zeekay de41e5d072 papers: replace fabricated DEX perf claims with measured numbers; document decomplected architecture
Retract the fabricated '581M/597ns / 100M+/s / 434M GPU / planet-scale' headline (a
time.Sleep sim + x40 fudge that measured nothing) across the corpus. Flagship lux-lightspeed-dex
rewritten (decomplected d-chain engine / dexvm atomic proxy / Go wrapper / 0x9010 CLOB facade;
measured GB10 104-126M & M4 Max ~250M fills/s byte-parity-gated; Knuth-D division lever; Block-STM
settlement; P3Q->starkfri rollup to Z-Chain). Technical papers (precompile-engineering, gpu-crypto-stack,
evmgpu-benchmark, p3q-corona, smart-order-routing, fhe-mpc-hybrid) carry the measured impl + cross-ref
the flagship. >1B/s framed honestly as N-node aggregation, never single-GPU. All compile.

\section{Introduction}
The 2022 LX whitepaper described a social trading DEX with the
following thesis: centralized exchanges are single points of failure
(citing MtGox, Bitfinex, Coincheck); decentralized alternatives
at the time (EtherDelta, 0x Protocol) suffered from latency, poor
UX, and front-running. LX proposed to solve both with a non-custodial,
zero-knowledge encrypted orderbook on a high-throughput L1.
Four years later, the Lux Network ships three exchange-layer
components that realize this vision:
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{llr}
\toprule
\textbf{Component} & \textbf{Repo} & \textbf{Throughput} \\
\midrule
Lux DEX (native orderbook) & \texttt{luxfi/dex} & 104--250M fills/s (GPU) \\
Lux CEX (compliance gateway) & \texttt{luxfi/cex} & FIX 4.4 + REST + WS + ZAP \\
Lux Broker (16-venue SOR) & \texttt{luxfi/broker} & Smart order routing \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
