SOL drives a sharp break across major-coin volatility

SOL’s 1W ATM IV fell 10.73 volatility points, compared with a 0.78-point decline in ETH 1W ATM IV and a 0.81-point decline in BTC 1W ATM IV. That left 9.95 volatility points of 1W ATM IV change dispersion. The front-end convergence came with distinct skew and curve profiles.

Measured change since prior report

Prior comparison unavailable: matching asset, cadence and adjacent observation endpoints were not verified.

A structured watchlist was not recorded or could not be verified in the prior edition; prior-watch outcomes remain unavailable.

Next daily cutoff: measurable checks

These checks are reconstructed from this edition’s stored endpoints; they were not recorded in the original report.

Measurable watch unavailable: no valid nonzero surface move has comparable endpoints.

Measurement basis and receipt

These are observed-level conditions for the next aligned cutoff, with no forecast or trade action. Spot uses exact index endpoints where available; ATM IV is quoted in percent and its change, RR25 and BF25 in volatility points. Derived from verified legacy artifact endpoints.

    Completed-session cross-asset context

    Crypto volatility against VIX and SPX.

    The benchmark comparison is separately timestamped to the latest completed US session; it does not replace the intraday crypto surface cutoffs above.

    BTC and ETH and SOL 30-day implied volatility remained 2.4–4.3 times VIX, while short-window equity correlations remained low.

    06 · Methodology and provenance

    A derived publication with no duplicated market data.

    The report is assembled at request time from the immutable BTC, ETH and SOL daily-report artifacts for the same UTC report date. It is omitted unless all three exist. Cross-asset averages are descriptive and equal-weighted; no attempt is made to combine distinct volatility surfaces into a single fit.
