146 Billion SHIB Moved to Exchanges Amid Sell Pressure
cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that 145.9 billion Shiba Inu tokens were transferred to exchanges on August 29, 2026. This inflow signals a potential sell-off, with the SHIB price currently trading at $0.0000055. The report suggests this support level could be tested in the coming days as billions of tokens face liquidation.
While inflows do not guarantee an immediate dump, they indicate a gradual process of hitting the exit button. The risk of a downturn is described as high, making entry positions hazardous for traders. Buying activity could stabilize the price if it remains strong this week.
However, SHIB is receiving no new influx of funds, and money from first-time investors has mostly dried up. Traders are looking elsewhere for profits as the dog-themed token has been on the back foot for over three years. The article notes that billions of tokens are likely to be liquidated, potentially leading to a price drop. It also references a related discussion on whether Shiba Inu can delete a zero if Bitcoin hits $100,000.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for SHIB, measured when this story was written up on 31 August 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio's Binance spot data shows SHIB trading at $0.0004960 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 55.4% against a 4-hour ratio of 48.2%. The 24-hour buy ratio sits at 49.2%, indicating that short-term buying pressure is building while the broader 4-hour trend remains slightly bearish. Volume delta reflects this shift, showing a positive $14,045 in the last hour but negative deltas of -$20,493 over 4 hours and -$59,231 over 24 hours. A positive volume delta means buyers are aggressively paying to execute trades, while a negative delta suggests sellers are dominating the flow. Despite the 1-hour surge, the 24-hour cumulative volume delta is positive at $74,227, showing net buying pressure has outweighed selling over the full day. Spot volume reached $3,845,183 with 27,579 trades in the last 24 hours.
The latest daily buy ratio of 45.6% sits at the 11th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.8% - weaker buying than most days.
