How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for XRP, measured when this story was written up on 27 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
XRP is currently trading at $1.53 with a spot volume of $181,135,648 over the last 24 hours. The 1-hour buy ratio stands at 51.6%, indicating a short-term shift toward buying, while the 4-hour ratio has dropped to 45.4%, suggesting that buying pressure is fading over a slightly longer timeframe. The 24-hour buy ratio is 44.3%, showing that sellers have dominated the day overall. Volume delta data reflects this imbalance, with a positive $136,052 in the last hour contrasting sharply against a negative $3,304,679 over 4 hours and a significant negative $20,769,518 over 24 hours. This indicates that while there is momentary buying interest, the overall flow for the day has been heavily skewed toward selling.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.6% sits at the 83rd percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.5% - stronger buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for XRP, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, XRP experienced a price increase of 8.3% with a total volume delta of +$3,540,753. However, today's 24-hour buy ratio of 44.3% is notably lower than the weekly average of 50.1%, representing a 5.8 percentage point drop. Trading volume today is also significantly lower, recorded at 0.46 times the weekly average. While the week saw net buying on 3 of 7 days, today's metrics suggest a deviation from that recent trend, with only 6 hours of net buying recorded in the last 24 hours.
