Bitlight (LIGHT) Surges Over 400% in 24 Hours Driven by Bitcoin DeFi and Exchange Listings

LIGHT surged over 400% in 24 hours, trading near $2.20-$2.30, far outperforming the market. The rally is fueled by Bitcoin DeFi hype, RGB-Lightning Network integration, technical breakouts of key resistance, and new listings on KuCoin, Bitget, and WEEX. Limited circulating supply amplifies volatility; a drop below $1.48 could trigger deep correction.
