BNB Price Holds Near $694 as Pepeto Presale Hits 42,000 Buyers
According to www.globenewswire.com, Pepeto announced its presale passed 42,000 buyers, marking the highest number for a new crypto in 2026. The project highlights BNB's price at $699, up 15.5% in a week, with predictions reaching $1,269 for this cycle. Analysts cite VanEck's spot BNB ETF and a major chain upgrade as key drivers for the bullish outlook. Pepeto positions itself as a meme coin with a trading platform utility, aiming for significant returns similar to past viral tokens. The presale closed early due to high demand, with 30% of the 420 trillion token supply reserved for this phase. Investors are encouraged to act quickly before the current stage ends and a Binance debut occurs. The narrative contrasts BNB's steady growth with the explosive potential of early-stage meme coins.
What Whalio's data showed
Binance spot order flow for BNB, measured when this story was published on 26 August 2026.
BNB trades at $694.41 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 60.7%, indicating strong immediate buying pressure compared to the 46.4% ratio over the last 24 hours. Short-term volume delta is positive at +$532,720 for the hour and +$82,388 for the 4-hour window, suggesting accumulation in the near term. However, the 24-hour volume delta is -$8,722,050 and CVD closes at -$8,847,610, showing that net selling has dominated the full day despite the recent uptick. The shift from negative 24-hour delta to positive short-term deltas implies that buying pressure is building after a period of distribution. The higher 1-hour buy ratio relative to the 24-hour average confirms that recent trades are skewed toward buyers, potentially signaling a short-term reversal or consolidation phase.
