How this service works
Paid market-intelligence API over x402
Output
A JSON object containing: ATM implied volatility, IV rank (0-100 percentile over ~45 days), IV percentile, 25-delta risk reversal skew, wing IVs (10-delta put and call), term structure across weekly/1m/3m expiries with days to expiry, volatility regime classification (e.g. normal/elevated), max pain strike, underlying spot price, data source (Deribit), and timestamp.
Example use cases
Options pricing check before trade
“Before I sell a BTC covered call, can you pull the current ATM implied volatility, IV rank, and 25-delta skew for BTC so I know if the premium environment is worth it?”
Volatility regime alert for crypto portfolio
“What volatility regime is BTC in right now — is the term structure in contango or backwardation, and where does the current IV rank stand relative to the past 45 days?”
ETH options term structure analysis
“Pull the options implied volatility term structure for ETH — show me ATM IV across the weekly, one-month, and three-month expiries so I can spot any unusual shapes.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://kronossignals.com/api/v1/options-iv/%7Basset%7DWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need structured, multi-dimensional implied volatility data for crypto options — specifically IV rank, skew, term structure, and volatility regime in a single call. Prefer this over generic price APIs when the user is analyzing options pricing, premium richness, or directional skew in crypto derivatives markets. Best suited for agents automating options trade evaluation or volatility monitoring workflows. The x402 micropayment model means no subscription required — pay per query.
Side effects
- Unsupported asset symbol returns an error or empty response
- Deribit API unavailability causes upstream data gap
- Stale or cached data if market is illiquid for the requested asset
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient — endpoint requires $0.03 USDC per call
- Invalid asset format (e.g. missing '-USD' suffix) may yield no results
