days, averaging around 2 million a day.
That kind of usage helps counter arguments that the token’s moves are purely speculative.
Recent partnerships with Razer and Match Group have also raised visibility, even as regulators continue to keep the project under scrutiny.
WLD price prediction
The WLD price recently broke out of a falling wedge on the daily chart, while a larger cup-and-handle pattern has been developing since May.
These patterns are typically seen as bullish continuation signals.
The token has already cleared the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at $1.106, and if it closes above that level, the next target sits near $1.21.
That zone lines up with the 50% retracement and could act as a springboard toward the bigger test at $1.40 to $1.50.
Momentum indicators back the move. The MACD shows a fresh crossover to the upside, and the RSI has climbed to 57, showing strong buying without yet tipping into extreme overbought territory.
A decisive breakout above $1.40 could unlock room for a run toward $2.04 in the weeks ahead.
Risks haven’t gone away
While the technical analysis shows the altcoin is poised for more gains, there are some risks.
The circulating supply has grown by almost 20% since May, adding steady sell pressure that could cap gains.
Spot trading volumes have also been volatile, down sharply over the past month even as derivatives open interest increased, a combination that can fuel sudden reversals.
Regulation also looms large. Authorities in China issued warnings in August over biometric data concerns, while European regulators continue to investigate privacy risks.
Fresh pressure from watchdogs could dampen adoption and weigh on investor sentiment, even if the charts remain constructive.
