Lighter's public Mainnet is officially launched, kicking off the second season of the points program. According to BlockBeats news on October 2, Perp DEX Lighter announced that its Mainnet based on Ethereum L2 is officially online after 8 months of private testing. The first season of the points program has ended, and the second season will last until the end of 2025, with detailed information on how to earn points to be announced soon. Users can now join freely without needing an invitation code or deposit limit, but the invitation program remains, allowing invitees to receive incentives such as points. The smart contracts of the Lighter protocol have been audited and a public report has been released, while a new blockchain explorer has also gone live to facilitate users in checking their orders and transaction status. Retail investors will have free access to low-frequency or mid-frequency trading on the front end, while API trading (including market makers and high-frequency traders) will start incurring fees, and automated rules have been introduced to prevent wash trading and Sybil Attack. With the launch of the second season of the points program, the team will disclose more data regarding fee distribution, LLP holders' earnings, and the protocol treasury mechanism.
