If you missed $ASTER now might be the time to check out $LIGHTER @Lighter_xyz ⚡️
It’s an Ethereum L2 perp DEX that mixes CEX-level speed and liquidity with on-chain transparency and security
Just a few days ago it raised $68M at a $1.5B valuation led by @foundersfund and @RibbitCapital , with @HaunVentures and @RobinhoodApp also joining, putting it on everyone’s radar
Why $LIGHTER caught my eye
• Ethereum-native and composable, liquidity works with Aave and other DeFi protocols
• Private test ran 8 months and the mainnet has been live since Oct 2
• 24h volume already $11B, now #1 among Perp DEXs
• 50% of tokens for the community, points farming still ongoing
• Rumored TGE around Christmas, early users from S1 and S2 could get 25 to 30% of total supply
$LIGHTER isn’t just another DEX . It brings near-CEX speed and liquidity on-chain and every trade can be verified on Ethereum
If they pull it off this could be one of the hottest L2 perp airdrop stories this year 🔥
