Shiba Inu’s recent drop to local lows has triggered a dramatic wave of accumulation among major investors. Over the past four days, a staggering 443.205 billion SHIB have left exchanges, according to data from CryptoQuant. Investors began moving their tokens off centralized exchanges after $SHIB hit a local bottom of $0.00000415 on Thursday, June 25. On the same day, the daily RSI indicator plunged to 21.84, signaling a deeply oversold market.
Sharp outflows from exchanges draw attention
The swift reaction of major players became clear as SHIB entered oversold territory. Within the first 24 hours, a net 158.353 billion SHIB flowed out of exchanges, leading to a significant reduction in tokens available for immediate trading. This reflects a change in market structure and liquidity.
Between June 25 and June 28, net exchange flows remained in negative territory. While the price continued its gradual pullback as of Saturday, June 27, charts revealed a fresh wave of buying. As a result, total net outflows since Thursday have reached 443.205 billion SHIB.
Mini glossary: A net outflow means more tokens are withdrawn from exchanges than deposited. The RSI (Relative Strength Index) is a technical indicator that measures the speed and magnitude of price shifts; readings below 30 typically signal an oversold condition.
Recovery faces headwinds amid persistent pressure
SHIB is currently seeing tight-range trading around $0.0000041, with diminished candlestick size suggesting a short-term pause. Yet, sustained outflows from exchanges are not in line with the market’s usual rhythm after such drops—hinting at quiet accumulation rather than panic selling.
Typically, sharp declines are met by a rush of smaller investors moving their tokens onto exchanges in fear. This time, the opposite is unfolding: major capital appears to be steadily absorbing supply, removing tokens from the open market.
Whale sales and futures trading impact remain
However, a robust short-term rally faces obstacles. One of the oldest whale wallets reportedly distributed about 3.8 trillion SHIB this June. This whale had previously amassed 103 trillion SHIB for just $13,752. Additionally, a daily outflow of $2.38 million from SHIB futures markets has contributed to a decrease in volatility.
Despite the marked reduction in exchange supply, the price staying inside a tight band indicates the market is witnessing both gradual accumulation by buyers and persistent selling pressure.
Meanwhile, trading volume has concentrated in the $0.00000500 area. If liquidity in exchange order books continues to thin, a powerful buying wave could emerge—potentially sparking a rapid short squeeze if sellers dry up. Such a scenario could force the price upward toward its mid-term averages, catching short positions off guard.
