Ah I see--I don't think we have that easily available unfortunately; you could try to look at MOVE contracts and see what happened there.

I see, I thought maybe there is a way to derive historical data and plot a chart for BVOL prior to its listing. I actually did look at MOVE contracts as well, but it seems BVOL tokens have cleaner trends and importantly they don't expiry. Anyways, thanks for your reply and time.
