In brief

  • About 161.1 billion SHIB left exchanges in 24 hours versus 133.8 billion deposited, per U.Today.
  • SHIB exchange reserves have slid for about a week to near $471.5 million.
  • SHIB's 7-day average inflow rose about 13%, so some sellers are still active.
  • U.Today's analysis treats $0.00000560 as the main trend test and $0.00000510 as the line that matters.

What the exchange data shows

The gap works out to a net flow of about -27.3 billion SHIB, according to U.Today. Exchange reserves (the total SHIB held on trading venues) have been sliding for about a week. The outlet put their dollar value near $471.5 million after a drop of roughly 1.5% in a day.

Why does that matter? U.Today's reasoning is simple. Coins sent to an exchange are often ready to be sold, while coins withdrawn to personal wallets tend to be held longer, so shrinking reserves leave fewer coins available for quick selling (which the outlet said can support price over time).

It isn't a clean read, though.

The 7-day average inflow rose about 13% over the prior day, U.Today reported, which suggests some sellers are still active. The outlet itself described the on-chain data as giving mixed signals.

The levels U.Today is watching

U.Today's analysis treats the long-term average near $0.00000560 as the main trend test, and SHIB was sitting below it at publication. Price has been rejected in the $0.00000550 to $0.00000560 area several times, per the outlet.

On the downside, U.Today puts support at $0.00000530. A wick reached $0.00000510 on October 6. The analysis calls that the next floor, with the round $0.00000500 level beneath it.

What would confirm or break the thesis

U.Today's framework cuts both ways. According to the analysis, a close above $0.00000560 on strong volume would put buyers in control, with targets at $0.00000580 and then $0.00000600. If SHIB closes below $0.00000510, the reversal idea fails, it said, and the next support zone sits between $0.00000470 and $0.00000450 (where the summer lows formed).

That's U.Today's read, not ours.

Net outflows aren't proof that holders won't sell, and U.Today's own figures show the selling side hasn't gone quiet.

Frequently asked questions

Why do SHIB exchange outflows matter?

U.Today said coins sent to an exchange are often ready to be sold, while coins withdrawn to personal wallets are often held longer. When exchange reserves shrink, fewer coins are available for quick selling, which the outlet said can support price over time.

Is the SHIB on-chain data clearly bullish?

No. U.Today described the data as giving mixed signals. Net flow was about -27.3 billion SHIB, but the 7-day average exchange inflow rose about 13% over the prior day, which the outlet said shows some sellers are still active.

Which SHIB price levels is U.Today's analysis watching?

U.Today treats the long-term average near $0.00000560 as the main trend test, with support at $0.00000530 and $0.00000510. In its analysis, a close below $0.00000510 would invalidate the reversal idea, and the next support area sits between $0.00000470 and $0.00000450.
