The cryptocurrency Worldcoin (WLD) has seen a dramatic price increase, surging 75% over the past five days, with a significant 38% increase in the last 24 hours. According to DeFi^2 (@DefiSquared), the number one ranked trader on Bybit and a top 10 wallet on DeBank, this price movement is not merely speculative but indicative of potential market manipulation, timed with upcoming insider unlocks.<\/p>\n

The Worldcoin Cash Grab<\/h2>\n

In a post<\/a> shared via X, the top trader DeFi^2 has brought to light concerning details<\/a> about Worldcoin’s market activities ahead of its planned insider token unlocks. With only 2.7% of WLD\u2019s total supply currently in circulation, the smallest percentage in the industry at unlock time, the concerns center around how the Worldcoin team has managed to maintain a staggering $30 billion fully diluted valuation (FDV).<\/p>\n

“Worldcoin is projected to commence insider unlocks in 7 days at one of the lowest floats ever recorded in the industry,” DeFi^2 wrote. “This research piece brings to light exactly how the team is controlling the price to still carry a $30 billion fully diluted valuation as insider unlocks begin, while falsely claiming to have no involvement.”<\/p>\n

Worldcoin was initially launched with a 1.4% circulating supply, or 140 million WLD. Out of this, 100 million tokens were assigned to market makers with call options that allowed them to buy back a significant number of tokens at a preset price of slightly over $2. This was strategically aimed at dampening any sudden price spikes.<\/p>\n

On “The Scoop Podcast,” Alex Blania, CEO of Worldcoin, openly discussed these tactics, stating they were crucial in preventing the price from soaring, which could potentially disrupt the market. “The intent to avoid the price spiking to $10,” Blania explained, “is paramount, as such an event would be horrific for our strategic market positioning.”<\/p>\n

However, by December 16th, the situation dramatically shifted when Worldcoin opted not to renew its market maker contract. This led to the removal of the call option and a concurrent reduction in WLD\u2019s circulation by an additional 25 million tokens. The immediate aftermath saw the price double within hours, a scenario Blania had previously indicated the company intended to avoid.<\/p>\n

During the Token2049 conference in Dubai, Blania reiterated that Worldcoin does not manipulate market prices, attributing fluctuations to natural market forces. This statement starkly contradicts the evident effects of the team\u2019s strategic decisions regarding tokenomics and market maker contracts.<\/p>\n

DeFi^2 emphasizes, “An 11-figure valuation is only possible due to the team’s deliberate design of tokenomics, and the daily price movements have often been influenced by well-timed announcements and policy adjustments made by the team.”<\/p>\n

Market Manipulation<\/h2>\n

The Worldcoin framework, which was ostensibly designed to facilitate universal basic income<\/a> (UBI), seems to be primarily benefiting insiders rather than the intended recipients. Current projections show that nearly a billion tokens are slated for emission to team members and venture capitalists within the next year, whereas only about 600 million tokens are expected to be distributed to UBI recipients in the same timeframe.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis means that within a year, insider emitted WLD is expected to make up over 60% of the entire circulating supply of Worldcoin. 60% is a wild proportion- it basically means the majority of the ecosystem purely exists for VCs to dump. This seems to directly counter the justification that the float is being left low right now to benefit UBI recipients,\u201d the trader writes.<\/p>\n

Orb Operators, tasked with collecting biometric data, have also been a significant source of circulating supply, with some reportedly sending upwards of 20,000 WLD per week to exchanges like Binance. This situation became particularly pronounced when WLD\u2019s price spiked to $12 in March, with substantial quantities of WLD being moved to exchanges every few days.<\/p>\n

Retail investors, particularly in Korea, where 25% of the circulating supply is held, are increasingly vulnerable. Many of these investors are likely unaware of the intricate dynamics at play, holding tokens at nearly $30 billion FDV, a valuation propped up by the positive news released strategically a week before the unlocks.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s likely no coincidence that Worldcoin waited until 1 week before unlocks to release positive news<\/a>. Despite being only a small change to unlock selling pressure, the news has proven incredibly effective so far in coercing retail to unwittingly provide higher prices and more liquidity for insiders to exit in a week’s time. Worse still, it appears likely (but not proven) that someone from the team or VCs used insider information to frontrun buying the news before it was even publicly announced,\u201d @DefiSquared claims.<\/p>\n

He concludes with a stern warning: “This piece is intended to shed light on a project that appears to be intentionally propping up a token price that should be lower, and many of the reasons outlined are why I intend to be short WLD over the months following the start of unlocks.”<\/p>\n

At press time, WLD traded at $3.22.<\/p>\n

Through his extensive work with ktsl888.com and Bitcoinist.com, Jake has become a trusted voice in the crypto community, guiding newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike towards a deeper understanding of this dynamic field. His mission is simple yet profound: to demystify Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and make them accessible to everyone. With a professional career in the Bitcoin and crypto scene that began right after graduating with a degree in Information Systems in 2017, Jake has immersed himself in the industry. Jake joined the NewsBTC Group in late 2022. His educational background provides him with the technical prowess and analytical skills necessary to dissect complex topics and present them in an understandable format. Whether you are a casual reader curious about Bitcoin or an investor seeking to navigate the latest market trends, Jake\u2019s insights offer valuable perspectives that bridge the gap between complex technology and everyday usage. Jake is not just a reporter on technological trends; he is a firm believer in the transformative potential of Bitcoin over traditional fiat currencies. To him, the current financial system is on the brink of chaos, propelled by unchecked government actions and flawed Keynesian economic policies. Drawing from the principles of the Austrian school of economics, Jake views Bitcoin not merely as a digital asset but as a crucial step towards rectifying a failing monetary system. His libertarian views reinforce his stance that just as the church was separated from the state, so too should money be freed from governmental control. For Jake, Bitcoin represents more than just an investment; it's a peaceful revolution. He envisions a future where Bitcoin fosters a sustainable and responsible financial framework for generations to come. His advocacy is not about opposition but about evolution, about laying the groundwork for a system that prioritizes transparency and equity over secrecy and inequality. As a journalist, Jake\u2019s articles are crafted with the precision of a scholar and the passion of a true believer. He provides not only news but also thoughtful analysis that connects the dots between daily developments and larger economic theories. His work is a beacon for those lost in the technical jargon often associated with crypto discussions, illuminating the practical implications and benefits of these technologies. In summary, Jake Simmons is not just reporting on a revolution; he wants to be part of it, fully committed to enhancing public understanding and adoption of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. His work is more than just a collection of articles; it\u2019s a resource, a guide, and a companion for anyone ready to explore the potential of this digital frontier. Whether you are taking your first steps into crypto or are a veteran looking to stay on top of the latest trends, Jake\u2019s insights provide clarity and foresight in an often unpredictable industry.
