TREE NEWS update: Bitwise has launched the first exchange-traded product tied to Lighter, giving European investors brokerage access to the LIT token. The product expands Bitwise’s lineup of ETPs linked to decentralized derivatives platforms, and lands amid rivalry between Lighter and Hyperliquid.
Bitwise Launches First Lighter ETP in Europe, Tracking LIT Token
The significance lies less in the token itself than in the distribution channel: wrapping a decentralized derivatives venue's token into a European ETP format lets brokerage accounts gain exposure without touching the underlying protocol directly. That matters for the competitive positioning of Lighter against Hyperliquid, since product availability can shape which venue captures mainstream flows. The open question is whether this ETP structure becomes a template other platforms pursue, or remains a one-off.
