- Worldcoin integrates USDC, enabling seamless dollar-based transactions globally.
- WLD token gains modestly post-announcement, but indicators suggest consolidation.
- Analysts project WLD may fall 21% by year-end, despite short-term trading potential.
The Worldcoin project has added native support for the USDC stablecoin to its blockchain ecosystem, World Chain, in a major step to expand its functionality and enhance its appeal for decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. The move brings one of the world’s most trusted and regulated dollar-backed stablecoins to the iris-scanning digital identity network.
With USDC now live on World Chain, developers and users can access a trusted, dollar-backed stablecoin across more than 160 countries. This update significantly strengthens Worldcoin’s infrastructure by enabling secure, fast, and efficient crosschain financial operations.
USDC Integration Enhances Financial Access on World Chain
By integrating USDC, Worldcoin users now benefit from the most widely accepted regulated stablecoin globally. The upgrade occurs automatically, requiring no action from existing users.
This ensures a smooth transition while enabling seamless participation in dollar-based transactions across borders. Additionally, developers gain the ability to build applications with reliable and stable liquidity from day one.
The inclusion of USDC also brings with it institutional-grade on- and off-ramps via Circle Mint, making it easier for businesses to connect to the ecosystem. Major platforms including World App, Morpho Labs, BitGo, and Uniswap now offer direct access to native USDC on World Chain, further simplifying asset movement through Circle’s Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP).

WLD Token Sees Modest Rally, But Technicals Urge Caution
Following the announcement, Worldcoin’s native token (WLD) experienced a modest price uptick. As of June 11, 2025, WLD is trading at $1.20, with a 24-hour gain of 4.47%. Its weekly performance also shows a 3.77% rise, supported by a market cap nearing $1.93 billion.
Despite this, technical signals suggest cautious optimism. The MACD indicates a slight bullish crossover, while the RSI sits at a neutral 51.90, signaling potential consolidation.
Long liquidations still outweigh shorts, hinting at residual market volatility. Historical liquidation data shows heavy selling pressure since the token fell from $4.00 in December to below $1.20 in June. However, current positions are nearly balanced, suggesting investors are uncertain about short-term direction.

Outlook for 2025 and Beyond
Despite the recent recovery, projections indicate further declines. Coincodex analysts forecast WLD to trade between $0.92 and $0.95 by December 2025. This implies a potential 21% drop from current levels. However, short-term traders could still benefit from price swings in the consolidation phase.
