Worldcoin (WLD), the privacy-focused cryptocurrency, has continued its long-term downtrend, falling below key support levels on its daily chart. Despite a recent 10% surge, the broader market sentiment remains bearish, and WLD faces significant resistance to any potential recovery.
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index currently indicates a bearish sentiment, reflecting the overall market’s negative outlook. WLD is trading at around $1.63 at the time of writing, down from its 11-month high.
The downward pressure on WLD is evident in its position below all major moving averages (EMAs). The 20-day EMA at $1.67, the 50-day EMA at $2.08, and the 200-day EMA at $3.42 serve as significant resistance points for any potential recovery.
The current price action suggests that WLD is struggling to break above the 20-day EMA, which is crucial for a sustained recovery. The downward-sloping EMAs indicate that sellers are still in control, and any bounce from current levels could face strong resistance.
To gain control, WLD must close above the 20-day EMA and maintain this level. While the recent increase in volume and Open Interest suggests potential for a bounce, the broader market sentiment still favors the bears.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is hovering below the 50-mark, indicating a slight bearish edge. Buyers should look for a potential close above equilibrium to gauge the chances of an immediate recovery.
Key levels to watch include the immediate resistance at the 20-day EMA ($1.67). If WLD can break and hold above this level, the next target would be the 50-day EMA at $2.08, followed by a potential test of the 200 EMA level. On the downside, the support at $1.41 is crucial. A break below this level could lead to a steeper correction, with the next support around $0.95.
It’s worth noting that the volume increased significantly by 60.25% to $528.67 million, and Open Interest also rose by 12.52% to $144.08 million. This suggests growing interest in WLD, but whether this is driven by buyers stepping in or more sellers looking to short the asset remains uncertain.
The long/short ratio for the last 24 hours is almost balanced at 1.0068, indicating a neutral sentiment among traders. However, the WLD/USDT long/short ratio on Binance is highly bullish at 2.7341, showing that many traders hope for a potential recovery.
Buyers should also monitor external factors, such as macroeconomic trends and Bitcoin’s sentiment, as these will likely influence WLD’s price action in the near term.
