Lighter launches EVM devnet built with Axiom

  • —Lighter EVM is an EVM-equivalent rollup on OpenVM, built with Axiom
  • —Lighter EVM and Lighter Core settle to Ethereum via a single ZK proof
  • —Developers can deploy using Foundry, Hardhat, Viem and Ethers
  • —Devnet access is opening in phases over the coming weeks
Why it matters: The EVM and ZK settlement integration broadens Lighter's capabilities and could intensify competition among perp DEXs.
