Worldcoin (WLD) live price dashboard

World, called Worldcoin until October 2024, is an identity and payments network built by Tools for Humanity, the company Sam Altman and Alex Blania co-founded. People scan their iris with a device called the Orb to get a World ID that proves they are a unique human. WLD launched in July 2023 and also runs on World Chain, an Ethereum layer-2 built on the OP Stack.

Tools for Humanity was founded in 2019, and the protocol left beta on July 24, 2023. The Orb photographs a person's iris, turns it into a code and checks that nobody has signed up with it before. World says the raw images are deleted after processing. People who verify can claim WLD grants.

WLD is capped at 10 billion for 15 years by the token contract. After that, governance may add up to 1.5 percent a year. The team and investor share, roughly a quarter of supply, was meant to vest over three years. In July 2024 Tools for Humanity stretched that to five, so insider tokens now release daily until July 2028.

Kenya suspended sign-ups in August 2023, and Spain and Portugal ordered halts in March 2024. WLD also trades on OpenAI headlines because of Altman, whether or not the news has anything to do with World.
