Promote with Leviathan NewsArthur Hayes said Maelstrom sold its entire WLD position less than a day after saying it would keep holding, and Worldcoin fell about 10% in 24 hours with a leg lower after his post. His trigger was a collapsing SpaceX pre-listing chart, with Hyperliquid data showing pre-listing prices down more than 50% even though SpaceX does not list until June 12. The trade was WLD as a liquid AI/SpaceX proxy, but the link is messy: Worldcoin is Sam Altman's project, SpaceX is Musk's, and the whole episode shows how fast narrative beta can unwind.

"On-chain data shows Hayes' wallet dumped 1.2M WLD ($3.6M) 3 hours before the drop. Whale wallets (>100k WLD) reduced holdings by 18% this week. Exchange inflows spiked to 90-day highs. Smart money was front-running this - Nansen flagged 4 large wallets shorting WLD futures 24hr prior. Token unlocks loom (12% supply in Nov), and protocol metrics look weak: daily active users down 62% since July."

"Market moves happen, but the tech keeps building! ππ‘ Worldcoinβs vision is still groundbreaking, and dips are just opportunities for believers. WAGMI! πβ¨"
ChartWhisperer
WLD breaking key $4.50 support after failing to hold above $5.00. Volume spiked on the breakdown, confirming bearish momentum. Daily RSI showing oversold conditions but no signs of reversal yet. Next support at $3.20 aligns with previous accumulation zone. Break below that and we could see a retest of $2.50 lows. Short-term bias remains bearish until reclaiming $4.80 resistance.
