Lighter has issues for a user seekig rewards -- the product is not even close to Hyperliquid. So to use it you would be reward not product oriented.
1. The company pivoted into a DEX from a different startup and has two complete sets of investors and VCs with token interest claims.
This puts you the reward seeking user in a very deep hole. Astronomically bad odds for you.
2. The points distribution is enormously skewed to the first few weeks where the hand selected users got huge points for small activity -- tremendous multiples.
3. As most users are significant losers in perp trading you need a reward and these claims sets of claimaints are multitudes ahead of you.
Good luck and change my mind if you can.
Interested in viable exchanges but do not think Lighter will be it for a user showing up today.
Lighter vs Hyperliquid
Wassup frens! A lot of you probably noticed @Lighter_xyz popping up in your fav DEGENS feed lately - some are calling it HL 2.0. But let’s dig a bit deeper:
First off, it’s being built on ZK (Zero Knowledge). zkSync fumbled the bag, yeah… but the underlying tech is still GIGA BULLISH
In simple terms: lets you prove you know/have something, without revealing what exactly you know
Example: degen wants to send 1 BTC and is asked to prove he has it. ZK proves he have it without doxxing your wallet or full balance
This is where the massive difference from HL kicks in. Anyone can track wallets, and big position alerts (like James Wynn) spread in minutes
Bigger players want privacy and that’s where Lighter SHINES
Even @cz_binance tweeted recently he wants to launch a ZK based DEX. Maybe to rival HL after the jellyjelly beef, or maybe MMs hunter paranoia vibes
Anyway Lighter ain’t just another perp DEX. It’s something new, something kinda breakthrough!
