Shiba Inu (SHIB)

u.today reports that Shiba Inu (SHIB) is returning to a crucial technical support zone after hundreds of billions of tokens left exchanges in a single day. Exchange data shows approximately 461.4 billion SHIB in flows against 229.0 billion in outflows, creating a negative net flow of 232.4 billion SHIB. Total exchange reserves dropped by 0.27% to 86.97 trillion tokens, with their dollar value falling 1.43% to $440.9 million.
Transfers increased by only 0.87% to 4,429, indicating the withdrawal imbalance was not driven by a surge in transaction volume. This reduction in available sell-side liquidity typically supports prices, though the seven-day moving average of outflows fell 37.5%, signaling weakening intensity. SHIB reversed from a September high of $0.00000555 and is now trading near $0.00000505.
The asset has broken a rising trendline that supported its late-August recovery. Bulls must hold the $0.00000495–$0.00000505 cluster to rebuild momentum toward $0.0000053. Failure to hold this area could see prices drop to $0.0000047–$0.0000045. Momentum is currently weak, with the RSI at 47.3, below its signal line of 54.2.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for SHIB, measured when this story was written up on 12 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio data shows SHIB trading at $0.000005170 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 35.5% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 64.1%. The 24-hour buy ratio stands at 48.2%, suggesting that while short-term selling pressure exists, the four-hour timeframe shows stronger accumulation. Volume delta reflects this divergence, showing a negative $13,225 in the last hour but a positive $91,014 over four hours. Over 24 hours, the volume delta is -$178,440, with a cumulative CVD of -$144,575. This indicates that while larger timeframes see net buying, the immediate hourly flow is net selling. Spot volume reached $4,817,272 across 38,105 trades, with net buying occurring in 12 of 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.
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 47.8%, compared to today's 24-hour ratio of 48.2%, a difference of just 0.4 points. Weekly volume was 1.20x the average, indicating slightly higher activity than usual. However, only one of the past seven days saw net buying, contrasting with today's mixed 12-hour split. The eight-day price change was -1.1%, with a total volume delta of -$1,413,955. This suggests that while today's volume is elevated, the broader weekly trend remains dominated by net outflows.
