Worldcoin to Cut Daily WLD Unlocks 43% on July 24

Worldcoin will reduce daily WLD token unlocks by 43% on July 24, lowering total daily emissions from roughly 5.1 million WLD to about 2.9 million. Community token releases will fall 50%, from 3.2 million per day to 1.6 million.

Investor and team unlocks managed by Tools for Humanity will decline about 32%, from 1.9 million WLD per day to 1.3 million. The reductions apply to community, team and investor allocations and follow the project’s existing release schedule.

The project said the change is the result of extended lock-up schedules adopted in July 2024 for many team and investor tokens. Those tokens remained on a daily unlock cadence, and the staggered schedules cause the automatic decrease on July 24, 2026. The project also stated there are no large one-time “unlock cliffs” and that a live token release schedule is available on Dune.

As of April 10, about 4.9 billion WLD had been unlocked, equal to 49% of the 10 billion total supply, with 3.3 billion tokens actively circulating.

The World Foundation completed an over-the-counter sale of WLD for $65 million at roughly $0.27 per token in recent weeks. WLD has fallen more than 45% year-to-date in 2026 and remains about 97% below its March 2024 peak near $11. At the time of the announcement the token traded near $0.28.

The schedule change takes effect automatically under the existing lock-up timelines. The project continues to publish detailed token release data for public review.
