Shiba Inu Sees Major Exchange Withdrawals Amid Mixed Market Signals
Shiba Inu (SHIB) is experiencing significant exchange flows, with a notable shift favoring withdrawals. Data shows roughly 406 billion SHIB separating the latest inflow and outflow figures, with outflows currently at 356.7 billion SHIB and inflows at 287.2 billion. This results in a negative netflow of approximately 101.2 billion SHIB, indicating more tokens are leaving centralized exchanges than entering them.
Exchange reserves have declined by 0.11% over 24 hours, dropping to about 88.03 trillion tokens, with the dollar value of those reserves falling 1.42% to around $519.4 million. However, the intensity of withdrawals has weakened substantially, with the seven-day moving average of mean exchange outflows collapsing by 51.4%. Active addresses have also remained almost unchanged, rising just 0.87%, suggesting no obvious explosion in network demand accompanying the exchange withdrawals.
SHIB is currently trading around $0.00000589, having recovered from September's sub-$0.00000500 levels. The price remains above the major long-term moving average near $0.00000565, which has repeatedly attracted buyers during recent corrections. On the upside, SHIB continues to struggle with the $0.00000600, $0.00000610 region, with multiple attempts to establish a sustained breakout failing. The September peak around $0.00000630 remains a larger technical barrier.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains moderately bullish without reaching overbought territory, indicating that momentum itself does not prevent another breakout attempt. While the exchange data provides some support, the movement of 406 billion tokens alone is unlikely to determine SHIB's direction. Bulls need to convert declining exchange reserves and negative netflows into actual demand to confirm a sustained upward trend.
