cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that Shiba Inu experienced a 180-degree shift in trajectory over the last 24 hours following the confirmation of a negative netflow exceeding 202 billion tokens across cryptocurrency exchanges. On-chain data from CryptoQuant reveals that the centralized exchange netflow balance stood at exactly -202,237,600,000 SHIB during trading on Thursday, September 17. This drop represents an approximate 5% contraction in the metric compared to the previous reading. An industry source pointed out that this behavior suggests buying pressure has regained operational control following several days of volatility.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for SHIB, measured when this story was written up on 18 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Shiba Inu is trading at $0.000005160 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 64.8%, indicating strong immediate buying pressure that contrasts with the 4-hour ratio of 42.2% and the 24-hour ratio of 45.8%. The 1-hour volume delta is positive at +$24,741, while the 4-hour delta is -$67,912 and the 24-hour delta is -$397,415, showing that recent inflows are outpacing the broader daily outflow. The buy ratio represents the percentage of trades executed by buyers versus sellers, while the volume delta measures the net value of buying pressure minus selling pressure over the period. Although the 24-hour trend remains negative, the sharp rise in the 1-hour buy ratio suggests that buying momentum is currently building in the short term.
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 47.8%, making today’s 24-hour ratio of 45.8% slightly below average by 2.1 points. Volume for the day was 1.26x the weekly average, indicating that trading activity is significantly higher than usual. While the coin saw a price increase of 2.4% over eight days, the total volume delta for that period was -$1,168,319, reflecting a net outflow of capital. This day is unusual due to the elevated volume relative to the average, despite the buy ratio being marginally lower than the weekly norm.
