As 2026 begins, the broader cryptocurrency market continues to show notable strength. Both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) are up over 7% on the week, and bullish momentum is gradually spilling over into major altcoins — including Worldcoin (WLD).

WLD has already surged more than 29% over the past week, but the more important development lies beneath the surface. Recent price action is beginning to reflect a meaningful structural shift, one that could signal the early stages of a sustained bullish continuation if key resistance is cleared.

Rounding Bottom in Play

On the daily timeframe, Worldcoin appears to be forming a rounding bottom pattern — a classic bullish reversal structure that typically emerges after a prolonged corrective phase. This pattern reflects a gradual transition from strong selling pressure to steady accumulation, as buyers slowly regain control.

The setup began after WLD faced firm rejection near the $0.6388–$0.6644 zone late last month. That rejection triggered a sharp decline, dragging price down toward the $0.47 area. Notably, sellers failed to push price significantly lower, and strong demand repeatedly emerged at that level. Over time, volatility compressed, downside momentum faded, and price began to curve higher — completing the rounded base structure.

Since then, WLD has rebounded sharply and reclaimed the 50-day moving average near $0.5750, an important technical development that suggests improving short-term momentum. Price is now pressing back into the same resistance zone that previously capped upside attempts, marking a critical inflection point for the trend.

What’s Next for WLD?

If WLD continues to hold above the 50-day moving average, that level could act as short-term support and provide a foundation for further upside attempts. A clean daily close above the $0.6388–$0.6644 resistance zone would confirm the rounding bottom breakout and validate the broader reversal structure.

A successful breakout followed by acceptance above this zone would likely attract momentum traders back into the market and open the door for a stronger expansion phase. Based on the depth of the rounding formation, the projected upside target points toward the $0.8588 region — implying a potential upside of roughly 34% from current levels, in line with the measured move typically associated with this pattern.

That said, patience remains important. Before any confirmed breakout, WLD could still see short-term pullbacks, including a dip toward the rising base of the rounding structure, which has been acting as dynamic support during the recovery. Such pullbacks would not invalidate the bullish setup as long as price continues to maintain higher lows.

Until a decisive breakout and follow-through occur, traders may want to remain cautious and avoid chasing price. The $0.6388–$0.6644 zone remains the key decision area that will determine whether Worldcoin transitions into a sustained bullish phase or continues consolidating into the new year.

Although the overall crypto market remains under pressure, the declines are relatively controlled.

Citigroup Slashes Bitcoin and Ethereum 12-Month Price Targets, Citing Stalled U.S. Crypto Legislation Weighing on Upside Catalysts

Citigroup has lowered its 12-month price targets for Bitcoin and Ethereum, signaling a shift toward caution on the cryptocurrency market's medium-term outlook, primarily due to slow progress in U.S. crypto asset legislation. Bitcoin's target was reduced from $143,000 to $112,000, while Ethereum's fell to $3,175. Despite upside potential remaining in the future, the lack of new policy catalysts suggests prices may oscillate within a range in the near term.
