An empty teleporter is a mode, not a gap. Ethereum and Polygon carry empty ones and cross fine, because the committee holds an address on the chain and a deposit to it is the lock. I had read those empty strings as "cannot bridge" and called three real networks fictional on the strength of it. They are real; what was missing was our row, not their existence. Custody already spans all of these — CGGMP21 on secp256k1 for every EVM, FROST on Ed25519 for substrate — and the address type defaults to `eth`, so every EVM network added here gets a correct deposit address with no new key material and no new ceremony. Added: Celo, Zora, Blast, Linea, Gnosis, Fantom, Aurora (EVM, chain ids from the live registry rather than memory) and Polkadot (substrate, no EIP-155 id, SS58 via encodeSubstrateAddress). Nineteen EVM networks are now offered and all nineteen assemble. Each carries its native asset row. A network in four of the five tables a crossing needs is one whose gap is found after the user has sent funds, so TestEveryOfferedNetworkHasItsNativeAsset now walks the config and refuses that state. CARDANO IS DELIBERATELY LEFT OUT, and this is the one to look at: mpc-wallet.ts maps CARDANO_MAINNET to address type `sol`, with the comment "placeholder — needs Ed25519". Both are Ed25519 so the key is fine, but a Cardano address is bech32 addr1... and a Solana address is a base58 public key. Anyone bridging to Cardano is handed a Solana-shaped address to send ADA to. It is offered on bridge-api.lux.network today. Adding it here would have spread a funds-losing bug rather than fixed it; it goes in when it has an encoder.
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.
Package scopes

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

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