Shiba Inu (SHIB) has risen nearly 2% over the past 7 days, pushing into the $0.00000650 area while derivatives open interest climbed above 6 billion tokens. The setup now hinges on SHIB holding the $0.00000650-$0.00000667 demand zone as short positioning slightly outweighs longs, even as Binance users skew more bullish. On the supply side, exchange reserves have dropped to 82.2 trillion coins from 170 trillion two years ago, a shift that could tighten liquidity if demand returns.

On May 8, 2026, Binance CEO Richard Teng said the company is building a financial “super app” spanning every asset class, with a goal of onboarding 3 billion new users.

HBAR slipped about 2% as traders pointed to a bearish head-and-shoulders setup, with $0.08950 highlighted as the key level to hold. If price remains below it, near-term targets cited include $0.08860 and $0.08780, while derivatives metrics showed Futures volume under $200 million and a long/short ratio that fell to 0.67.
