🪄 What is Lighter?

Lighter Perp DEX is a decentralized perpetual futures exchange built on Ethereum L2, utilizing ZK-based technology to provide a verifiable trading environment. Despite being an early-stage Perp DEX, it records overwhelmingly high trading volume compared to similar platforms.

Lighter is currently preparing for its end-of-year TGE (Token Generation Event), and operates a point system called Lighter Point to evaluate user contribution to the platform. Points accumulated by users are expected to be used as an allocation criteria for a future airdrop. 
 

✅ Key Features of Lighter DEX

• Instant sign-up and deposit via connection of a Web3 digital wallet (Metamask, Phantom, etc.)
• No KYC required
• 0% trading fees
• Lighter Points earned based on trading volume and activity
• Eligible for point-based airdrop rewards
  
   

🧰 What You Need Before Starting

• One Web3 wallet such as Metamask or Phantom
• Assets stored in the wallet:
  • Minimum 5 USDC (Arbitrum network) — Actual deposit amount
