The most anticipated TGE recently is none other than Lighter.

There are only 3 days left until TGE. Lighter previously opened reservations for conference calls, where users with top points rankings could have a 15-minute one-on-one session. Some major users who have already made calls, community members, and Lighter team members shared a lot of key information on Twitter, including TGE timing, token distribution, token buyback, and more. Based on these public disclosures, Rhythm BlockBeats has compiled a summary of the key points.

Has the TGE date been confirmed?

Answer: Yes, it has been confirmed that the TGE will be completed by the end of this year.

Note: Currently, on Polymarkets, there is a 91% probability that Lighter’s TGE will occur before December 31.

Could manual high-frequency trading accounts be considered wizards? How much is 1 point in $LIT?

Answer: Manual high-frequency trading is normal trading and will not be considered wizards. The exact value of 1 point in $LIT will be announced later.

What benefits will $LIT holders receive in the future? Will Lighter have a buyback plan?

Answer: Our interviews are also to ask everyone what specific benefits they hope for in the future. We will fully empower the token. It’s too early to answer the buyback plan now; relevant announcements will be made later.

What are the future plans after TGE?

Answer: We will launch s3 to continue incentivizing users. In Q1, we aim to implement a unified margin mechanism, and there will also be a mobile APP. Additionally, a prediction market will be launched. However, due to the large workload, the timeline is uncertain, but we aim to complete it within next year.

I know you plan not to list on CEX immediately. What if they force it?

Answer: They cannot withdraw funds.

Note: This seems to imply that even if CEX forces the listing, users cannot withdraw tokens to sell on the exchange, so they cannot cause a dump.

How does Lighter distribute fee income?

Answer: $LIT is not equity nor a dividend token. Therefore, the fees generated by the protocol are not used to distribute dividends or dividends to investors. Instead, they are funneled back into the protocol itself for ecosystem expansion, product growth, and most importantly, token buyback.

How is the airdrop share and tokenomics distribution model designed?

Answer: The specific Tokenomics details have not been fully disclosed yet, but the main distribution framework has been confirmed: the first round of airdrops will release 25% of the total supply, with another 25% reserved for future airdrop arrangements. All investors follow a three-year vesting schedule.

The community also mentioned that Justin Sun has provided a lot of liquidity for Lighter. How many points does he have?

Answer: Justin Sun has held over 10,000 points through multiple wallets early on. Afterwards, he proactively contacted the team to add more liquidity for LLP, all following the on-chain point acquisition rules.

What preparations have been made on the regulatory front?

Answer: Founder Vlad has visited Washington multiple times to communicate directly with regulators, including Senator Tim Scott and members of the Presidential Digital Asset Working Group. Before TGE, Lighter has been proactively advancing compliance and regulatory framework development.

Additionally, Vlad has also exchanged ideas with the Robinhood team regarding tokenized stocks.

What arrangements have been made with other CEX or trading platforms?

Answer: Lighter has not paid any listing fees to any trading platform. Nevertheless, Lighter has been included in Coinbase’s roadmap, which usually indicates some level of institutional due diligence has been conducted.

Are there any other unknown reward mechanisms?

Answer: There are no special incentives based on identity or roles, no hidden reward plans, and certainly no backend-distributed “gameplay.”
