Shiba Inu (SHIB)

u.today reports that Shiba Inu began trading on a bullish note with a daily price increase of approximately 4% in the early hours of 13 September 2026. However, this upward momentum appears to be stalling as exchange activity shifts toward a bearish outlook. Data from CryptoQuant indicates a sudden reversal in exchange activity, resulting in a positive balance of 241,877,000,000 SHIB in netflow over the last 24 hours.
This massive inflow suggests that selling pressure is actively rising as traders move tokens back to exchanges rather than holding them. The positive balance signifies that the amount of SHIB returned for sale exceeds the amount moved out for buying by over 241 billion in a single day. Consequently, sellers have dominated the market as participants look to take profits following the recent price recovery.
This bearish exchange activity has caused Shiba Inu to slow down significantly, with on-chain data showing a flip to negative territory during the same day. As a result, the asset has shifted from its initial gains to a modest price decline of around 0.45%. Market participants are now hopeful for a potential reversal in exchange movement to drive a faster recovery for the price.
