zeekay a20d44bf52 zkvm: decoding a proof in order to refuse it is not a verifier
PLONK's verification equation was never written: verifyPLONKPairing
refused every proof unconditionally, and above it sat some 200 lines
decoding the proof and the key — exact sizes, subgroup checks, points at
infinity — whose result that refusal discarded. The refusal is the whole
of what the path does, so it is now the whole of what it says.

The aggregate block proof went the same way. VerifyBlockProof re-verified
the very transactions Verify had verified one line above, so it could
only ever agree with them; nothing built a block carrying one; and the
field stood on the wire and in the block id where a reader would take an
aggregate guarantee to be.

Two more second implementations: Verify type-asserted its parent to
*Block after GetBlock had already refused anything that is not one, and
Shutdown asked whether its logger was disabled before logging, which is
what a logger decides.

Coverage 95.5% -> 99.1%. What is left cannot be reached: four bn254.Pair
error returns on one-element slices, two IsInSubGroup refusals on a curve
whose G1 cofactor is 1 and whose Unmarshal already checks G2, and three
boot gates — a store opened through a versiondb view, and fee.Validate on
the floor chain.Floor returns.

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

make's target list is named in the Makefile, and every name in it is a directory here that ships a plugin entrypoint (<vm>/cmd/plugin, or evm/main.go). dexvm/ is the exception in the table below: it is a library the EVM plugin embeds — it has no entrypoint of its own, so make builds no dexvm binary. The other directories here (fee/, ownership/, internal/, cmd/) are libraries and a tool, and are not VMs.

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)
fhevm F-Chain ❌ built, not deployed Confidential compute (LP-8200): ciphertext handles, access permits, threshold decryption. Records the public coordinates of encrypted values and holds none of the encrypted part — no ciphertext body, no FHE key, no share. Wraps the FHE runtime at mpcvm/fhe/
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.

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.

Plugin filenames

luxd resolves a CreateChainTx's vmID to an implementation by looking for a file of that name in --plugin-dir, so a plugin installed under any other name is invisible and its chain silently never starts. The filename is the CB58 of the vmID — n6sSsSfbpQBrU9sY4R29U6z8VrmnTo2CntW6da4rRS7qmnGdv for fhevm, qCURact1n41FcoNBch8iMVBwc9AWie48D118ZNJ5tBdWrvryS for mpcvm. Each VM pins its own in a test, because a vmID cannot change once a chain has been created with it.
