bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Bitcoin above $86,000 is pulling the market higher, but the spotlight is now on Shiba Inu. SHIB is heading into October, historically its strongest month, in unusually strong form. The idea that investors have finally reached “that month” could become the week’s main talking point.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for SHIB, measured when this story was written up on 25 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Shiba Inu is trading at $0.000005770 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 54.2%, indicating that more money is flowing into buys than sells in the short term. This 1-hour ratio is higher than the 4-hour reading of 51.6% and the 24-hour average of 52.1%, suggesting that buying pressure is building rather than fading. The volume delta shows positive inflows of +$42,529 over the last hour and +$39,533 over the last four hours, meaning net buying is actively occurring. Over the full day, the cumulative volume delta stands at +$226,228, confirming sustained demand.
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.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for SHIB, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 49.6%, making the current 24-hour ratio of 52.1% an unusual day of stronger buying compared to the recent norm. Volume activity has been subdued, with the 24-hour spot volume of $5,294,559 representing just 0.58x the average level. Despite lower volume, the coin has seen a price change of +11.8% over eight days, driven by net buying days outpacing selling days three to four. The total volume delta for the week reached +$666,725, showing that the recent daily inflows are part of a broader weekly accumulation trend.
