Bitcoin Spot Data Shows Mixed Sentiment Amid Retirement Trust Survey
Beincrypto.com reports that a NIRS survey reveals 77% of Americans view crypto in retirement plans as risky. This skepticism persists even as fears of a retirement crisis reach 80%. The data highlights a disconnect between the desire for security and trust in Bitcoin as a vehicle for it. These findings were published on the BeInCrypto platform.
What Whalio's data showed
Binance spot order flow for BTC, measured when this story was published on 26 August 2026.
Bitcoin trades at $78,539.14 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 51.0%, indicating a near-even split in directional preference. The 1-hour buy ratio drops to 48.4% while the 4-hour ratio rises to 53.1%, suggesting short-term selling pressure is emerging against a longer-term neutral stance. Volume delta reflects this divergence, showing a -$2,340,106 net outflow in the last hour compared to a +$9,615,977 inflow over four hours. Despite the hourly outflow, the 24-hour volume delta remains strongly positive at +$40,417,819. However, the cumulative volume delta (CVD) at the 24-hour close is -$3,448,344, indicating that recent price action has been driven more by selling than buying. With net buying hours at 13 out of 24, buying pressure appears to be fading or consolidating after earlier accumulation.
