Lighter launches native token LIT, 25% of tokens to be used for future points season activities

Techub News reports that Lighter has launched its native token LIT. Officially, all value created by Lighter's products and services will accrue to LIT holders. The team is currently building in the United States, and the token is issued directly by its Class C corporation, which will continue to operate the protocol at cost. Revenue from the core DEX product and future product services can be tracked on-chain in real-time and will be allocated to growth and buybacks based on market conditions. The LIT token allocation ratio is: Ecosystem (50%) and Team/Investors (50%). The first and second seasons of points conducted 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 tokens allocated to the ecosystem will be used for future points season activities, as well as a small number of partnerships and growth initiatives. Both the team and investors are subject to a 1-year lock-up period followed by a 3-year linear vesting schedule, with specific allocation ratios being 26% for the team and 24% for investors.
