    Worldcoin Price Prediction: Up 50% in Days as OpenAI Buzz Explodes – Is a Violent Second Pump About to Hit?

    The early week saw a huge buy-the-rumour trade send WLD up 50%, with a potential OpenAI partnership driving big bets on Worldcoin’s price predictions.

    Market participants are taking out positions on the altcoin ahead of reports that OpenAI is considering Worldcoin’s iris scan technology for a new social platform focused on proof of personhood.

    JUST IN: OpenAI is quietly building a social network and considering using biometric verification like World’s eyeball scanning orb or Apple’s Face ID to ensure its users are people, not bots.

    Smaller whales, the 1-10 million WLD cohort, drove the rally. Over the past 24 hours, their holdings increased by about 2.6 million WLD, worth roughly $1.4 million at current prices.

    On-chain data shows smaller whales drove the immediate rally. Wallets holding 1–10 million WLD accumulated roughly 2.6 million tokens during Wednesday trading, worth about $1.4 million.

    Larger whales, the 10-100 million WLD cohort, began much before the rumour. Since January 15, they added over 30 million tokens, bringing their holdings to a total of 1.7 billion.

    That timing matters. The market was already turning before the OpenAI narrative emerged. The rumour acted as an accelerant, not the base.

    With this existing strength, the sharp post-pump pullback may not mark the end of the move.

    Worldcoin Price Prediction: More Violent Upside Ahead?

    The charts reflect this strength. Momentum has been building for a breakout against the descending channel it has consolidated in over the past 5 months.

    The buy-the-rumour reaction was enough to trigger a retest, though it ended in rejection.

    But momentum indicators show a fresh attempt could have been building for a while now. The RSI was already on track to hit the 30 oversold threshold that typically marks local bottoms.

    While the MACD did form a golden cross with the push from the pump, its previous slow uptrend towards the signal line shows that strength was already building.

    Once things cool down again, this path could resume.

    The $0.60 level is the immediate resistance to watch for a confirmed breakout push.

    If it can find firmer and higher support here, a fresh uptrend could reclaim a historically decisive level at $160, marking a 240% move.

    And if the OpenAI reports prove true, the mainstream outlet for real-world adoption could push the Worldcoin price towards previous highs around $4.25, marking a potential 830% move.

    Maxi Doge: Next Dogecoin Presale?

    When capital rotation turns selective and risk appetite fades, it becomes harder to position early. Major narratives, like OpenAI partnerships, are often needed just to spark movement.

    But history shows one constant: momentum always finds its way back to Doge-themed meme coins.

    The pattern is clear. Dogecoin led the charge, Shiba Inu followed in 2021, then came Floki, Bonk, Dogwifhat, and Neiro. Every bull cycle eventually sees capital rotate into a new Doge-inspired frontrunner.

    This time around, Maxi Doge ($MAXI) is tapping into those same early Dogecoin vibes with a community built around sharing early alpha, trading ideas, and competitive engagement.

    Participation is at its core. Weekly Maxi Ripped and Maxi Pump competitions reward top performers with leaderboard recognition, incentives, and bragging rights that keep momentum alive.

    The hype is already showing in the numbers. The $MAXI presale has raised almost $4.5 million, while early backers are earning up to 69% APY through staking rewards.

    For those who missed the Doge wave before, Maxi Doge could be the next chance to catch a meme coin before it enters the mainstream.
