Recently, the most anticipated TGE is undoubtedly Lighter.
There are 3 days left until the TGE, and Lighter has previously opened up reservations for a conference call. Users with higher point rankings can have a 15-minute one-on-one conversation. Some large holders, community members, and Lighter team members who have already participated in the calls have shared a lot of key information on Twitter, including the TGE time, token distribution, token buyback, and more. Based on this public information, Rhythm BlockBeats has compiled the relevant key points.
1. Has the time for the TGE been confirmed?
Answer: Yes, it has been confirmed that the TGE will be completed by the end of this year.
Rhythm BlockBeats Note: Currently, the probability of Lighter's TGE occurring before December 31 on Polymarkets is 91%.
2. Is there a possibility of a witching event for manual high-frequency trading accounts? How many $LIT does 1 point equal?
Answer: Manual high-frequency trading is normal trading and will not result in a witching event. The announcement regarding how many $LIT corresponds to 1 point will come later.
3. What benefits will $LIT holders have in the future? Will Lighter have a buyback plan?
Answer: Our interviews are also aimed at asking everyone what specific benefits they hope to see in the future. We will fully empower the tokens. It is difficult to answer the question about the buyback plan right now; there will be relevant announcements later.
4. What are the future plans after the TGE?
Answer: We will launch S3 to continue incentivizing users, aim to implement a unified margin mechanism in Q1, and also launch a mobile app. Additionally, we will enter the prediction market. However, due to the significant workload, the timeline is uncertain, but we aim to complete it within next year.

5. I know you plan not to launch on CEX immediately; what if they force it?
Answer: They will not be able to withdraw.
Rhythm BlockBeats Note: This seems to imply that even if CEX forcibly lists it, users will not be able to withdraw the coins to sell on the exchange, thus preventing a dump.

6. How does Lighter allocate transaction fee income?
Answer: $LIT is neither equity nor a dividend-type token. Therefore, the transaction fees generated by the protocol will not be used to distribute dividends or payouts to investors but will be reinvested back into the protocol itself for ecosystem expansion, product growth, and, most importantly, token buybacks.
7. What is the allocation model for airdrop shares and token economics?
Answer: The specific details of the Tokenomics have not been fully disclosed yet, but the major allocation framework has been determined: the first round of airdrops will release 25% of the total supply, and another 25% will be reserved for future airdrop arrangements. All investors will follow a three-year vesting schedule.
8. It has been mentioned in the community that Justin Sun has provided a lot of liquidity for Lighter; how many points does he have?
Answer: Justin Sun held over 10,000 points early on through multiple wallets. After that, he proactively contacted the team to add more liquidity for LLP, all in accordance with the original point acquisition rules on-chain.
9. What preparations have been made on the regulatory front?
Answer: Founder Vlad has traveled to Washington multiple times for direct communication with regulatory agencies, including Senator Tim Scott and members of the President's Digital Asset Working Group. Lighter has been proactively advancing compliance and regulatory framework construction ahead of the TGE.
Additionally, Vlad has communicated with the Robinhood team regarding tokenized stocks.
10. 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 that it has undergone a certain level of institutional due diligence.
11. Are there any other unknown reward mechanisms?
Answer: There are no special incentives based on identity or role, nor are there hidden reward plans, and there are no "play styles" allocated behind the scenes.
