--------------------------------------------------

L2BEAT confirmed that Lighter's emergency withdrawal mechanism works after independently regenerating and verifying all of the rollup's ZK circuits. The verification covers Lighter's Desert mode, a failsafe that lets users prove their L2 account state and exit directly to Ethereum mainnet if the sequencer goes offline or misbehaves.
