Lighter has rolled out a new requirement making LIT token staking mandatory for users seeking to access its liquidity pools. This protocol-level change represents a strategic shift in how the platform manages capital allocation and incentivizes long-term participation in the ecosystem. The move ties user participation directly to staking commitment, which could reshape liquidity provider dynamics across the platform.

NGL, this wave of forced staking is a bit showy. They want to harvest profits while also trying to keep users. Smart as it is, it feels like it might drive people away.

Must you stake LIT to use the liquidity pool? This is just a trick of locking funds; it sounds noble but in reality, it is harvesting the freedom of liquidity providers.
