You can clearly spot Lighter points in the announcement video.

And honestly, they seem to be cooking a lot behind the scenes. If you’re using Arcus, your Lighter volume also counts there, which makes me think"

The accompanying text explains that Sherwood will enable agents to run perpetuals on Lighter, an order-book perp DEX, with a non-custodial model that prevents agents from misappropriating user funds.

This could mean Lighter is bringing perp trading directly to the wallet, or maybe something completely different.

Honestly, I can’t even figure out what they’re cooking this time.

Let’s just wait and see."

> **Video Content:** The video shows a static image of a raccoon standing upright with its paws pressed together in a prayer-like or pleading gesture, set against a rocky gray background. There is no movement or scene progression between the two frames—the raccoon remains in the same pose throughout, giving the appearance of begging or requesting something. No on-screen text, tickers, or numbers are visible in the video itself.

The

Tomorrow should be interesting."
