Exciting news from World Mobile: over two million individuals are now actively using its blockchain-powered network on a daily basis. In addition to this significant milestone, World Mobile Token ($WMTX) is scheduled to make its debut on the Kraken exchange in the United States on September 4, marking its first listing in the country.
This growth is not limited to a single region. World Mobile reports that adoption is increasing in the United States, Asia, and Africa, supported by a network of more than 60,000 AirNode devices that directly connect communities to the World Mobile Chain. Operating as an EVM-compatible Layer 3 settling on Base, the chain utilizes $WMTX as the gas token, ensuring that everyday transactions on the network contribute directly to on-chain activities.
CEO Micky Watkins expressed pride in surpassing the two million daily active users milestone on-chain, stating, “This achievement demonstrates the strength of our decentralized approach. It proves that our vision for an open, fair, and inclusive telecoms network is not just a concept, but a reality.”
The listing of $WMTX on Kraken is expected to simplify the buying and selling process for a wider audience, attracting fresh liquidity and new users to the ecosystem. Beyond transaction payments, the token is used for staking, and World Mobile operates a buyback program that reinvests subscriber revenue into market purchases of $WMTX, ensuring tight integration of the token with the network’s economy.
Watkins further remarked, “Kraken’s decision to list $WMTX adds to the growing momentum behind World Mobile Chain after its mainnet launch, opening the door to additional partnerships and integrations that will enhance its utility. This move validates our efforts and will bring in more liquidity and users to drive the next phase of World Mobile’s expansion.”
Key Achievements
World Mobile has already established partnerships with prominent entities such as PwC and DITO, and has integrated with Token Terminal for on-chain analytics used by major platforms like Bloomberg and Binance. The team has also introduced a public dashboard displaying $WMTX metrics and other network data, providing both retail and institutional observers with greater insight into chain activity.
This progress coincides with growing interest in DePIN. The World Economic Forum projects that DePIN could become a market worth approximately $3.5 trillion within three years, and World Mobile’s community-owned node model, combined with blockchain incentives and tangible hardware, positions it as an early and prominent example of this trend.
The company is actively bringing on developers and partners to its developer mainnet and gearing up for a fully permissionless launch. With usage steadily increasing, World Mobile stands as an important case study in determining whether tokenized networks can effectively scale physical telecom infrastructure while empowering the communities they serve with greater control and revenue.
