Whalio data shows Worldcoin trading at $0.4064 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 53.0% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 58.4%, both exceeding the 24-hour average of 54.3%. This indicates that buying pressure is building in the short term relative to the longer daily window. Volume deltas confirm this shift, showing +$82,742 over the last hour and +$1,119,228 over the last four hours. These positive deltas mean that the total volume of buy orders has exceeded sell orders during these periods. The cumulative volume delta for the 24-hour close stands at +$7,715,000, with net buying occurring in 18 of the last 24 hours.
