Worldcoin Price Breaks Key Resistance Amid Orb Expansion
The World Foundation indicated that the money will be used to grow their Orb biometric equipment in the United States and around the world. Iris-scanning is one way people obtain personal World IDs at registration. Over 26 million users have signed up for Worldcoin, and 12.5 million of them have now received an Orb-verified ID.
At present, the price of WLD is testing the upper line of a 1.5-year downward channel and could break out upwards. Analysts believe that if the price closes above the current resistance each day, the market could move toward $2 in price. A fall in the Bitcoin price may push WLD to revisit previous levels soon.
Worldcoin’s price remains nearly 90% below its all-time high despite the rally. The current increase in funding and users is seen as a sign that the company is recovering. Broadly, the crypto sector is also advancing, with prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum increasing past $110,000 and $3,000, respectively.
A16Z and Bain just bought $135m of Worldcoin (WLD) at the current market price … a price that is down 90% over the past 14 months. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen something like that. Intriguing tbh.

WLD Price Rally: Is $2 Possible?
The price of Worldcoin has gone higher after a bullish breakout to above $1.50. The Relative Strength Indicator (RSI) stands at 64, signaling nearing overbought conditions. The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) is positive at 0.10, indicating that buying momentum remains dominant.
The $1.50 zone stands as possible support and acted as resistance above before being taken over by demand. A fall below this point could lead WLD back to trading at $1.35. If bulls improve their market position, the next challenges for them are at $1.80 and $2.00.
