Sam Altman is scheduled to sit down with CNBC’s Julia Boorstin on July 9 at 10 a.m. ET, as OpenAI has already submitted a confidential S-1 registration statement to the SEC, the document companies file when seriously considering going public. For crypto traders, Altman is also the co-founder of Worldcoin, the project behind the WLD token. When OpenAI’s S-1 news broke, WLD jumped more than 7%, reaching just over $0.50 and adding roughly $101 million to its market capitalization in a single session on June 9. Separately, starting July 24, the daily token unlock rate for WLD will decrease by 43%, dropping from 5.1 million tokens per day to 2.9 million. In early June, Altman met with lawmakers and expressed support for a Trump administration executive order on AI safety.
