cryptobriefing.com reports that wallets linked to the TRUMP token team have transferred 81.87 million tokens to Binance and OKX over the past eight months. These inflows represent approximately $249 million in value at the time of the transfers. The team launched with 800 million tokens, or 80% of the 1 billion total supply, and has now sold roughly 8.2% of that total.
Despite these sales, the team retains 718 million tokens, which equals 71.8% of the supply. At current prices, this remaining holding is valued at approximately $1.49 billion. On-chain data indicates that most of the transferred tokens landed on Binance and OKX.
In September 2026, about 8.4 million TRUMP were sent to OKX deposit addresses following an unlock, valued at $18 million. The token trades on the Solana blockchain and hit a peak of $73.43 before settling around $2. Various unlocks are scheduled until late 2027, leaving outside holders with a thin slice of the float. The team has not been transparent about its trading intentions, forcing traders to monitor wallet movements via platforms like Arkham Intelligence and Ember Monitoring.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for TRUMP, measured when this story was written up on 3 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio data shows TRUMP trading at $2.12 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 51.4%, indicating a slight edge for buyers over the full day. However, shorter timeframes show weaker sentiment, with the 1-hour buy ratio at 41.8% and the 4-hour ratio at 44.9%. This drop in buying pressure on shorter charts suggests that immediate momentum is fading compared to the daily average. Volume delta reflects this shift, showing a positive $951,960 over 24 hours but negative deltas of -$53,925 for 1 hour and -$144,660 for 4 hours. The buy ratio measures the proportion of buy volume relative to total volume, while volume delta tracks the net value of aggressive buying versus selling. While daily net buying remains positive, the intraday data points to reduced aggression from buyers in the most recent hours.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.0% sits at the 60th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.4% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for TRUMP, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio stood at 49.4%, meaning today’s 24-hour ratio of 51.4% is 2.0 points higher than the weekly norm. Spot volume today reached $33,550,307, which is 1.58 times the weekly average, marking a notably active trading day. Despite this increased volume and slightly better buy ratio, the price change over the eight-day period was only -0.3%. The week saw net buying on only 3 of 7 days, with a total volume delta of -$692,237. This indicates that while today is an unusual day for volume and short-term buying ratios, the broader weekly trend remains slightly bearish with net outflows dominating the period.
