0xArchive serves Lighter as a separate venue under /v1/lighter/*. Coverage includes trades, funding, and open interest from August 2025, tick-level order books from January 2026, and L3 order-level depth from March 2026, across more than 200 markets, continuous to the current hour. Lighter is not part of the Hyperliquid namespace. Keep Lighter symbols and routes separate from Hyperliquid core, Spot, HIP-3, and HIP-4.

What History Is Available

Lighter trade history begins August 2025; order-level (L3) detail begins March 2026. Hold one symbol and one UTC window constant on the first pull, then widen.

​
Implementation Pattern

Start with one Lighter symbol such as BTC, one route, and a small window. Check coverage and freshness before the output feeds a backtest, report, alert, or model. If a coding agent writes the client, give it OpenAPI plus Lighter REST so it keeps Lighter routes separate from Hyperliquid.

​
Next Step

Open Lighter REST, then use Data quality before widening to more markets.
