History
87 data points since Aug 4, 2026. Gaps mean nothing changed — the value carries forward.
The blurred area is the rest of the history. 113 further data points reach back to Jun 1, 2020 — your plan shows the last 90 days of it. How far each series in particular reaches is written on its own chart; not every one of them goes back that far. The shape in the blurred area is decoration, not data: the figures are not in this page at all. Plus unlocks the complete series.
Lowest price in the visible window: $0.00 on Aug 4, 2026. That is the current price.
