According to a recent announcement on the Worldcoin blog, World Assets Ltd., a subsidiary of the Worldcoin Foundation, plans to sell WLD tokens from the World Assets treasury to meet and support the growing demand for Orb-verified World IDs. Worldcoin network expansion.
The majority of the 193 million WLD tokens currently in circulation have been claimed through user subsidies by more than 5 million individuals with Orb Verification World IDs in over 160 countries. To facilitate the WLD token sale, World Assets will conduct a private placement with selected institutional trading firms operating outside the United States.
These private placements will last up to six months and include measures to prevent WLD tokens sold outside the United States from flowing back into the country. For example, affiliated trading companies are restricted from reselling WLD tokens to individuals or from digital asset trading platforms accessible to U.S. persons. Additionally, depending on legal and commercial considerations, a 40-day lock-up period may be implemented to restrict resale of WLD tokens by trading companies.
World Assets aims to promote competition by negotiating with multiple trading firms to secure private placements at prices close to prevailing market rates for WLD tokens, taking into account the aforementioned restrictions.
