Major-coin options compress as Ether drives the volatility reset

Major-coin one-week ATM IV fell across Bitcoin, Ether and Solana, but the adjustment was uneven: Ether fell 3.12 volatility points, Bitcoin declined 1.58 points and Solana eased 0.45 points. That left a 2.67-point cross-asset dispersion in daily one-week ATM IV changes at the cutoff.

01 · Market read

The day across the three live Derivasys markets.

The major-coin complex compressed in one-week ATM IV, with Ether’s 3.12-point decline exceeding Bitcoin’s 1.58-point fall and Solana’s 0.45-point easing. Solana nevertheless held the highest one-week RR25 at 4.50%, versus Ether’s -1.16%.

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 +15.25 vol pts; daily one-week ATM IV changes span +2.67 vol pts across the complex.

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.
