Decentralized derivatives trading platform Lighter announced the launch of its infrastructure token, LIT (Lighter Infrastructure Token). Lighter stated that LIT is central to its "future financial infrastructure," aligning long-term incentives among traders, institutions, developers, teams, and investors. All value created by Lighter products and services will ultimately belong to LIT holders. LIT is directly issued by Lighter's US C-Corp entity, which will continue to operate the protocol at cost. Revenue generated by its core DEX and future products can be tracked on-chain in real time and will be allocated between ecosystem growth investment and token buybacks based on market conditions, aiming to maximize long-term value. Regarding token distribution, 50% of the total LIT supply will be allocated to the ecosystem, and 50% to the team and investors. Specifically, 12.5 million points generated in the first and second quarters of the 2025 points season will be airdropped at TGE, representing 25% of the total tokens; the remaining 25% ecosystem share will be used for future points seasons and some cooperation and growth incentives. In the team and investor portion, the team accounts for 26% and investors for 24%, both with a 1-year vesting period followed by linear release over 3 years. Regarding its use, Lighter states that future finance will be at the intersection of traditional finance and DeFi, and LIT's design focuses on how value flows within the financial system. LIT will be used as a layered infrastructure for trade execution and fairness verification (based on staking and gradually decentralized), as well as a fee and staking token for market data access and price verification, incentivizing verifiable data services for trading and risk management. LIT holders can also use related financial products to improve execution and capital efficiency and obtain risk-adjusted returns.
