TechFlow News, June 17: According to independent analyst Markus Thielen, Sam Altman’s dual role as co-founder of both OpenAI and Worldcoin has led some capital in the secondary market to view WLD as a highly liquid alternative for betting on OpenAI’s future IPO. Following SpaceX’s recent listing—whose stock price has remained robust—the market’s attention toward IPOs of AI “star” assets has intensified. Some traders have already begun treating WLD as a tradable asset that front-runs this sentiment.
On the near-term catalyst front, Eightco Holdings disclosed holding approximately 283 million WLD tokens, representing 8.4% of the circulating supply. Should market expectations around OpenAI’s potential IPO as early as September this year continue to strengthen, WLD’s trading thesis—as a proxy asset—may see further development.
