Over the 11.5-hour observation window, the premium has oscillated between -150.9 bps and +78.1 bps, demonstrating significant intraday volatility in the token's pricing relative to the underlying equity. Pooled liquidity stands at $796,725, down from a baseline average near $891,495, while 24-hour volume of $3.08 million implies 3.87x turnover of available liquidity.
