Shiba Inu (SHIB)

cvj.ai reports that Shiba Inu (SHIB) exchange outflows surged 121.26% in a single day to an estimated 579 million SHIB. This withdrawal of tokens from trading platforms typically signals reduced immediate sell pressure and long-term holder conviction. However, exchange inflows rose even faster, climbing 182.3% to roughly 1.68 billion SHIB.
Consequently, net exchange flow remains positive at approximately 86.53 billion SHIB, with exchange reserves increasing by 0.1% to about 87.29 trillion SHIB. The token is currently trading near $0.00000520 after dropping nearly 4% on the daily candle. A recent recovery attempt was rejected at $0.00000540, which now acts as immediate resistance.
The major long-term moving average sits at $0.00000568, serving as a key barrier. Analysts note that rising inflows and technical weakness suggest the immediate path of least resistance may be downward. The coming days will determine if SHIB can defend its support or face further declines.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for SHIB, measured when this story was written up on 5 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio data shows SHIB trading at $0.000005230 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 51.7% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 54.3%. These short-term ratios indicate slightly stronger buying pressure compared to the 24-hour buy ratio of 43.0%. The 1-hour volume delta is positive at +$7,528, while the 4-hour delta is +$93,371, contrasting with a negative 24-hour delta of -$545,166. A positive volume delta means buy volume exceeds sell volume, suggesting net accumulation during those periods. The negative 24-hour delta indicates that over the full day, sellers have dominated buyers. This divergence suggests that recent buying activity is stronger than the broader daily trend.
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 7-day average buy ratio was 49.2%, compared to the latest day's 43.0%, a drop of 6.3 points. This indicates that buying interest has weakened relative to the weekly average. Weekly volume was 1.10x the average, showing higher activity than usual. Net buying occurred on only 2 of the 7 days, with a total volume delta of -$933,838. This contrasts with the recent positive short-term deltas, highlighting a shift from weekly selling pressure to recent short-term buying.
