On February 6, Arthur Hayes, the prominent crypto figure and co-founder of BitMEX, announced via social media that he has completely sold off his holdings of WLD tokens. WLD is the native token of Worldcoin, a project co-founded by Sam Altman that uses iris scans for identification and has stirred controversy over its biometric data collection practices.
Hayes had previously spoken publicly about his bullish view on Worldcoin and its token. The exact size of his position, the timing of the sale, and the reasons behind the move were not disclosed. Following the announcement, some community members expressed surprise, though as of now, WLD's market price has not shown any sharp volatility on the news.
