Lighter Opens EVM Devnet to Connect Smart Contracts With Trading Engine

Lighter and Axiom opened the Lighter EVM devnet on Friday, Oct. 16, giving developers a way to build Ethereum-compatible smart contracts that interact with Lighter Core, the platform’s order-matching system. The test network is designed to connect contract logic with Lighter’s trading data and order functions. Contracts can read Core account, balance, position, order and market data. They can also place, modify and cancel Core orders through asynchronous requests, which execute in seconds. The EVM produces blocks every second, but that interval describes block production; it does not establish how quickly an order will be filled.
