World, Solana’s mysterious project that garnered millions of views on
The platform is online at world.xyz and in the Phantom wallet on iOS, Android and desktop, with Chainlink as its main oracle infrastructure for its data.
Users can trade event contracts tied to cryptocurrency prices and the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with additional markets on sports, geopolitics and macroeconomics planned for the near future, according to an announcement shared with CoinDesk.
World’s world_xyz account has attracted attention through social media posts that offer scant product details, fueling speculation that the project could be a meme coin, trading app, or broader Solana infrastructure. Copycat WORLD-themed tokens have appeared on token launch platforms, although those tokens are not official world assets.
The platform’s identity remained hidden until late June, when a legal disclosure on Phantom’s site appeared on X.
Instead, World is a non-custodial prediction market, where users can trade directly from their Solana wallets and funds move only when they enter a market. Positions, settlements and redemptions are done on-chain.
