BRIDGE_API_HOST fell back to https://bridge-api.lux.network. That is a different server — the older Express backend — and it serves a different set of networks. So an unset environment variable moved every user onto another backend, silently. Measured rather than assumed. bridge-api offers 22 networks, this origin offers 13, and the nine extra are not nine extra capabilities: Celo, Zora, Blast, Linea real teleporter and vault. Genuinely missing from this origin's config. Gnosis, Fantom, Aurora teleporter and vault are EMPTY STRINGS. Offered to users and cannot bridge. Cardano, Polkadot no contract entry at all. Three of those nine are the Arbitrum bug again: a chain a user can select, send funds to, and then discover has nowhere to go. A default is not the place to change which backend answers. Same origin is the one answer that cannot be wrong — whatever serves the page serves its API — and it removes the whole class rather than correcting the hostname. The end state is neither server. B-Chain is the bridge, and the SDK already has BridgeConfig.rpc to reach it. Today B-Chain answers a canned stub — identical bytes for a real method, a nonsense method, or an empty body — so it is not yet somewhere to point. The comment says that instead of implying the switch is available. Still to do, and not done here: the four real networks belong in this origin's config, and the three fictional ones should stop being advertised anywhere.
Lux Bridge
Bridge monorepo for Lux Network — a decentralized cross-chain bridge using Multi-Party Computation (MPC) for secure asset transfers.
Embed the bridge SDK
To embed bridge.lux.network in another app, install @luxfi/bridge:
pnpm add @luxfi/bridge react react-dom
import { mountBridge } from '@luxfi/bridge'
mountBridge({
config: {
apiHost: 'https://api.bridge.lux.network',
env: 'mainnet',
brand: { name: 'Lux Bridge', primaryColor: '#0066ff' },
},
})
@luxfi/bridge is the only package consumers import. All @luxbridge/*
packages are internal workspace deps and are never published.

One canonical SDK name. One mount function. One config shape.
Prerequisites
- Node.js v20+
- pnpm v9.15.0+
- Go 1.22+ (for MPC tools)
- Docker (for infrastructure services)
Quick Start
1. Install Dependencies
# Install pnpm if needed
npm install -g pnpm
# Install project dependencies
pnpm install
# Install MPC tools via Go
make install-mpc
2. Start Infrastructure
# Start infrastructure services (Lux ID, KMS, databases, etc.)
make up
This starts:
- Lux ID (Casdoor) - Port 8000 - Unified authentication
- KMS (Vault) - Port 8200 - Key management
- NATS - Port 4223 - Messaging
- Consul - Port 8501 - Service discovery
- PostgreSQL - Port 5433 - Bridge database
- Lux ID DB - Port 5434 - Auth database
3. Start MPC Network
# Start 3-node MPC network
make start-mpc-nodes
This runs MPC nodes on:
- Node 0: HTTP 6000, gRPC 9090
- Node 1: HTTP 6001, gRPC 9091
- Node 2: HTTP 6002, gRPC 9092
4. Start Application Services
In separate terminals:
# Terminal 1: Bridge API Server
cd app/server && pnpm dev
# Terminal 2: Bridge UI
cd app/bridge && pnpm dev
5. Access Services
- Bridge UI: http://localhost:3001
- Bridge API: http://localhost:5000
- Lux ID Admin: http://localhost:8000
- Consul UI: http://localhost:8501

m-chain (public MPC, 2-of-3 threshold)
+ optional private cluster (treasury fees)
+ optional layered cosigners (Utila / Fireblocks)
See docs/LLM.md for the full topology, MPC protocol list
(cggmp21, frost, bls, doerner, pulsar, corona, magnetar),
layered-cosigner pattern, and explorer-migration plan.
Key Features
- MPC Security: 2-of-3 threshold signatures (also PQ-safe lattice variants)
- Layered cosigners (since SDK v1.0.3): optional Utila / Fireblocks cosign on top of native MPC for institutional flows
- Multi-Chain: Support for EVM and non-EVM chains
- Unified Auth: Lux ID (Casdoor) integration
- Key Management: Secure key storage in KMS
- Service Discovery: Consul for dynamic configuration
Development
# Run tests
pnpm test
# Check MPC status
lux-mpc-cli status --url http://localhost:6000
# View logs
tail -f logs/mpc-node-0.log
# Stop services
make stop-mpc-nodes # Stop MPC
make down # Stop infrastructure

Tips
Since "pnpm" is a finger twister, many people alias it to "pn". For example, with bash, put alias pn='pnpm' in .bashrc.
