# LUMENYX
---
## A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System
---
### Abstract
A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash with fixed supply and smart contracts. The network uses proof-of-work consensus with 2.5 second blocks. Total supply is limited to 21,000,000 LUMENYX (ticker: LUMO) with a halving emission schedule. No governance, no team allocation, no venture capital.
---
### Quick Start
**Requirements:**
- Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, or similar)
- x86_64 processor with AES-NI & PCLMUL (Intel 2010+, AMD 2011+)
- **4 GB RAM** for mining (RX-LX algorithm, fast mode)
- 1 GB RAM minimum for sync-only nodes
**One command to start:**
```bash
curl -sL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lumenyx-chain/lumenyx/main/lumenyx-setup.sh" -o lumenyx-setup.sh && chmod +x lumenyx-setup.sh && ./lumenyx-setup.sh
```
The script will:
- Download the binary
- Generate your wallet (save the seed phrase!)
- Start mining automatically
- Auto-update when new versions are available
📖 **[Why choose LUMENYX?](docs/WHY_LUMENYX.md)**
🌐 **[Bootnodes](bootnodes.txt)** - Network bootstrap nodes
🔧 **[Build from source](docs/INSTALL.md)** - Compile yourself
---
### Check Your Node
**Check if running:**
```bash
tail -n 20 ~/.lumenyx/lumenyx.log
```
If you see "Imported block" or "Prepared block" = working.
---
### Block Explorer (Polkadot.js Apps)
Browsers block insecure WebSocket by default. Use Firefox with this fix:
1. Open Firefox (Chrome won't work)
2. Type in address bar: about:config
3. Click "Accept the Risk and Continue"
4. In search box type: network.websocket.allowInsecureFromHTTPS
5. You will see it set to "false"
6. Click the arrows icon on the right to change it to "true"
7. Close Firefox completely and reopen it
8. Go to: https://polkadot.js.org/apps/?rpc=ws://207.180.204.4:9944
(This is the public Archive node. Or use your own node's IP.)
9. Wait a few seconds - you'll see "LUMENYX Mainnet" in top left
Now you can see blocks, validators, balances, everything.

### 1. Introduction
In 2009, Bitcoin proved that digital scarcity was possible.
In 2015, Ethereum proved that programmable money was possible.
LUMENYX combines both:
- Fixed supply (21,000,000)
- Smart contracts (EVM compatible — standard 18 decimals)
- Fast blocks (2.5 seconds)
- True decentralization (fair launch)
- Zero governance (code is law)
---
### 2. Consensus
Proof of Work with LongestChain.
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Block time | 2.5 seconds |
| Hash function | RX-LX (RandomX-LUMENYX) |
| Mining mode | Fast (Dataset, ~2GB RAM, 5-7x faster) |
| ASIC resistance | Yes (custom SBOX, pointer chasing) |
**RX-LX** is a custom fork of RandomX designed to be ASIC-resistant. Existing RandomX ASICs (Bitmain X5, X9) will produce invalid hashes due to custom SBOX and modified opcodes.
Anyone with a computer can mine. No stake required. No permission needed. No ASIC advantage.
---
### 3. Emission
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Initial reward | ~0.208 LUMO |
| Halving period | 4 years (50,492,160 blocks) |
| Total supply | 21,000,000 LUMO |
Timeline:
- Year 4: 50% mined (~10.5M)
- Year 8: 75% mined (~15.75M)
- Year 12: 87.5% mined (~18.4M)
- Year 16: 93.75% mined (~19.7M)
Same curve as Bitcoin. Proven model.
---
### 4. Smart Contracts
Full EVM compatibility with standard 18 decimals. Deploy Solidity contracts without changes.
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Chain ID | 7777 |
| Decimals | 18 (standard EVM) |
| Ticker | LUMO |
| Gas model | Ethereum-compatible (EIP-1559) |
Everything built on Ethereum can be built on LUMENYX — no decimal workarounds needed.
---
### 5. Transaction Fees
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Fee destination | 100% to miners |
| Fee model | Dynamic (EIP-1559) |
| Elasticity | ±12.5% per block |
Fees adjust automatically based on network demand. All fees go to miners - no burning.
---
### 6. Distribution
- No premine
- No ICO
- No team allocation
- No foundation
- No venture capital
100% distributed through mining. Everyone starts equal.
---
### 7. Governance
None.
The code is the law. No admin keys. No sudo. No upgrades without hard fork.
Like Bitcoin, the protocol is set in stone. Only the community can change it through consensus.
---
### 8. Hard Fork History
| Version | Block | Changes |
|---------|-------|---------|
| v2.2.5 | 125,000 | ASERT difficulty fix |
| v2.3.0 | 440,000 | 18 decimals, fast mining, ticker LUMO |
---
### 9. Technical Parameters For Builders
| Parameter | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| **RPC** | `http://207.180.204.4:9944` |
| **Chain ID** | `7777` |
| **Decimals** | `18` (standard EVM) |
| **Consensus** | PoW with RX-LX algorithm (RandomX fork, CPU only) |
| **Block time** | ~2.5 seconds |
| **Chain** | LUMENYX |
| **Ticker** | LUMO — meaning "light" in Esperanto |
| **EVM** | Full Solidity compatibility |
With MetaMask (or any EVM wallet):
1. Add a new network with the RPC above
2. Chain ID: `7777`, Decimals: `18`, Symbol: `LUMO`
3. Deploy with Hardhat, Foundry, Remix — no workarounds needed
---
### 10. Conclusion
LUMENYX is digital cash for the next era:
- Scarce (21M cap)
- Fast (2.5 sec blocks)
- Programmable (EVM, 18 decimals)
- Decentralized (PoW, no team)
No promises. No roadmap. No marketing.
Just code and consensus.
