Is Worldcoin About to Take Over the World? USDC Integration Makes Waves!

by

Well, well, well. Guess who’s back at it again? Sam Altman’s Worldcoin is in the spotlight with its latest *super exciting* (and totally not subtle) move: integrating Circle’s USDC to make global transfers… well, less awful? In a groundbreaking move, the World team announced this Friday that the USDC and Cross Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) V2 will be available soon. Yes, *soon*, so no need to break out the confetti just yet.

And if you’re still pretending to care, you’ll be thrilled to know that this is following the *super important* launch of World ID in six US cities. Wow, ground-breaking. Now, all eyes are on WLD, the blockchain’s native crypto—because if there’s one thing we love, it’s another crypto project promising us riches. Let’s see if their price can live up to the hype. Spoiler alert: It just might.

So, What’s Actually Happening Here?

Let me break it down for you. On May 2, Worldcoin announced that Circle’s USDC and the mighty CCTP V2 will soon be on the World Chain. If you’ve been living under a rock, you might not know that USDC was already available on the network via bridges. But hold onto your seats—there’s an upgrade in the works! Soon, you’ll be able to use USDC *directly*, no middleman required. What a time to be alive.

Worldcoin’s user base stretches from Buenos Aires to Busan, making remittances with minimal (a.k.a. *not *blood-sucking) fees, thanks to those “fancy” Mini Apps. And now, with the integration of Circle’s stablecoin, all the bridged USDC will be converted into native USDC. That’s right, folks—no more “pretend” money. We’re talking coins backed by actual, real-world liquid assets! Can’t get more legit than that. I guess it’s time to finally trust crypto?

Oh, and did I mention that with the new CCTP V2 upgrade, cross-chain transfers will be *easier* and *cheaper*? Because that’s totally what the world needed—a smoother, cheaper crypto experience. Hold on, I think I hear unicorns galloping through the streets.

Meanwhile, back in the land of the brave, Worldcoin has also launched its World ID in the U.S., which is a total game-changer. Traders and investors are practically camping out with their binoculars, eyeing WLD with high hopes of a *huge* price rally. It’s like waiting for a unicorn to show up at a party—except this time, it might actually happen.

At the time of writing, WLD saw a glorious 0.25% price increase, making it worth $1.04. Hey, don’t laugh—it’s a start. Over the last week, WLD’s price shot up 12%. Can we call this a “bull run”? Maybe. Are people holding on to their WLD with hope and dreams of riches? Definitely.

And just to make things even juicier, CoinGape’s WLD price prediction suggests that the bulls are ruling the roost, at least according to their 3-month bias indicator. So, yeah, it might just be the start of something big. Or not. Who knows? Crypto, right?
