Worldcoin’s price hovered near $0.38 in early US trading hours on Thursday, February 12, 2026, up about 5% in the past 24 hours as cryptocurrencies posted modest gains.

The WLD token, native to the World project that’s building a privacy-preserving identity network, however, remains in a downtrend and faces strong resistance around the $0.40 mark.

Can bulls navigate past this critical hurdle and test key levels reached before the downward flip accelerated in September 2025?

As the Bitcoin price struggled to hold above $68,000 on Thursday, Worldcoin rose alongside Uniswap, VeChain, and Hyperliquid.

Bittensor, Internet Computer, Render, and ArtificialSuperintelligence Alliance tokens also posted intraday gains, with the AI tokens sector recording a jump in both trading volume and market cap.

This uptick saw the WLD token trade to intraday highs just under $0.40, tapping into an 8% increase in daily trading volume to test the immediate supply zone.

Gains follow a volatile week where prices fluctuated heavily as BTC crashed to near $60k before rebounding to the $70k mark.

In this period, Worldcoin prices plunged to $0.32 on Feb. 5 and swiftly rebounded to $.0.42 on Feb. 7.

However, with bears tanking the benchmark digital asset again, a revisit of lows near $65k for BTC saw WLD drop to $.036.

Bulls have, over the past week, struggled to breach the $0.40 level.

While short-term bullish sentiment has the token poised for another retest, a downbeat market outlook suggests sellers may extend dominance.

This is because risk appetite has significantly weakened, with concerns around the US economy and falling expectations for a Fed rate cut being key factors.

Derivatives market data shows open interest in Worldcoin has dipped sharply to under $120 million, while the weighted funding rate is at -0.0006%.

Such an OI-weighted funding rate, on the 4-hour period, highlights bearish sentiment in the token’s perpetual futures market.

Basically, it means short positions are paying longs, as more traders are betting on price declines.

In the past 24 hours, Worldcoin has registered about $442k in total liquidations.

On the weekly chart, the price is well below this mark, where selling pressure dissipated as WLD bounced off a key downtrend line in April 2025.

Bulls need to reclaim this as support before eyeing further gains.

The weekly Relative Strength Index (RSI) is nearly crossing into oversold conditions, but at 33, it signals room for further downside movement.

Should resistance hold and bears strengthen, downside risks point to a potential pullback to support at $0.31.

From here, the 2023 lows of $0.15 could offer a tantalising target for bears.

The immediate resistance for WLD lies at $0.40, while the next barriers could be around the $0.58-$0.64 zone.
