The company that wants to scan your eyeballs for cash and other AI-related projects are growing at a rapid pace.
Worldcoin, the cryptocurrency initiative led by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, has soared to unprecedented heights, joining a dozen other artificial intelligence-related tokens and stocks.
According to Coingecko, Worldcoin’s WLD digital currency has seen a massive 21% price increase over the past 24 hours, surging from $7.08 per coin to an all-time high of $8.96 before settling at $8.20 at the time of writing.
This leap marks a 300% appreciation in February alone, when WLD was valued at just $2.20.
Worldcoin aims to become the main decentralized digital identification platform, giving everyone on the planet proof of identity, distinguishing real people from robots or AI algorithms. To achieve this goal, the startup behind the protocol, Tools for Humanity, has developed World ID, a privacy-centric solution that allows users to confirm their identity.
This verification process relies on the Orb, an iris scanning device that creates a unique iris code for each user. This code, similar to a fingerprint, is stored on a decentralized blockchain, ostensibly to protect it from fraud.

As dystopian as it sounds, people are coming together to put their eyes on the orbs and have their irises recorded. The project’s first wallet, World App, hit 1 million users this Sunday.
The idea is already gaining traction, especially among young people and citizens in developing countries, where the rewards they receive for registering their identities are high enough to generate sufficient value and significant secondary income.
The excitement isn’t limited to Worldcoin. The market for popular AI tokens is also active, with notable projects like The Graph, Ocean, and Render Protocol up more than 50% in the past seven days. Fetch AI is up 75%, the forgotten Golem is up 68%, and SingularityNET is up 120%. Golem is up 68%, SingularityNET is up 120%. SingularityNET is up 120%.
The AI craze has also extended to the stock market, which has also been boosted by Nvidia’s announcement of record profits yesterday. Nvidia’s stock (Nvidia) has achieved a nearly 30% gain in February, reaching an ATH of $785.
Other tech giants also saw big gains, including AMD (AMD) and Microsoft (MSFT) , which surged 11% today, while Microsoft's stock (ticker: MSFT) rose 3%. Meta was not far behind, rising nearly 4% today, pushing its gains this month to 25%. All of these stocks are trading near all-time highs.
