That would only be true if you already knew, with certainty, the existing influences on the token price.
The token price is a black box. We don't actually know what effects it. Sure, we can speculate with some certainty. But not enough to claim one thing and not another. If you can't say one thing effected the price, then you can't claim the opposite either.
If I make a drink that's 20% rum and 80% coke, it's still 100%. If I make a second drink that's 80% rum and 20% coke, it's still 100%. That's just an analogy to illustrate the point, but I hope you can understand what I'm getting at. It's entirely possibly that 100% of current token sales are going directly towards buying BOE corrupted gear, to the exclusion of other sales. The price of the token might not move significantly, but the portion of total token sales that goes towards buying BOEs is unknown.
Therefore it's not possible to say with certainty that BOE didn't influence token sales. For all we know the token sales might have dropped significantly without the availability of BOEs.
