Worldcoin will use WLD to pay rewards to Orb operators and renew market maker loan agreements
Worldcoin stated in its official blog that during the transition phase after the launch of Worldcoin, Orb operator rewards were paid in the form of USDC. This transition phase is now coming to an end, and operators will then receive rewards in the form of WLD.
In addition, at the time of WLD's official launch, World Assets Ltd. (a subsidiary of the Worldcoin Foundation) entered into loan agreements with five market makers operating outside the United States. The purpose of the participation of these entities is to ensure that WLD traded on centralized trading platforms outside the United States has sufficient liquidity and enhance the price stability of WLD. The five entities received a total of 100 million WLD loans, which were originally due on October 24, 2023. However, World Assets Ltd. decided to extend the initial loan agreement to December 15, 2023, reducing the total loan amount by 75 million WLD, while keeping all other terms of the agreement unchanged. Therefore, on October 24, 2023, the market makers will return 25 million WLD of the current outstanding loans.
The price of some FTX debts exceeds 50%, and the asset recovery rate may increase
According to The Block, Thomas Braziel, a partner at 117 Partners who specializes in FTX claims, said that the valuation of some FTX claims over the counter transactions exceeded 50%, indicating that the market currently expects about half of the user assets to be recovered. Braziel said that a claim worth more than $20 million was sold at about 52% at an auction last Friday, but only the "largest and cleanest claims" could be sold at this price.
Enthusiasm around the value of FTX’s claims has grown since Anthropic, an artificial intelligence company, recently announced several large investments. FTX had bought a large stake in Anthropic. Creditors hope that the sale of Anthropic shares will help return funds to creditors, potentially leading to full recovery.
In a January X poll, most respondents said they expected to recover only 25% of their funds. Since then, FTX debtors, led by current FTX CEO John Ray III, have attempted to recoup their funds, starting to sell tokens and liquidate other assets.
