World Chain, an Ethereum Layer 2 on the OP Stack, saw its bridge total value locked (TVL) rise 33% to $602 million in a week, driven by a 50% rally in its WLD token. Institutional interest, highlighted by Eightco Holdings acquiring 8.4% of circulating WLD tokens, and new DeFi integrations like the Oku Trade partnership, are fueling growth. World Chain's unique identity verification system using iris-scanning sets it apart in the competitive Layer 2 space. Investors should watch TVL, token price, and the growth of verified World ID users to gauge the platform's long-term potential.
