The day across the three live Derivasys markets.
The main relative-value development was a pronounced narrowing in one-week call-side volatility differences across the three major coins.
Cross-sectional observations
One-week ATM IV level dispersion: Compression: absolute level gap 15.67 vol points; absolute gap change -1.34 vol points. Stored one-week tenor comparison at this cutoff across 3 assets.
Daily one-week ATM IV-change dispersion: The cross-asset spread is 1.46 vol points. Stored daily changes across 3 assets.
BTC stands apart: 1W ATM IV change is 1.34 vol points above the group median. Stored cross-section of 3 assets at this report cutoff.
This is a comparison, not a pooled surface: each asset keeps its own forwards, expiries, SVI fit and realised-volatility history.
Cross-sectional thesis
Where the complex is diverging.
One-week ATM IV level dispersion is compressing, at 15.67 vol pts; daily one-week ATM IV changes span 1.46 vol pts across the complex.
BTC has the highest 1W IV-minus-7D-RV spread at -1.59 vol points; ETH has the lowest at -3.46 vol points. The range between these spreads is 1.87 vol points.
1W ATM IV change
+1.34 points from the group median
1W ATM IV level

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 2.5–3.5 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.
