Lighter Spot has officially launched its platform, enabling Ethereum ($ETH) as the first asset available for deposits and trading. This milestone marks the initial phase of the platform's rollout, expanding the exchange's offerings beyond its initial derivative products into spot markets. Since the launch, traders in the community have noted that the move may be tied to a points allocation program designed to incentivize early liquidity and volume. Initial observations from early users suggest competitive fee structures are already in place as liquidity builds on the new ETH pair. [Update 1] Additional details have emerged regarding the launch incentives. Speculation suggests a potential airdrop or points system is active to bootstrap the spot market. Lighter aims to position itself directly against other order-book based DEXs on Ethereum.
