Public, permissively-licensed C/C++ build dependencies for the Lux Network's Go node and reference crypto — vendored upstreams and thin glue. Everything in this org is BSD/MIT/Apache/upstream, so the Lux node and crypto build and run on the pure-Go path with no license required.
| Layer | Repos | License | Build |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chain + crypto (reference) | luxfi/node, luxfi/crypto, luxfi/accel |
BSD-3 / permissive | pure-Go, CGO_ENABLED=0, no license |
| C build deps (this org) | blst, pqclean, intx, evmc, evmmax, ed25519-donna, blake3-reference, grpc, http, session, zap-cpp-core |
permissive / upstream | optional CGO_ENABLED=1 |
| GPU acceleration | proprietary — commercial license | proprietary | prebuilt binary plugins |
The pure-Go chain runs with no C++ or GPU. GPU acceleration is an optional, licensed accelerator that loads at runtime on supported hardware.
Lux ships GPU-optimized implementations across the entire stack:
| Component | What's accelerated |
|---|---|
| EVM (C-Chain) | GPU Block-STM parallel execution; GPU precompiles (BN254, KZG, modexp, secp256k1 ecrecover) |
| DEX | GPU order-book matching engine + AMM / CLOB |
| FHE | GPU TFHE bootstrapping (NTT-fused) — portable across NVIDIA, AMD, and Apple |
| Crypto | GPU batch BLS12-381, ML-DSA, ML-KEM, SLH-DSA, Poseidon2, MSM, Keccak |
| All chains | GPU-accelerated X / P / C / M-Chain, Bridge, and AI VMs |
Backends: Metal (Apple Silicon) · CUDA (NVIDIA) · Vulkan (cross-vendor) · WebGPU/WGSL (portable) · HIP (AMD/ROCm). One portable kernel set, native per-platform — a single SPIR-V binary spans NVIDIA, AMD, and Apple.
Performance figures, detailed benchmarks, and access to the accelerated builds are provided under commercial license. Contact licensing@lux.network — access is granted upon licensing.
