Worldcoin Price Surge
Today, Worldcoin (WLD) showed a price increase of 6.20%, reaching $1.49. The token's market capitalization rose to $648 million. This is an impressive figure, but...
Historical Performance
Despite today's price increase, Worldcoin's overall performance is less than stellar. Since reaching an all-time high of $11.97 on March 11, 2024, during the height of the AI and ChatGPT hype, the token's price has plummeted by 85%.
Tokenomics Concerns
Amid this backdrop, concerns over Worldcoin's tokenomics have been raised by some investors. Crypto investor @AltbriMarius expressed serious doubts about the sustainability of Worldcoin's economic model: "$WLD has the bad tokenomics right now. $WLD currently has a daily unlock of 3.4 million tokens ($4.75 million) and a monthly unlock of 102 million tokens ($140 million). Worldcoin investors receive 1.3 million WLD daily and the Worldcoin team receives 1.8 million tokens daily. That's a high sell pressure of $140 million monthly considering that $WLD's circulating market cap is only $600 million. I think short-term pump and dumps should be expected more often on $WLD to attract buyers for exit liquidity but for long-term price forecast..." This quote highlights the potential risks associated with Worldcoin's current token distribution strategy.
While the recent price increase may offer some optimism to short-term traders, the sustainability of WLD's value remains uncertain in the eyes of some investors. How Worldcoin manages these tokenomics challenges will likely play a crucial role in its future success.
