Lighter's Core exchange introduced 15-minute binary options contracts tied to Bitcoin and Ether prices, allowing traders to bet on short-term price movements with fixed payouts in USDC. Traders choose whether prices will go up or down within each 15-minute window, with winning contracts paying 1 USDC and losing contracts paying nothing. These contracts require full funding in USDC, have no leverage or liquidation risks, and support market and limit orders. The platform is not available to U.S. users, and Lighter plans to expand its options offerings beyond these binary contracts in the future.
