(SeaPRwire) –   World Assets, a subsidiary of the World Foundation, has finalized $65 million in over-the-counter WLD token sales with four counterparties over the past week. The first settlement occurred on March 20, 2026.

The tokens were sold at an average price of roughly $0.2719 per token, meaning a total of approximately 239 million WLD tokens were transacted. The deals were processed via a designated multisig wallet belonging to World Assets.

Of the $65 million raised, tokens worth $25 million are subject to a six-month lockup period. This restriction limits how quickly these tokens can be resold on the open market.

The funds are allocated for core operations, research and development, manufacturing of Orb devices, and broader development of the ecosystem.

On-chain analytics firm Lookonchain had earlier noted a transfer of 117 million WLD tokens—valued at around $39 million—to Binance and FalconX on March 21. In return, the project received approximately $35 million in USDC, indicating a sale price close to $0.30 at that time.

The Coin Bureau analyst account on X shared the news, stating that World Foundation finalized OTC sales totaling $65M with four counterparties, with tokens sold at around $0.2719 each and $25M locked for six months.

This aligns with a trend of WLD treasury sales. In April 2024, the then-named Worldcoin Foundation intended to sell between 0.5 million and 1.5 million WLD tokens per week to institutional firms. In May 2025, the project secured $135 million from backers including Andreessen Horowitz and Bain Capital Crypto.

The recent OTC price of $0.2719 is significantly lower than these previous fundraising rounds. WLD was trading at $1.13 during the May 2025 raise and $5.43 at the time of the April 2024 announcement.

WLD Price Hits All-Time Low

WLD reached an all-time low of approximately $0.2444 on Saturday. At the time of writing, the token is trading around $0.27. It has dropped by roughly 97% from its peak of nearly $11.82 in March 2024.

WLD currently has a market capitalization of about $850 million and a fully diluted valuation of approximately $2.7 billion.

Major Token Unlock Approaching

According to DefiLlama data, a large community token unlock is scheduled for July 23, 2026. This event will release roughly 52.5% of WLD’s total 10 billion token supply—equivalent to about 169% of the current float—with tokens vesting at a rate of approximately 4.79 million WLD per day.

Nasdaq-listed Eightco Holdings, which established a WLD treasury in September 2025, holds 277 million WLD tokens as of March 20, making it the largest publicly traded holder.
