Scalable
Engineered for scale, processing tens of thousands of orders and cancels per second with millisecond latency.
Lighter is a zero-knowledge rollup on top of Ethereum optimized for speed, throughput and scale that generates ZK proofs of all operations including order matching and liquidations.
Efficient
Infrastructure for matching orders and proving the correctness of the matching is highly optimized for low costs, allowing zero fees for retail traders and very competitive fees for high frequency traders.
Verifiable
Lighter strictly adheres to a publicly predefined set of rules. All operations including matching and liquidations are proven cryptographically and verified publicly on Ethereum.
Secure
Lighter uses Ethereum as the base layer for proofs and system state changes. Users can deposit or withdraw securely through Ethereum, with all proofs verified publicly.
