Lighter is launching its native token LIT, with 25% of the tokens to be used for future Point Seasons activities.

BlockBeats News, December 30, Lighter launched its native token LIT. The official statement said that all value created by Lighter products and services will belong to LIT holders. Currently, the team is building in the United States, and the token is issued directly by their Class C corporation, which will continue to operate the protocol at cost. The revenue of the core DEX product and future product services can be tracked on-chain in real-time and will be allocated to growth and buyback based on market conditions.

The LIT token distribution is as follows: Ecosystem (50%) and Team/Investors (50%). The first and second seasons of points launched in 2025 have generated 12.5 million points, which will be airdropped immediately, equivalent to 25% of the fully diluted value. The remaining 25% of the tokens allocated to the ecosystem will be used for future point season activities, as well as some partnership and growth plans. Both the team and investors have a 1-year unlocking period and a subsequent 3-year linear vesting period, with a specific allocation ratio of 26% for the team and 24% for investors.
