WLD plummeted over 20% at one point, with a market capitalization dropping to $2.247 billion

BlockBeats News, June 6th, according to HTX market data, WLD once fell by over 20%, currently trading at $0.4319, with a market cap of $2.247 billion.

Arthur Hayes stated today that he has liquidated all his holdings of Worldcoin (WLD), diverging from his public commitment to holding WLD less than a day ago. Hayes views WLD as a liquidity proxy asset for AI-themed trading. He believes that as SpaceX puts more emphasis on AI and connectivity businesses, a strong performance at its listing will drive the entire AI and tech sector, with WLD serving as a substitute for retail investors who find it challenging to directly participate in SpaceX equity trading.

However, SpaceX's stock has recently seen a significant drop in its pre-IPO price in the private market. Data indicates that the SpaceX pre-IPO price on Hyperliquid has fallen by over 50% in recent days, diminishing the appeal of AI concept trading and prompting Hayes to change his stance and exit WLD. Over the past month, WLD had defied the trend with an approximately 70% increase, but with the recent pullback, its one-month gain has narrowed to around 45%.
