PANews reported on October 16th that according to crypto influencer @satoshiheist, Lighter CEO Vladimir Novakovski revealed in a Russian interview that optional two-factor authentication for withdrawals is on the development roadmap. Spot trading will launch in late October or early November, initially with ETH and BTC (possibly including WBTC), followed by Meme coins and partner tokens, with zero or very low fees. The specific timeline is yet to be announced. Regarding feature development, cross-margin functionality will be released before the end of the year, supporting spot trading as collateral for perpetual contracts. EVM "sidecar" and smart contract extensions will be launched early next year. RWA derivatives will launch before the end of the year, options will launch next year, and dark pool trading will be scheduled later in the year. The ecosystem will be developed on the Ethereum architecture. Regarding the token economics model, 25%-30% of tokens will be used for airdrops of points in the first and second seasons, with a total community allocation of 50% (the remainder will be used for future airdrops, partnerships, and funded projects). Season 2 activities will continue until around the TGE, with funding resuming every Friday. The token will have a buyback and multiple uses, and governance rights will be available approximately two years from now. The platform has implemented measures to prevent fraudulent trading, and high-frequency traders may be forced to pay a fee. Novakovski predicts that the market will be volatile for 1-2 weeks and recommends strengthening risk management.PANews reported on October 16th that according to crypto influencer @satoshiheist, Lighter CEO Vladimir Novakovski revealed in a Russian interview that optional two-factor authentication for withdrawals is on the development roadmap.
