curl -H "X-API-Key: $OXARCHIVE_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.0xarchive.io/v1/lighter/trades/BTC?start=2025-01-17T00:00:00Z&end=2025-01-18T00:00:00Z&limit=2"

Lighter rows carry the account index of each side and whether it was the maker. Amberdata's Hyperliquid changelog, order book notice and pricing page list no Lighter data. Requests older than the last 30 days need the Build plan.
