How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for DOT, measured when this story was written up on 31 August 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Polkadot is trading at $0.8190 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 52.3% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 50.8%. These short-term figures indicate a slight majority of buyers, contrasting with the 24-hour buy ratio of 45.6%. The volume delta shows positive inflows of $7,464 over the last hour and $11,643 over four hours. However, the 24-hour volume delta is negative at -$403,829, suggesting net selling pressure over the longer timeframe. The Cumulative Volume Delta closed at +$24,000 for the day. This means that while recent hours saw net buying, the daily trend has been dominated by net selling. Buying pressure appears to be building in the short term but remains weak over the full day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.4% sits at the 73rd percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 48.9% - stronger buying than most days.
Twenty-four hours later
What DOT did over the 23 hours after the story broke. The market moves for its own reasons; this is what happened, not what the story caused.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for DOT, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 47.8%, with the latest day showing a 2.2-point drop from that average. Spot volume was 0.88 times the weekly average, indicating lower-than-usual activity. The coin experienced an 11.7% price decline over eight days. Net buying occurred on only 3 of the 7 days in the period. The total volume delta for the week was -$1,438,857. This recent daily activity is consistent with a broader weekly trend of net outflows and reduced volume.
