Lighter Perp DEX: Price Up 20% in recent times, But Are Usage Metrics Following?

LIT is the token associated with Lighter, a perp DEX in the DeFi derivatives space.

Over the past week, $LIT has increased by roughly 20%, briefly reaching around $1.46. The price move has come alongside increased attention on the protocol, but the more relevant question from a DeFi perspective is whether underlying usage metrics are also improving.

Lighter has raised approximately $89M and operates in the perp DEX sector, competing with other DeFi derivatives platforms focused on onchain perpetual futures trading, liquidity, and execution.

Recent attention includes reports of Vitalik Buterin mentioning Lighter in a fireside chat, as well as integration by Tealstreet, which expanded access for traders. There has also been discussion around a planned SpaceX pre-IPO perps market, which adds a speculative narrative layer.

On the trading side, volume on cexs such as Bit get has increased during the same period, though it is unclear how much of this reflects sustained demand versus short-term momentum.

From a DeFi perspective, key metrics to watch are sustained volume, open interest, liquidity depth, and user retention rather than short-term price movement.

The main question is whether Lighter can maintain and grow real usage in the perp DEX market over time.

Nvidia starts shipping Vera CPUs to OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceX AI right before earnings

Nvidia has begun shipping its new Vera AI CPUs to OpenAI, Anthropic, Oracle, and SpaceX’s AI group. These CPUs are built to work alongside Nvidia’s GPUs in the Vera Rubin platform, aimed at larger AI training and inference workloads.

The timing is feels ("hmm") planned because Nvidia reports earnings after the bell tomorrow. It gives a concrete signal that some of the biggest AI developers are taking delivery of the next piece of Nvidia’s hardware stack. By offering CPUs that pair directly with their own GPUs and networking,

For NVDA, this adds to the picture of steady demand from the largest players. The stock has traded in a wide range lately as yields moved and the broader market pulled back. I’ve been following the buildup with getclaw, and I’ve already pulled out some funds that I want to rotate into futures around these AI-related headlines.

It also puts some focus on competitors. Companies like AMD and INTC have been pushing their own AI hardware, and moves like this show how Nvidia is trying to close off parts of the stack.

Curious what others are making of it. Does the pre-earnings shipment change anything in how you’re looking at NVDA, or does it feel like business as usual?

Markets are jittery as the global oil crisis bleeds into a global debt selloff, while Trump weighs new military options on Iran

With talks between the US and Iran continuing to stall, President Trump is reportedly weighing military options, raising fresh concerns over potential disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. Could such developments fuel speculation that crude oil will surge toward $150 per barrel as tensions continue to escalate?

What does this mean for traders especially with Bitget CFDs flexible exposure to oil price movements?

Has geopolitical uncertainty become part of trade analysis considering traders are actively monitoring it?

$Hype surge as Circle and Coinbase invest in Hyperliquid ecosystem

Analysts are watching closely as Coinbase and Circle deepen ties with Hyperliquid, potentially reshaping stablecoin economics on one of DeFi’s top perpetuals platforms. With USDC reserves on Hyperliquid now topping $5 billion, the integration makes Coinbase the official treasury deployer under the Aligned Quote Asset framework. This channels the vast majority of reserve yields, potentially tens to hundreds of millions annually—back into the ecosystem instead of solely to the issuers.

Although this creates powerful alignment: rising user activity and liquidity now indirectly support the protocol by funding buybacks, incentives, and growth. Idle stablecoin balances are turning into a real revenue engine for the Hyperliquid ecosystem.

Still, key questions remain. Will this partnership increase more usecase to $HYPE?, what could be the longterm impact of such partnership? is this surge sustainable? With Bitget having the highest Hype spot trading volume, it is good to monitor the volatility there and see how this narrative plays out

Are GetClaw AI Trading Real and do you trust such analysis?

I came across this post on X from a trader reflecting on the last GetClaw competition, and it got me thinking about what these AI trading contests are really like when dozens of people are testing their strategies (and their prompting skills) against each other. GetClaw is Bitget’s autonomous AI trading agent. You tell it your strategy in plain language, and it’s supposed to handle market monitoring, analysis, entries, exits, and risk on its own dedicated sub-account.

I don't know if i am being skeptical but do people actually use trading agent or AI for trading? like do you rely on it analysis and jump on the trade or you only use it as a tool after understanding market violatility and have a proven trading set-up?I saw many testomonial concerning this Getclaw trading competition and how many are waiting for the next phase but i wonder if people actually consider the risk on depending on AI?

How much can you actually trust the analysis and execution from something like this in live markets? If you’ve tried GetClaw or joined a similar round, I’d love to hear honest takes. Does it feel real and reliable to you, or more like a fancy assistant that still needs heavy oversight? What surprised you, good or bad and would you trust it with serious capital?

Trump posted on Truth Social Sunday that the US would begin guiding neutral ships out of the Strait of Hormuz on Monday morning as a humanitarian step for vessels and crews that have been stranded for weeks. Oil prices eased the next day, with Brent crude falling about $1.83 to around $106.34 and WTI down roughly $1.72 to near $100.22, still well above $100 without any broader ceasefire in place.

Shares of big oil producers like ExxonMobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX) moved lower alongside the softer crude prices. Some tanker and shipping names saw attention on hopes that even limited US involvement could start unclogging the waterway that handles roughly 20% of global oil and LNG flows. South Korean operator HMM (011200.KS) was already dealing with a vessel fire from the recent flare-up in the area.

The situation remains tense and fast-moving, with no full deal yet and output adjustments from OPEC+ still in play. Curious how others are looking at this, adding to producers on the dip, watching shipping exposure, or waiting for clearer signals from both sides?

UAE leaving OPEC could shake up the oil market a lot. Right now, oil is already strong and looking bullish, meaning buyers are in control. Price is around 107, and the war risk is adding extra fear into the market, which usually pushes prices higher.

On my side, I’m watching this closely on BitgetCFD, hoping to leverage their 500x lev into profits & trying to catch the momentum move if it continues. With oil this volatile, even small news can cause big swings, so I’m focusing on short-term direction and price action around these levels.

Long term, this kind of situation could make oil even more unstable. At first we may see spikes from conflict risk, and later sharp moves depending on supply changes if UAE actually increases output outside OPEC rules. Either way, volatility is high, so risk management is key.

I read an analysis that crude oil could surpass $120 this week as there is no progress with the US-Iran talks. This morning i noticed Oil 4H TF was looking Bullish with short term pullbacks so i decide to take a little risk which paid off but do you think $120 is possible?
