PANews reported on December 28th that Lighter founder and CEO Vladimir Novakovski responded to the Sybil screening issue in a Twitter Space interview, stating: "We have an appeal mechanism for Sybil screening, but so far, the number of appeals is less than we expected. If users feel the algorithm is unfair to them, they are welcome to fill out the appeal form on Discord. We will not disclose the specific details of the algorithm because we do not want it to be targeted for optimization. Our position is very clear: the value will ultimately be deposited in the token, and all investors participate under this premise. We adhere to one principle: the token will be the core alignment mechanism for all stakeholders—early users, the team, and investors are all in the same boat. There will be no dual-track structure where the token has one set of value logic and equity has another; everything will revolve around the token."
