Worldcoin Token Price Spikes on AI Hype Before Volatile Swings
• Worldcoin is a crypto project co-founded by Sam Altman that aims to verify global population's "personhood" and build a universal basic income system.
• Its native token, WLD, recently hit an all-time high of $9.11 as hype around AI and companies like OpenAI boosted interest.
• Worldcoin positions itself as a hedge against AI problems like bots, with its "proof of personhood" system able to authenticate real humans.
• The token price has been volatile, fluctuating between $2-$4 until last week when announcements from OpenAI and Nvidia drove a surge.
• Worldcoin aims to onboard the majority of the global population but so far has only verified 3.6 million people.
