bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Charles Hoskinson appeared on camera to discuss the trial of Lindsay Clancy rather than addressing Cardano (ADA). Hoskinson argued that Clancy, who admitted to strangling her three children in 2023, should be put to death. The jury deliberated for seven days before splitting 11 to 1, leading Judge William Sullivan to declare a mistrial on September 4.
Her lawyers had argued postpartum psychosis removed her criminal responsibility, but Hoskinson rejected this as an excuse. He questioned where personal accountability ends and noted that the father, Patrick Clancy, has asked the public to forgive his wife. Hoskinson rarely misses a week without defending Cardano, but this video contained no token or price call.
The story traveled widely because it lacked tradable data, reaching people who have never held the token. Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz has not yet decided if Clancy will be tried again. She is scheduled to return to court on September 29.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ADA, measured when this story was written up on 8 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data for ADA shows a price of $0.2205 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 48.4%. The 1-hour buy ratio sits at 50.1%, while the 4-hour ratio is lower at 47.0%, indicating that short-term buying pressure is slightly stronger than the recent 4-hour trend. Volume Delta for the last hour is positive at +$998, contrasting with a negative -$266,355 over the past 4 hours. This suggests that immediate buying interest is returning after a period of net selling. Over the last 24 hours, the Volume Delta is -$1,188,754, showing that sellers have dominated the day's flow. The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) closed at -$435,937, confirming that net selling pressure has outweighed buying pressure over the full day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 45.6% sits at the 5th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.2% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for ADA, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 49.3%, making the current 24-hour ratio of 48.4% slightly below the weekly norm. The latest day shows a buy ratio that is 0.9 points lower than the 7-day average. However, spot volume has increased to 1.24 times the weekly average, indicating higher activity despite the slight drop in buy ratio. Net buying occurred on only 3 of the past 7 days, with a total Volume Delta of -$2,130,848 for the period. This volume spike contrasts with the sustained net selling, marking this as an unusually active day for the coin compared to its recent history.
