So thanks to @fluxer555 I've integrated the price history for BTC and USD for the period I was missing, BTC in particular has tracked the real price quite well :)

It would be useful to set up a place where everybody can follow a number of metrics regarding the evolving history of the peg, especially for usd. This could also be used for marketing.

Things I think would be useful to track in charts are:

 - history of transactions, represented as discount of premium to feed price
 - volatility of bUSD
 - correlation of bUSD to fiat USD vs other currencies or gold
 - supply of bUSD
 - volume traded in bUSD
 - bid/ask spread
 - volumes transferred in bUSD

thoughts?

 +5% This is a good idea, it will be very useful and definitely from a marketing pov, some easy to evaluate & compare metrics of a BitAsset system that is hopefully functioning well and progressing in the right direction will be a great advertise-able, confidence building, track record that will really help market it.

No problem. If there's a site with graphs, there's usually an API for feeding it data... just open your network tab to see.

Edit: It seems you should know... ;)

I've added the real (Coinmarketcap) price for BTSX vs USD,CNY and BTC to my price history plots in the asset page. Since historical data isn't readily available I only have data from the 17th of September.

 +5% Yes! Something visual will be very good for marketing. Even if it shows some struggles early on, who cares it's still marketing gold.
