Whales Bet Big on WLD, VIRTUAL, and ONDO Despite Market Downturn

Whales bought heavily during the recent market downturn, signaling renewed confidence in WLD, VIRTUAL, and ONDO. WLD ended 2024 with an 8% decline, frustrating many investors. This underperformance was even more noticeable as crypto AI agents gained traction late in the year, attracting users and capital. Despite this, whales bought heavily during the recent market downturn, indicating renewed confidence in WLD’s long-term potential.

Worldcoin ended 2024 with a disappointing 8% decline, frustrating many investors.

Since January 31, the number of whales holding between 10,000 and 100,000 WLD, as well as those holding between 100,000 and 1,000,000 WLD, has surged to new all-time highs. This aggressive accumulation suggests that large investors see value at current levels, despite WLD and the overall artificial intelligence market struggles. If whale buying continues, it could provide much-needed support for a potential recovery in the coming weeks.

VIRTUAL was one of the hardest-hit AI tokens in the market, plunging 71% between January 3 and February 3. This steep decline made it one of the biggest losers among top artificial intelligence cryptos, reflecting the broader sell-off in speculative sectors. Despite this, recent data suggests that whale activity could be signaling a potential shift in sentiment.

The number of whales holding between 10,000 and 100,000 VIRTUAL had stabilized after dropping from 841 on January 25 to 825 on January 27. However, following the latest market crash, accumulation has resumed, with whale addresses rising from 827 on February 1 to 841 now.
