Over the 11.5-hour observation window, the premium has oscillated between +63.9 bps and -149.1 bps, with the current reading near the lower bound of this range. Liquidity stands at $768,516 with 24-hour volume of $2.59 million, implying 3.37x turnover. Concentration risk is acute: the top five holders control 85.67% of the 559,998 token supply.
