While Diffusion Transformers (DiTs) have revolutionized high-fidelity video generation, their reliance on 3D full attention creates a quadratic computational bottleneck. Existing sparse methods face a dilemma: dynamic pruning suffers from prohibitive runtime overhead and memory fragmentation, while static heuristics fail to capture fine-grained dependencies. In this work, we propose ScalingAttention, a training-free framework grounded in a key inductive bias: while individual activations are input-dependent, the high-mass attention regions for each head rapidly converge to a stable, prompt-agnostic Intrinsic Sparse Topology. This topology is weight-encoded, scale-invariant, and efficient to extract. ScalingAttention decouples topology discovery from sparsity control via: (1) WEST (Weight-Encoded Sparse Topology), which extracts a robust block-sparse prior mask offline to eliminate runtime search; (2) FAST (Fidelity-Aware Sensitivity Tuning), which adaptively tunes head-wise sparsity based on diffusion fidelity requirements. To ensure practical acceleration, we co-design a hardware-aligned bit-wise block-sparse kernel. Experiments on Wan2.1 show up to 1.90X end-to-end speedup with superior fidelity, establishing a new Pareto frontier over state-of-the-art baselines.
