bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Filecoin has surged over 20% to reach $0.8, breaking above a key resistance zone. The token is showing strength amid persistent market weakness and has become one of the top-performing tokens. This move is backed by improving derivatives, suggesting stronger participation behind the rally. The price action places Filecoin back in focus among crypto traders.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for FIL, measured when this story was written up on 2 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows Filecoin trading at $0.7794 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 57.7%, indicating immediate buying pressure. This short-term intensity contrasts with the 4-hour buy ratio of 50.1%, suggesting the aggressive buying is concentrated in the last hour rather than sustained over a longer period. The 24-hour buy ratio stands at 53.6%, showing that buying has been the majority side of the market over the full day. Volume delta reflects this activity, with +$177,945 in the last hour and a cumulative 24-hour delta of +$1,427,039. The cumulative volume delta (CVD) for the 24-hour close is +$1,560,092, confirming net positive flow. Net buying occurred for 16 of the last 24 hours, with spot volume reaching $20,200,579 across 312,632 trades.
The latest daily buy ratio of 48.2% sits at the 38th percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 48.9% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for FIL, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Compared to the preceding week, today's 24-hour buy ratio of 53.6% is +6.1 points higher than the 7-day average of 47.5%. Spot volume is also elevated, trading at 3.75 times the weekly average. While the price has risen 9.5% over eight days, the 8-day volume delta is -$1,001,225, indicating that the broader weekly trend has seen more selling than buying. This day stands out as unusual because it is only the 1st day of net buying in the last 7 days, despite the volume surge.
