#Lighter Airdrop Odds Hit 86% as #Hyperliquid Lists $LIT


Lighter, a perpetual decentralized exchange and major rival to Hyperliquid, is fueling airdrop speculation as #Polymarket traders bet on a token launch before year's end. At least 86% of traders have positioned predictions on a yes scenario, with $9.5 million in volume backing bets for a Dec. 31 deadline.


Sebas, a core contributor to the #LighterDEX, announced on the project's Discord channel Monday that the platform is finalizing key processes ahead of the highly anticipated token generation event. The team is running data science to remove Sybil, self-trading and wash-trading points, with all slashed and removed points planned for redistribution to the community.


The announcement fueled growing optimism over Lighter's airdrop, further amplified with Hyperliquid's listing of the yet-to-launch Lighter token against $USDC on Monday. Lighter launched an airdrop allocation form on Sunday, allowing users to direct tokens to up to four additional wallets.


The optional form lets users allocate different token amounts to each wallet, with submissions accepted through Friday. Sebas said on Discord that if users do not submit the form and are eligible, the airdrop will be sent to their main Lighter account.
