ICP vs WLD
Internet Computer and Worldcoin scored on the same 25 variables, ranked against the same 251 tokens, with every gap between them shown.
Scoring pass 18 Sept 2026. Market snapshot 7 Oct 2026.
What separates them
ICP scores 102 of 250 and ranks 129th of 251. WLD scores 89 and ranks 196th. ICP leads by 13 points, which is a real gap, though small enough that one variable moving would close much of it. ICP takes 12 of the 25 variables, WLD takes 10, and 3 are level.
The framework rates ICP WATCH and WLD PASS. Two tokens close enough to compare do not have to land in the same band, and where they do not, the divergence table below is where the split comes from.
3 variables separate them by 3 points or more. ICP is clear on Circulating / FDV Ratio (8 against 1), Regulatory Safety (6 against 2) and Real Staking Yield (5 against 2).
Both score 3 or below on Protocol Revenue, Revenue Trend, P/S Multiple, Supply Inflation, Vesting Schedule, Buyback and Burn and 2 more. A weakness both sides share is not a reason to prefer either. It is a reason to check whether the category itself carries the problem.
WLD still has 62% of its eventual supply to enter circulation against 0% for ICP. On the same market capitalisation, a buyer of WLD is taking the 2.63x dilution path and a buyer of ICP the 1x one.
WLD is valued at $1.96B against $1.75B for ICP, a 1.1x difference. The smaller of the two scores higher on fundamentals, which is the disagreement worth understanding before either position is taken.
All 25 variables, head to head
Both tokens were scored by the same framework in the same pass, so the numbers are directly comparable. What a comparison adds over two separate pages is the gap: a 6 against a 6 is a non-event, a 9 against a 3 is the reason to hold one and not the other.
