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’s Binance spot data for SHIB shows a price of $0.000005230 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 35.8% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 36.7%. These short-term figures are lower than the 24-hour buy ratio of 43.0%, indicating that buying pressure is fading relative to the daily average. The 1-hour volume delta is -$83,874 and the 4-hour volume delta is -$220,924, showing that selling volume has exceeded buying volume in recent hours. The 24-hour cumulative volume delta is -$304,014, confirming that net selling has dominated the day's flow.
The latest daily buy ratio of 43.0% sits at the 2nd percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 48.8% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
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 49.2%, making today’s 24-hour ratio of 43.0% a decline of 6.3 percentage points. While spot volume was 1.10x the average, the 8-day volume delta total was -$933,838, indicating sustained net selling pressure. Net buying occurred on only 2 of the 7 days, contrasting with the 11 hours of net buying recorded in the last 24 hours. This suggests that despite higher volume, the coin has experienced more days of net outflows than inflows recently.
