Techbullion.com reports that LayerZero’s ZRO token has roughly doubled in price, rising from $1.04 on September 17 to above $2 in early October 2026. This rally places the cross-chain infrastructure project back on traders’ watchlists ahead of a scheduled token unlock on October 20, 2026. The upcoming unlock tests whether market demand can absorb the additional supply released from the vesting sequence.
Meanwhile, Remittix is preparing for its November 24 RTX debut with a planned $0.46 final presale tier. Remittix Markets is already live, reporting over $50 million in cumulative trading volume. The platform also features a wallet with more than 10,000 iOS downloads and PayFi, which converts crypto to fiat via compatible banks.
One thousand existing RTX holders have been invited to test initial EUR and USD options. Remittix states that over 40,000 people have participated in the presale, raising over $32 million toward a $36 million hard cap. The project aims to build a broader audience through trading and payments before public trading opens. ZRO’s price momentum reflects expectations about the value of its infrastructure and future token economics.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ZRO, measured when this story was written up on 7 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows ZRO trading at $2.25 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 50.3%, indicating balanced sentiment over the full day. However, shorter-term pressure has shifted slightly bearish, with the 1-hour buy ratio at 48.9% and the 4-hour ratio at 46.3%. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at +$127,990, suggesting net buying over the longer timeframe, while the 1-hour delta is negative at -$9,080. This divergence implies that immediate buying pressure is fading compared to the previous 24 hours. The CVD closed at +$16,428, confirming that cumulative buying has outweighed selling over the day. Net buying occurred in 14 of the last 24 hours, with spot volume reaching $18,046,117 across 161,501 trades.
The latest daily buy ratio of 49.7% sits at the 64th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.5% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
