On-chain analyst Ember said the Worldcoin Foundation sold 217 million WLD to Pantera Capital and other institutions about eight hours earlier, in a deal valued at roughly $52.5 million. The sale price was not disclosed in the announcement itself, but token transfers appeared on-chain after the notice, with the team wallet distributing 217.4 million WLD to multiple addresses. Based on the token amount and the disclosed fundraising total, the implied sale price was about $0.24 per WLD, which represented a 36% discount to the token’s current market price cited in the report. The tokens are subject to a one-year lock-up, which may help explain at least part of the discount. The report was published by PANews and framed as market information rather than investment advice.

Transfers appeared on-chain after the announcement

The report said the sale price was not disclosed in the announcement. After it was released, however, token movements showed up on-chain, with the team wallet distributing 217.4 million WLD to multiple addresses.

Implied price was about $0.24 per token

Using the token amount and the fundraising total, the implied sale price comes to about $0.24 per WLD. That is 36% below the token’s current price cited in the report.

The WLD sold in the transaction will be locked up for one year, which the report said may be one reason for the discount.
