Eightco Holdings Inc., ORBS

The company holds $90M in OpenAI-linked special purpose vehicles, giving it indirect exposure to the AI giant without a direct equity stake. That represents roughly 27% of its total treasury.

Its Worldcoin position stands at 283.45M WLD tokens, valued at around $0.25 each. That puts the WLD holding at approximately $71M — about 21% of the total treasury, and 8.31% of Worldcoin’s entire circulating supply.

Eightco also holds 11,068 ETH and roughly $133M in cash and stablecoins, making its liquid position the largest single component of the portfolio.

Beast Industries and OpenAI Developments Drive Attention

The $18M stake in Beast Industries — the media company tied to MrBeast — has also drawn attention after management guided for $1.6B in 2026 revenue at an advertiser presentation on May 12. That’s up from $899M in 2025.

OpenAI remains a key focus. The company launched its “Deployment Company” AI joint venture on May 11, and The Wall Street Journal reported on May 20 that OpenAI may be preparing for a potential IPO.

Eightco also highlighted the launch of ChatGPT Personal Finance in the U.S. for Pro users as a recent milestone at one of its key holdings.

A smaller stake in Mythical Games is also listed in the treasury at around $1M.

Why Eightco Is Leaning Into Worldcoin

Eightco’s push into Worldcoin is tied to a specific thesis: rising non-human activity online is creating demand for proof-of-human verification technology.

The company cited Fundstrat data showing that non-human activity now accounts for 75% of Polymarket volume, 53% of web traffic, and 47% of global email activity.

Worldcoin’s Proof of Human network is positioned as a solution to that problem, and Eightco holds the largest publicly disclosed institutional position in WLD.

The stock was trading with a technical sentiment signal of “Sell” as of the announcement, and TipRanks’ AI analyst rated it Neutral — pointing to large ongoing losses and cash burn as key constraints.

Market cap sits at $349.2M with average daily trading volume of over 25.6M shares.
