World Token Surges 35% in Month, Leaves BTC Behind Amid AI Demand
The World token has staged an impressive rebound in September, climbing to its highest levels since late June. The cryptocurrency surged 35% over the last month, with most of that advance packed into the final week.
World traded as high as $0.58 this weekend, a price point not seen since June 26th. It currently has a market value of nearly $2 billion and overshadowed large-cap heavyweights like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Dogecoin (DOGE) in weekly and monthly returns.
The World ecosystem is an identity verification project that captures people's irises to confirm their humanness and build a digital ID. Historically, eligible users could receive WLD tokens through the project's airdrop program; new airdrop cycles stopped being created or renewed in June 2026.
