What is Lighter

Lighter is a fully verifiable decentralized perpetual futures exchange built as a custom application-specific ZK-rollup on Ethereum. The platform generates zero-knowledge proofs for all key operations, including order matching and liquidations, delivering both the security and composability of Ethereum and the high speed and throughput of traditional centralized exchanges.

Designed for security, scale, and performance, Lighter offers zero-fee trading for retail users while maintaining non-custodial asset control and institutional-grade latency. Backed by top-tier investors, it provides traders with a transparent, efficient, and highly performant venue for perpetual futures trading.
