Lighter is a fully-verifiable decentralized exchange built as a zero-knowledge rollup on Ethereum, delivering high-frequency trading performance with onchain security and composability. Its custom ZK circuits prove every operation — including order matching and liquidations — with millisecond latency and the ability to process tens of thousands of orders per second. The optimized matching engine enables zero fees for retail traders and highly competitive pricing for high-frequency strategies, while deposits, withdrawals and proofs are verified publicly on Ethereum. Lighter's mainnet is live, offering low-cost, low-latency perpetual trading backed by transparent, cryptographically-secured settlement.
Morpho Blue is a minimal peer‑to‑peer lending primitive where anyone can deploy an isolated market smart contract referencing an external Chainlink price feed. Rates dynamically converge toward Compound V3 curves but settle peer‑to‑peer, which removes spread capture by the protocol and routes it to lenders and borrowers. The entire factory is less than 500 lines of Solidity and was formally verified by Certora.
