Lighter.xyz Full-Depth Order Book Data on 0xArchive

Lighter Is Its Own Venue API

0xArchive treats Lighter.xyz as its own top-level venue, not a Hyperliquid add-on. Lighter routes live under /v1/lighter/*, so Lighter symbols, depth semantics, and exports stay separate from Hyperliquid core, Spot, HIP-3, and HIP-4. If you already use our Hyperliquid routes the shape is familiar; only the namespace changes.

What's covered

  • Order books - L2 price-level depth and L3 individual-order depth, tick-level.
  • Trades - complete, gapless public route history from 2025-08-27; more than 1.8 billion fills.
  • Funding and open interest - full time-series market state.
  • Candles - OHLCV history at supported intervals.
  • Replay and exports - WebSocket replay and Data Catalog Parquet files.

Lighter coverage runs across 200+ markets, with trade history available from August 2025 and first public route rows on 2025-08-27. L3 order-level history starts March 2026; live counts are on the status page.

Why a separate venue

Lighter gives cross-venue desks a second 24/7 book to test against Hyperliquid. Keep it in its own route family when you compare depth, trades, funding, or replay windows across the two venues, so a Lighter L3 route never gets mistaken for a Hyperliquid L4 one.

Run one route

Confirm auth and the envelope on one bounded request, then widen the window:

  • 10s - 10 second intervals
  • 1s - 1 second intervals
  • tick - raw checkpoint plus deltas
