Arbitrum jumps 12.4% on 6.4 times its usual turnover

Arbitrum (ARB) Whalio analysis Editor: Eugene Serbin

Arbitrum closed at $0.1241 on Binance spot on 2 September 2026, up 12.41% for the day. The largest single-day gain in the 279 days Whalio has measured remains 29.77% on 31 August 2026.

Turnover reached $38.7M, the 5th-largest daily figure on record; the heaviest day measured was $55M on 1 September 2026. That is 6.4 times the median day of $6M.

Binance registered 259,534 trades over the day, against a median of 27,971. The average trade was $149, against $215 on a median day.

The buy ratio - the share of turnover that hit the ask rather than the bid - came in at 49.79%, the 54th percentile of this coin's own history. Net taker selling totalled $130,985, or 0.3% of the day's turnover.

What the tape does not show is one-sided pressure. A move of this size on 9.3 times the usual number of trades, at a smaller average ticket, with net flow only 0.3% of turnover, is consistent with a thin resting book being repriced by many small orders rather than with size being lifted. That is a reading of the data, not a claim about who was trading.

These figures cover Binance spot only. Order flow records which side of the book crossed the spread, not who sent the order or why, and a coin can trade very differently on another venue or in futures.

The figures above are the day itself. Measured against this coin's own record they say something more specific than a price move: turnover ranked 5th of 279 days, the trade count ranked 2nd, and the buy ratio sat at the 54th percentile.

The latest daily buy ratio of 46.5% sits at the 8th percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 49.6% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
