Decentralized perpetual futures exchange Lighter has launched an EVM development network built in partnership with Axiom, according to the company. The OpenVM-based EVM-equivalent rollup runs in parallel with Lighter Core and allows developers to deploy smart contracts using tools such as Foundry and Hardhat.
Through the network, developers can query account, balance, position, order, and market data on Lighter Core, while also creating, modifying, and canceling orders directly through smart contracts. Lighter plans to gradually expand access to the network and open it to all developers within the next few weeks.
