Lighte announces the launch of its infrastructure token LIT, with 50% allocated to the ecosystem.

PANews, December 30 – Lighter announced the launch of its infrastructure token LIT on the X platform, introducing the structure, vision, and application scenario roadmap of LIT. All value created by Lighter's products and services will belong entirely to LIT holders. Lighter operates in the United States, and the token is issued directly by its C-class company, which will continue to operate the protocol at cost. Token allocation is split 50% to the ecosystem and 50% to the team/investors. The first and second season points campaigns to be held in 2025 have already generated 12.5 million points, which will be airdropped immediately, equivalent to 25% of the fully diluted value. The remaining 25% of the ecosystem tokens will be used for future points campaigns and, to a lesser extent, for partnerships and growth plans. Tokens for the team and investors have a one-year lock-up period, followed by a three-year linear vesting. Specifically, 26% is allocated to the team and 24% to investors.

LIT holders will have access to financial products capable of generating risk-adjusted returns and improving execution and capital efficiency. The infrastructure for executing financial transactions and verifying their fairness and correctness will be layered according to LIT staking and will become increasingly decentralized. Access to market data and price verification are also crucial components of the infrastructure required for future finance. Financial data providers and subscribers will use LIT as a fee token, and staking will incentivize the provision of verifiable data for trading and risk management.
