What is Lighter

LIT (Lighter Infrastructure Token) is the token of Lighter, a decentralized exchange for perpetual futures (leveraged contracts with no expiry date) and spot trading. The protocol is developed by Elliot Technologies, Inc., which does business as Lighter, and the project’s website lists Founders Fund, Ribbit Capital, Haun Ventures, Robinhood and Coinbase among its backers. The protocol whitepaper came out in October 2025, and LIT arrived in December 2025. It is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, with a version on Robinhood Chain as well.

Lighter is a ZK rollup, a layer 2 network on Ethereum built for a single job: trading. Orders are matched in an order book by price and time, and both matching and liquidations are backed by zero-knowledge proofs, cryptographic proofs that the computation was done correctly, which smart contracts on Ethereum verify. The same contracts hold deposits along with the data needed to rebuild any account’s state. A sequencer sets the order of transactions. If it fails to process a withdrawal request in time, an escape hatch kicks in: the contract freezes and users withdraw directly on Ethereum.

LIT can be staked for access to the LLP liquidity pool and for fee discounts on premium accounts, and the protocol buys back LIT every day with trading fee revenue. You do not need the token to trade: standard accounts pay no fees on regular orders, while premium accounts that want the lowest latency do pay them. Compared with Hyperliquid, which runs its own blockchain, Lighter anchors its exchange state and proof verification to Ethereum.

What it’s used for

  • staking for rewards and access to the LLP liquidity pool
  • trading fee discounts for premium accounts
  • paying for fee credits (LIT Fee Credits)

Risks

  • the token is tied to a single exchange: buybacks come from trading fees, and regular trades are free, so buyback volume depends on activity from professional traders
  • much of the supply is not yet circulating and will reach the market over time
  • under its terms of service, Lighter is not available to residents of the US, the UK, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and several other countries

Contract addresses

Check the contract address before you buy or send: fake tokens copy the name and ticker, but their address is different.

Questions

How much is Lighter worth today?

As of November 11, 2026, Lighter trades at $3.44. Over 24 hours the price moved +6.26%, over 7 days +0.81%. The price on this page refreshes automatically.

How many LIT are in circulation?

250.0 M LIT are in circulation. Max supply is 1.00 B LIT, so 25.0% has been issued. The fully diluted value of all coins is $3.38B.

What is the Lighter all-time high?

The all-time high of $7.86 was set on December 30, 2025. The price is now 56.23% below it. The all-time low was $0.7794 (March 31, 2026).

Do you need LIT to trade on Lighter?

No. Standard accounts trade perpetuals and spot with no fees on regular orders, and only TWAP orders and requests for quote (RFQ) carry a small fee. LIT is useful for premium accounts that want fee discounts and for anyone who wants to deposit into the LLP liquidity pool.

What happens to your funds if Lighter stops working?

Deposits sit in smart contracts on Ethereum, and you can send a withdrawal request there directly. If the sequencer does not process it in time, the contract freezes and you can use the data published on Ethereum to prove your balance and withdraw on your own.

How do I check a LIT address for AML risk?

Open @AMLmexmBot, pick the network (Ethereum (ERC-20)) and send a wallet address or a transaction hash. The bot shows the risk score in percent and where the funds came from. Your first check is free.
