zeekayandHanzo Dev fdf55575b2 zkvm: a transaction ID that commits to the transaction
ComputeID hashed the type, version, nullifiers, commitments, proof, fee and
expiry — and nothing else. The transparent inputs and outputs were absent, so
who is paid and how much could be changed without changing the transaction's
identity. Consensus decides between blocks by ID and the mempool keys on it, so
that is a payee an attacker can rewrite for free; the block-level test failed for
the same reason one level up.

The variable-length fields were also concatenated with nothing between them,
which lets a byte move from the end of one field into the start of the next
without the hash noticing — ["ab","c"] and ["a","bc"] are the same bytes. Every
field now carries its length and every list its count, so one preimage means one
transaction. The memo and the remaining shielded fields are covered too, since a
field that is not hashed is a field that can be changed.

The signature stays out: it is made over this value, so including it would be
circular and would let a second valid signature give a different identity to a
transaction moving the same value.

Identities change, which is a hard fork. Z-Chain has produced no blocks — until
the WaitForEvent fix it could not — so there is nothing to migrate.

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 — 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.
