On Lighter, CXMT is a synthetic perpetual market with its own order book. Because each venue quotes the contract independently, Lighter's mark price, funding rate and open interest can differ from the same company's contract on another venue.
CXMT is listed as a Lighter synthetic perpetual market. Prices track traditional-asset exposure synthetically and do not represent ownership of the underlying shares, ETFs, commodities, or cash instruments. Educational market data only — not investment advice.
