Worldcoin rallies 13% as AI sector gains momentum
Worldcoin (WLD)

bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Worldcoin [WLD] surged more than 13% in the past 24 hours, doubling its weekly profits to over 26%. This altcoin has shown bullish trends over the last 30 days with gains exceeding 50%. The rally occurred despite a massive token unlock, driven by renewed interest in AI coins like Near Protocol [NEAR], Bittensor [TAO], Injective [INJ], and Internet Computer [ICP].
Spot Taker CVD readings flipped green in the last two days of August, signaling buyer dominance. Long/Short Ratios on Binance and OKX exceeded 1.70, with Top Trader ratios at 1.93 and 2.11. This buying activity forced short liquidations totaling over $1.20 million in 12 hours, while only $490K in long orders were liquidated.
Technically, WLD broke above the $0.41-$0.45 zone, which served as the neckline for an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern. The bullish targets are set at $0.55 and a true close at $0.67, provided bulls hold above the $0.45 supply zone. However, an RSI divergence at 67 suggests selling pressure is not yet exhausted. Selling pressure persists after the 69 million WLD token unlock on September 7, valued at $28 million, with 87 million tokens scheduled for September.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for WLD, measured when this story was written up on 8 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio data shows WLD trading at $0.4778 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 52.2%, indicating a slight majority of buyers over the full day. However, shorter timeframes show fading momentum, with the 1-hour buy ratio at 45.4% and the 4-hour ratio at 49.6%. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at $2,973,709, but the 1-hour delta is negative at -$216,530, suggesting recent selling pressure. The CVD closed at +$2,108,176, confirming net buying over the day, yet the 4-hour delta of -$89,582 hints at immediate profit-taking. Spot volume reached $67,536,973 with 468,599 trades, showing high activity despite the mixed short-term signals.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.7% sits at the 74th percentile of the last 324 days, against a median of 49.3% - stronger buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for WLD, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 49.7%, making the current 24-hour ratio of 52.2% an unusual shift toward buyers. Volume was 3.74 times the weekly average, highlighting this as an exceptionally active period for WLD. The price increased by 31.0% over eight days, driven by a total volume delta of +$2,686,793. While the 24-hour delta is positive, the recent 1-hour negative delta contrasts with the strong weekly trend. This day represents a continuation of the weekly bullish structure, though short-term buying has cooled slightly from the daily average.
