Operators were selected, bonded, committed and revealed, and then nothing paid them. Settle — which tallies reveals, credits the honest majority, slashes withholders and folds a receipt into the root — ran only from the demonstration driver. The production block path imported intents, created tasks, and never gave any of them a verdict, so a task sat past its reveal deadline forever and the work done for it was credited to nobody. Open mining rests on the opposite: an operator that did the work is paid without anyone asking on its behalf. Every block now settles the tasks whose reveal window has closed. The set is a function of the state and the height alone, which is what lets a follower reach the same verdicts without being told: it applies the block's imports, runs the same pass at the same height, and compares receipt roots. A disagreement about who was paid changes the root, and verifyImported already refuses that — so this needs nothing recorded in the block. Settling requires enumerating tasks and engine state is keyed by slot hash with nothing to iterate, so tasks awaiting a verdict are held in an array in state: appended at creation, removed on reaching one. It holds only what is open, so a block's work is bounded by the tasks still outstanding rather than by everything the chain has ever done. An entry that cannot settle is dropped rather than retried, since leaving it would make every later block re-attempt the same refusal. The test drives the real lifecycle and then does nothing but produce blocks: it fails without this, reporting a task past its deadline with the work unpaid. Registration was already open by default; its comment now says so, and the permissioned variants are described as deployment policy. Co-authored-by: Hanzo Dev <[email protected]>
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 — 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 | ✅ | EVM smart contracts |
| dexvm | D-Chain | ✅ | Decentralized exchange |
| aivm | A-Chain | ✅ | AI/ML inference |
| bridgevm | B-Chain | ✅ | Cross-chain bridge — also owns all cross-chain messaging / relay / teleport (LP-6000); there is no separate teleportvm |
| graphvm | G-Chain | ✅ | GraphQL data layer |
| keyvm | K-Chain | ✅ | Key management |
| quantumvm | Q-Chain | ✅ | Post-quantum consensus signing (Pulsar) |
| zkvm | Z-Chain | ✅ | Groth16 over BLS12-381 (rolls N × 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) — 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 ✅ 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 → M-Chain, FHE → F-Chain, cross-chain messaging/teleport → 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 — 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. |
