The recent pressure sources in the perpetual DEX track are indeed worth paying attention to. Lighter has been continuously declining since its launch, which has had a noticeable impact on the overall enthusiasm for the perp trading market. The ripple effect is also reflected in the expectations of other projects—edgeX's market cap estimate was affected as a result, with the market's confidence index for 2B's market cap dropping from 89% to 78%. Now, 1B has become a more realistic expectation. This wave of market movements is indeed hard to predict, but it also reflects the market's reassessment of the perpetual DEX niche track. It's a bit like waiting for the next turning point.

From 89 to 78, that's called a slide, directly cutting the price by 50% is indeed a bit harsh. Lighter's performance this time is really disappointing.

The perp track is starting to cool down, and Lighter's decline is really ugly... Even edgeX has been dragged down, and the confidence dropped from 89% to 78%, I really can't hold on anymore.

Lighter's downward trend really hits hard; it feels like the entire perp sector has been dragged down.

Lighter really let us down this time, even edgeX was affected. Going from 2B to 1B, it shrank so much. The perp sector seems to be a bit cold.

Lighter's performance this time was indeed disappointing, dragging down the overall perp ecosystem's expectations... The drop from 89 to 78 is quite steep.

Lighter really underperformed this time, and it feels like the entire perp sector has been dragged down by it.
