World Network, the blockchain ecosystem supporting biometric identification project Worldcoin, is reported in discussions with global payments leader Visa to integrate on-chain card features with a self-custody crypto wallet.

The collaboration could mark a significant step in bridging traditional payment infrastructure with emerging blockchain technologies.

Worldcoin Struggles After Hitting All-Time Low Despite Modest Rebound

According to CoinDesk, Tools for Humanity — the organization behind World Network and co-founded by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman — has reached out to several card issuers, including Rain. Rain is a Visa-backed crypto card startup supported by Coinbase and Circle, with a presence on blockchains such as Optimism and Avalanche.

The potential partnership comes at a pivotal moment for Worldcoin’s native token, WLD, which recently hit a new all-time low of $0.7 on March 11.

Despite a modest rebound to $0.81, the token remains under intense bearish pressure. WLD has lost over 90% of its value, making it one of the worst-performing assets among the top 100 cryptocurrencies in 2025.

97% of WLD Holders Face Losses as Bearish Pressure Continues

Data from blockchain analytics firm IntoTheBlock shows that 97% of WLD holders are currently facing losses. The number of wallets holding WLD for over a year is currently 31%, meaning that at the peak price of the token, one-third of holders still believed in holding it. This also implies limited immediate selling pressure, which could provide room for a short-term price recovery — if momentum is maintained.

Still, analysts warn that unless WLD can soon reclaim the $1 mark, its fragile recovery may falter. A failure to gain traction could see the token return to or fall below recent lows. Some users still show pessimism about the “shady” development of World Network.

World Network has been expanding its services beyond digital identity. Recent updates include the rollout of World Chat, a feature enabling users to communicate and transfer crypto assets within the ecosystem — further signaling the project’s intent to build an all-encompassing blockchain platform.

Meanwhile, payment giants like Visa and Mastercard continue to deepen their involvement in the crypto space. Both firms are exploring ways to integrate digital asset functionalities into their global networks, signaling a growing convergence between traditional finance and decentralized technologies.
