zeekayandHanzo Dev 645aef166f zkvm: a witness is exactly as long as the key's circuit says
A verifying key holds one K point per public input plus a constant term, so it
states how many inputs the circuit it was made for takes. The witness arrives
with the transaction, so a peer picks its length, and only the upper end was
checked. Too few is quieter and no better: the linear combination runs over the
witness, so a short one leaves the trailing K points out and judges the proof
against a smaller statement than the circuit was compiled for.

The count is now exactly what the key states. That is read off the key, not
assumed about the circuit β€” how many inputs a circuit takes is the key's to say,
while what the trailing ones MEAN still needs whoever owns the circuit. They
remain bound in count and unbound in value.

πŸͺ€ The test named for reaching the pairing kept passing after this change while
no longer reaching it: it built a key stating three inputs, supplied two, and
asserted only that the error said "verification failed" β€” which the new refusal
also says. Its key now states the two it supplies, and it asserts the pairing's
own verdict, so it fails if anything in front of the arithmetic answers first.

chains

Lux Chains

Independent VM plugin binaries for the Lux Network.

Each directory builds to a standalone binary that the Lux node loads as a plugin via --plugin-dir.

Build

make            # build all VMs
make evm        # build one VM
make test       # test all

Install

lpm install evm
lpm install dexvm

Or copy binaries to ~/.lux/plugins/<vmid>.

VMs

One row per directory in this repo. make derives its target list from the directory listing, so a VM that has no directory here has no binary β€” the table below and ls can never disagree.

Live means the VM has a chain registered on Lux mainnet 96369 (platform.getBlockchains).

VM Chain Live on 96369 Purpose
evm C-Chain βœ… EVM smart contracts
dexvm D-Chain βœ… Decentralized exchange
aivm A-Chain βœ… AI/ML inference
bridgevm B-Chain βœ… Cross-chain bridge β€” also owns all cross-chain messaging / relay / teleport (LP-6000); there is no separate teleportvm
graphvm G-Chain βœ… GraphQL data layer
keyvm K-Chain βœ… Key management
quantumvm Q-Chain βœ… Post-quantum consensus signing (Pulsar)
zkvm Z-Chain βœ… Groth16 over BLS12-381 (rolls N Γ— ML-DSA-65 sigs into 192-byte proof)
identityvm I-Chain ❌ built, not deployed Decentralized identity
oraclevm O-Chain ❌ built, not deployed Oracle/off-chain data
relayvm R-Chain ❌ built, not deployed Cross-chain relay
mpcvm M-Chain ❌ built, not deployed MPC ceremonies (CGGMP21, FROST, Pulsar-general) β€” bridge custody for external wallets (LP-7100)
schain S-Chain ❌ built, not deployed S3-style object storage (on-chain metadata / off-chain blob). Declares its own VMID = ids.ID{'s','c','h','a','i','n'} in schain/factory.go and is not in the canonical luxfi/constants VM-ID registry

P-Chain (platformvm) and X-Chain (xvm) are in-process core VMs registered by luxfi/node, not plugins built here. Together with the eight βœ… rows above they are the ten chains live on 96369.

Not in this repo

Name Status
teleportvm / T-Chain Removed. LP-134 dissolves T-Chain with zero remainder: threshold signing β†’ M-Chain, FHE β†’ F-Chain, cross-chain messaging/teleport β†’ B-Chain (bridgevm). LP-5013 and LP-7330 are deprecated by LP-134; see LP-7050 for the migration map. No teleportvm VM ID exists in luxfi/constants.
servicenodevm Never existed. The service-node registry was never built under this name; the S-Chain directory here is schain/ and is object storage, not a registry.
fhevm / F-Chain Unbuilt. luxfi/constants reserves FHEVMID = {'f','h','e','v','m'} and luxfi/node/node/vms.go lists it in OptionalVMs as a plugin named fhevm, so luxd will scan --plugin-dir for it β€” but there is no fhevm/ directory in this repo and no plugin binary anywhere, so that scan always comes up empty. The FHE runtime library lives at mpcvm/fhe/; it is a package inside mpcvm, not a standalone chain. F-Chain is a spec (LP-8200, LP-167) with no shipping VM.
