How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for BNB, measured when this story was written up on 30 August 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
BNB is trading at $692.58 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 54.5%, indicating a slight majority of buying pressure over the full day. However, the 1-hour buy ratio has dropped to 40.5%, suggesting that short-term momentum is currently fading compared to the longer trend. The 4-hour buy ratio sits at 60.3%, showing that buying interest remains stronger over a medium-term horizon than in the immediate hour. Volume delta reflects this shift, with a positive $3,932,071 over 24 hours but a negative $576,881 in the last hour. A positive volume delta means that buy volume exceeded sell volume, while a negative delta indicates the opposite. The cumulative volume delta for the day closed at +$7,273,485, confirming net buying pressure over the longer period despite recent weakness.
The latest daily buy ratio of 46.4% sits at the 18th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.2% - weaker buying than most days.
