        <p>Worldcoin (WLD) surged 5.4% on June 10, 2025, reaching $1.18 after news broke that OpenAI, co-founded by WLD creator Sam Altman, had signed a major cloud infrastructure deal with Google.</p>
        <p>This agreement allows OpenAI to access Google Cloud’s powerful infrastructure to train and deploy AI models like ChatGPT, signaling a strategic diversification away from its previous reliance on Microsoft Azure.</p>
        <p>The market reacted quickly. According to CoinMarketCap, WLD rose from $1.11 to $1.18 within hours, while 24-hour trading volume spiked 38% to $208.6 million.</p>
        <p>This rally reflects the long-standing correlation between OpenAI’s growth and <a href="https://www.ethnews.com/worldcoin-gains-28-as-id-verification-network-expands-globally-to-40-countries/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Worldcoin’s performance</a>, as investors increasingly see WLD as a proxy for advances in the AI space.</p>
        <p>Given WLD’s focus on decentralized biometric identity systems, traders anticipate that faster AI development will enhance demand for secure identity verification platforms.</p>
        <p>OpenAI’s move to Google Cloud is seen as a pivotal shift. It not only gives OpenAI access to more compute power amid surging AI demand but also boosts Google Cloud’s position in the AI race—already a significant revenue driver for Alphabet.</p>
        <p>Analysts believe this broader AI momentum will continue to fuel optimism around WLD and similar tokens in the AI-crypto sector.</p>
        <p>From a technical standpoint, WLD broke out of a descending channel on the four-hour chart, pushing above the 50-period moving average and clearing resistance at $1.15.</p>
        <p>The Relative Strength Index (RSI) climbed to 62, signaling rising bullish momentum without being overbought. Analysts now point to $1.25 as the next resistance level, with key support between $1.05 and $1.08.</p>
        <p>Prominent crypto analyst Jonathan Carter <a href="https://x.com/JohncyCrypto/status/1932442547021877250" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">highlighted</a> the breakout on X, noting that the price respected an ascending trendline support—further confirming bullish sentiment. Carter projected upside targets at $1.25, $1.34, $1.45, and potentially $1.62, suggesting gains of up to 40% if momentum sustains.</p>

        <p>With Worldcoin’s market cap rising to $1.82 billion, up from $1.75 billion the day before, traders and investors alike are keeping a close eye on both OpenAI’s next moves and WLD’s potential as AI-powered crypto infrastructure becomes a more prominent theme in 2025.</p>
