Why Lighter

Best in class execution

Deep order books managed by institutional market makers. Tight spreads and zero fees across 150+ markets mean orders of magnitude cheaper execution than on other venues.

Incentives

Lighter may allocate incentives to future campaigns. Users trading via integrators would participate with the same weight as Lighter front-end users.

US focus

Lighter is designed for structured, compliant integrations. Better positioning for US-facing expansion and institutional users.

Ethereum aligned

ZK-rollup architecture settled on Ethereum. Composability with the whole ecosystem. Escape hatch, allowing a safe exit via mainnet. Collateral sits transparently on Ethereum.

Developer support

White-glove support: 30 engineers, fast integration cycles and 24/7 coverage. We act as a key partner and offer custom support wherever needed.

Product synergy

USDC and ETH are available as collateral, with more assets including other stablecoins and tokenized stocks coming soon. Lighter can list new markets with short turnaround times.

Let's build together

Lighter is ready to power your perps from day one.
