Worldcoin is a new, collectively owned global currency with the aim of fair distribution to the biggest number of people possible. The crypto startup which was co-founded by former Y Combinator president Sam Altman has recently raised $100 million via a funding round.

Valuation at $3 billion

Worldcoin raised around $100 million in new funding round via prominent investors like Andreessen Horowitz, Khosla Ventures with the sale of Worldcoin tokens. Two people with knowledge of the matter talked to The Information on the matter and said that the valuation of the entire supply of the project’s tokens was somewhere around the $3 billion mark. 

Another important fact to note here is that this is the second investment round that Worldcoin has held. Previously, the firm had raised $25 million at a $1 billion valuation in the month of October. The previous round was led by firms like a16z, Coinbase Ventures, Digital Currency Group, and angel investors including the founder of FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, and more. 

It is also important to note that Andreessen Horowitz or a16z has been investing in a number of blockchain projects this year, recently investing in Lido Finance. 

What is Worldcoin?

Worldcoin has introduced a new concept of ‘humanness’ via a device they call the Orb. This device will be responsible for confirming that a person is human and capturing the image of a person’s eyes. Next, this image is converted into a numeric code in order to confirm if the person has received their free share of Wondercoin.

“Eventually, we plan to produce more than fifty thousand devices per year. It is still early, but the results of these field tests make us optimistic that Worldcoin will soon connect the first billion users in one commonly owned crypto network,” explains the official website.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
